Curator’s note
The C8 Z06 takes the mid-engined Corvette and gives it the LT6, a 5.5-litre flat-plane-crank V8 developed alongside the C8.R race car. With 670 hp it is described by Chevrolet as the most powerful naturally aspirated production V8.
The story
The LT6 shares its basic design with the engine of the Corvette C8.R that raced at Le Mans and Daytona. It makes peak power at 8,400 rpm.
The Z06 body is wider than the Stingray’s to cover bigger wheels, and the Z07 package adds a large rear wing, canards and carbon-ceramic brakes.
