The ZL-1 goes back to the days of the Stingray (not Sting Ray, there is a difference.) Anyway the ZL-1 was a race motor that they put into 2 corvettes Along with 60 or 70 COPO Camaros)in '69. All aluminum 427 motor pumping out somewhere between 500-600 hp. It weighed 50lbs less than the 350. Making it the ultimate performer. For me the ZL-1 has to be one of the very best incarnations of the Corvette and shouldn't be exploited by Chevy, for the crap they make today, like the ZO6 was.

FOR SHAME!!!!!
Bob Lutz has implied that their will be a trim level above the Z06 and it will be able to "suck the doors off" the Viper SRT-10 (or Coupe if they make it) or the Ford GT. Hmmm, what could this supervette possibly be?
