Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - GM Reveals 4.2L LTA Twin-Turbocharged V8

It has been rumored for a while that GM was working on two DHOC engines, a 4.2L and a 5.5L, with both N/A and TT versions.

I noticed that this new engine is being built at the Bowling Green plant. That's where Corvettes are made. It has also been rumored that the new mid-engined corvette will get a 5.5L DHOC engine that will eventually have a twin turbo setup (there may be an N/A version of the 5.5 for the base mid-engine vette).

This could mean that there will be a Z/28, and it could have an N/A version of the 5.5L engine. Or a TT version, who knows?

But, this new development is confirming the rumors of the new engine lineup, so stay tuned for a 5.5L version of this new lineup.
