My thought on the original leak pictures was it appeared to me to be a smaller displacement engine. Any guesses on the displacement? In the 4.2 to 4.4. range?

One of how many engine options? I guess there might be more than one engine option. Maybe not initially, but eventually.

These days it's especially hard to tell by looking at an engine of its displacement.

IIRC, there has been info leaked of a 4.4L TT and a 5.5L TT.

A 5.5L TT would be a beast.

Well, we definitely know now we are not getting the traditional quad tip, center location exhaust. This is still very cool peice of info. DOHC for sure and does seem smaller. Twin turbo, very cool. But I still feel like most of us were really craving body panel CAD’s more then Engine CADs. Nevertheless, thank you ZERV for this awesome information!

I'm guessing that's the Cadillac Engine. Same one should also be going into the CT6 (with less power).

This latest one must be a full shot of the engine that was labeled "Gen6 LT7" in one of the earlier posts.
