Default 8.8l 650hp V10 Uber-Z06 might see the light of day...

One of the latest super-rumours is swirling around the supposed 8.8l 10 cylinder aluminum block engines. These are pegged as the new-age replacements for the current truck 8.1l big blocks.

Numbers are supposedly around 600hp. These engines would be intended for the Tahoes and Suburbans, Escalades and Hummers.

Then ------ the story goes that it will have a 8.8l 650hp hi-po variant squeezed into the long rumoured Blue Devil Uber-Vette...

Could y'all imagine that? A sub 3000# 650hp Vette.. The Enzo replacement had better be un-fucking believable to even stand a chance..

BTW - the C6 Z06 latest rumours include aluminium frame, sub 3000# weight, 500hp+ and some killer lines...
