Not much better than an LS3. The engine is producing more power for sure based on the posted dynos but with the added weight of the C7 and a high DA may explain somewhat of a disappointing time. I'm sure will see much better with cooler air.

Looks like it has strong potential to go high 11s / 12 flat... 100% stock on stock tires, in decent-perfect track & DA conditions.

I see the C7 as a step above the LS3 like the LS3 was to the LS2. Not a lot but a tad. More than a tad perhaps in the handling department. Quite a step blow the Z06 however in 1/4 mile performance but maybe almost equal on the round track. |

C6 - 4.5 0-60 Z06 - 3.9 0-60 C7 - 4.1 0-60 I'd say the C7 did quite well. Especially cosidering it was the heavier loaded model.

C7 is a monster. I can only imagine what some forced induction can do to this motor.
C7 Z06 i would imagine will be jaw dropping |

BTW... although a tick over 2 mph slower, Hennessey's pass still replicated R&T's with the 7-spd m/t!
