Sneek peek: Corvette ZR1 6.9 L LS9 V8

This one got leaked out by the guys over at Jalopnik.com yesterday. This is a sneek peek of the 2009 Corvette ZR1s 6.9 Liter LS9 V8 engine. Horsepower should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 650hp. The LS9 is a Supercharged version of the 6.2 L LS3 used in the stock Corvette. The supercharger also features unique integrated twin intercoolers for optimum performance. The new ZR1 will debut in January at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

Since there is not much info coming out of GM. We'll keep you posted as it develops. We'll be in Detroit for the unveiling so it should be very exciting.
