The LT6 is what is in the C8.R. Now, the one thing I am not 100% positive on is to if Corvette Racing allows that engine to always run to 8,600 RPM or if they regulate the engine to lower RPM's a large part of the time. The reason I even mention this is that, while watching their livestream of LeMans, when they were showing the in-car, drive-view footage, I only saw them going to just under 7,000 RPM. Maybe that was just a LeMans thing and related to a fuel strategy thing though.

well from what i heard those done make 670hp because they are detuned due to rules and regulations and normally they use a intake restrictor to make it more fair i believe
