GM presentation on LT1, .PDF
Got this from a friend and haven't seen it posted yet? It's the 'official' GM presentation.

A pretty in-depth description of the motor and it's development.

One thing I got from that, that I don't THINK was worded like that in any other presentation, was it will be the most fuel efficient corvette ever. I've seen the "exceeding the 2013 corvette's 26hwy" before, but most fuel efficient ever implies we are looking at 29hwy mpg, as the c5 was rated 28. Granted that was before the epa rating system changed...

Well, if it indeed is rated 29hwy, then it fills both "most fuel efficient" and "exceeds the 2013 corvette's 26hwy" roles. Or if it is rated at 27, there is always the argument that by 2008+ standards, the c5 might only be 27 or 26hwy.
Regardless of real world mpg that is. No one start flaming me telling how their vette gets 48hwy...
