Well, you all might already know this, but a guy at Laguna Seca Raceway (however you spell it) got a pic with 7.0L stamped on the block. He also got a block number which does not match any of the previous block numbers. Also, a carbon fiber intake cover was on the engine. This very well could be next Z06 engine. There's alot of talk, hopefully we'll see it for real. A 500hp, 3000lb, 427 would be one heck of a supercar! What a supertruck the SS Silverado could be with a similar engine! Chris

That would be sweet. Not taking away from the current Silverado SS, but a RC SB RWD with a 7.0L 50hp LS2 V8 and a six-speed......Look out Ram SRT-10. :mad:drivings.gif

Yea, this is something we discussed on the ZR-1.net for a while.

 

I've been a Corvette fan for years and I'm split between two feelings on this car.

 

1) 7.0L is absolutly insane. Nobody in their right mind would put gas in a car like this. 6.0L DOHC is the only way to go.

 

2) A DOHC Corvette would be another ZR-1. The ZR-1 is special and shouldn't be duplicated. Go with the 7.0L rod motor....

 

Guess at the money that I make its not gonna matter anyhow.

The rear meats on that thing are HUGE! Add another 100 hp and the pumpkin will barely fit between them??? :flag:

 

I an mot fond of the read brake "ducts" that seem to take away from the flow of the lines on the car, but with 700 hp on tap, I don't think anyone will notice, even IF they can get their vision to focus fast enough! :crazy:

      Grumpy Bears 2015 Silverado 2WD

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Gas Prices

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."
