Also look for a supercharged version of the same engine, to be called the LS9, that's reported to make over 600 hp, in the upcoming "super Vette".

This is awesome news for folkes that just want to do a cam swap and some LT headers. It will be easy to make 450-500 RWHP with LTs and a cam with the L92 heads!
