    Default Corvette "SS" with LS9 for 2008

    In case the information has been tainted with trackable "disinformation" I will summarize but must be vague. I do not rule this out as being an intentional leak.

    - The "Corvette SS" undeniably a go.
    - We are at the very beginning of the program.
    - Will be limited #s
    - Not indicated to be "blue devil".
    - Will be outfitted with a "charged" LS9.
    - This will be a Corvette-only motor not to be in a caddy.
    - The LS9 is a smaller displacement motor than the LS7. <----
    - The "Corvette SS" will be top dog, Z06 will not be.
    - Well over 600 HP.
    - No test/beta/pilot Corvette SS exists in any shape or form. So don't waste your time looking for one yet.
    - Unlike info on some other sites, this Corvette WILL NOT be seen for a very very long time.

    I think there are others that know this info, but there are a lot of shaking knees when it comes to even discussing it.

    To our GM viewing audience, just want to say thanks for keeping the Corvette line exciting and for continuing to take the car to new levels. Great job. Keep up the good work, we love it.

    I remember reading somewhere that the testmule was out on the Nurburgring.

    People knew it was a mule for this car as the supercharger whine can't be mistaken.
