Hopefully that engine makes power way over 5000 rpm because that would be disappointing. That car should be making 700+ hp.

I was planning on my next car being the C8. But if the C8 goes mid engine I will be looking elsewhere.

So a big reason I like these OHV engines is obviously the torque, but isn't it entirely possible that the DOC motor could make more hp at the top and equivalent or more torque at the bottom?
DOHC won't bug me if they don't shift the power band so high that it sucks everything out of the bottom of the curve. |

oh very interesting. Someone really dropped the ball if this is true.

I mean they did fit the lt5 in the same spot as the lt1/4. It had decent displacement and anice powerband. Also i remember one build where they spun one over 9k. But i highly doubt they will care to make a big cube dohc with the way everything is going forced induction.

Hmmm....intersting. A 6.2L all aluminum DOHC. That would be a freakin BEAST!!!!! Or maybe a small displacement TT DOHC V8 powerplant.
