Chevy C8 Corvette Engine Fails After Just 57 Miles

The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C8 is an awesome machine. With a 6.2-liter V8 generating up to 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, the C8 is capable of doing the 0-60 mph sprint in 2.9 seconds and achieving a top speed of 194 mph - when it's working. But that's the problem that many C8...

This is the most powerful C8 on the planet.

Just a random thought, I wonder if the transaxles in these will be common grabs for kit cars. I'm thinking it'd be a fun way to put a powertrain into a Pantera kit car or similar.

This is the same guy that TSP developed the "EL C7" cam for. He was running high 9's cam only in his C7. He's already ran as fast as 10.5 in his C8. I'm very interested to see what he can do with his C8.

I was excited about the c8 until the lunacy. I’m going to wait until the second or third year z06 before I get excited, and that’s if the pricing stabilizes and the early adopters have favorable reviews.

Considering that the last couple gens have had major issues of one sort or another I wouldn't be too excited about getting a first year model.
