Looking at the very back of the transmission, it looks like there's a mainshaft and a pinion shaft visible over/under each other in a cutaway. Looks like either a manual or a dual clutch transaxle if that's what those are. Also I wonder in what form GM incorporated a version of the E-diff in there.
Like my father tells me (especially when he is trying to fix something around the house) “have ye faith”. I believe with the short headers, better tune, and better air induction system, I can see them easily getting 500hp crank. As long as it is more then the ordiginal 465, I will be very happy.
35hp bump is what the gen V small block got by implementing both VVT and DI. Yes, you can get that easy in the aftermarket but in the OEM world IHE can only be improved very slightly.
Same here. I've already started the water torture on SWMBO.
I'm ready to sell my C5 and pull money from the retirement fund for a down payment.
What I'm liking about the engine/trans CAD images is the longitudinal layout rather than a transverse one. This helps explain the long tail end aft of the cockpit.

I am keeping my fingers crossed that my back issues get no worse. My spine is arthritic. I drive my Z06 sparingly now. I start spinal decompression next week. I can only keep my fingers crossed.
I found this pic online and it shows some detail of the rear side scoops. Granted these may be camouflage, but it could provide clues.
Here's the original. And, the outline of the body lines around the side scoops that I think they show. The lines I'm seeing are very different from all the ME renders posted so far.
They are very similar to the C5 outlet scoops on the front fenders. I also thing the square-ish top of the steering wheel is interesting.
Just for the fun of it, I played with the image settings in Photoshop to bring out some details.

So we will have gen6 LT7 and it is absolutely a turbocharged ! Interesting
This is identical to what has been leaked before
I would not say identical, but they do appear to me as the same. The rear diffusers on the photo of the rear fascia wrap around the corner, while the diffuser in the CAD photo does not.
Missing CAD pictures still on Road and Track, CorvettOnLine, CorvetteBlogger, Jalopnik, 2nd largest C7 forum, and several other sites elsewhere. Yesterday, they quickly appeared on eight national media sites, but remain MIA on Detroit News and Detroit Free Press (FREEP).

Yes, I've seen the photos from a couple of days ago.
I was asking about the photos posted by ZERV this morning at 5:30AM.
