Awesome! - however, they are talking about te Z06 while standing next to, what one can only think, is a C6 convertible... also, they refer to the engine, in the buld process as a small block... is the Z06's 7 liter, 427 cubic inch V8 a small block???

it might be 7 liters but it's still only a development of the classic 5.7 liter LS block. I mentioned this in another thread where there was controversy over the LS7 being used in the lemans series CTSv but that was destroked.

I guess what we lack is a true, hard-fast rule about what qualifies and engine as a "small block" or "big block"....

Dug up that thread from GMI again, it clears pretty much everything up.
