Looks like the 650hp Z06 motor is now available as a crate motor from GM. Think we will now see people putting them in boats?

bad link, here is another working one http://autoweek.com/article/sema-sho...70-camaro-sema

I have seen a lot of news on these lately.

Same interest on the 427. So whats the deal with the COPO 427? Its rated at 455 HP but they run under a 9 sec 1/4 and pull the front wheels 3 feet.

Thats a lot more then 455 HP.

Why not, the 530hp supercharged 'LSA' made it to GM's marine line up a while back. Some ski boats and Jet boats offered it.

Thanks! Not sure why it didn't work but yours has more info anyway.

Anyone know what the price is?

MSRP $15, 625.
I would wait for it to hit GMPP dealers in a little bit to find out what the over the counter price will be.

Here's a snapshot of what's going in the GMPP catalog:

Is GM trying to do horsepower ratings like its 1967 again?

Some of the stuff is rated at 600 HP and some stuff is rated at 450 that is obviously 650+ maybe 700+.

That sure would look nice in my 240Z

455 HP Yeah Right! Probably a little more....

The sandbag hp quotes are for motors that qualify for various drag racing classes - stock, SS, and etc..... - just like the old days. Ye ha !
