Would be nice- unfortunately us C5 guys would have to tear it down to change the reluctor wheel to make it work with our cars computer...
C6 guys would certainly benefit!
I think the 427 Z06 motor was $15K when it came out....they will probably tack on another 5K for this one!
It is a sick motor! 638HP!

Yeah just a matter of time. I bet you could get it with a reluctor wheel for a c5 no problem. The only thing is the price. doubt it will be anything under 20k. If you got that in a c5 you better change everything else in the driveline. It won't last long with that much power.

I think it would be a pain in the can. I think something might have to be done with the rack to get the big rib belt it comes with....
