Be wary, wary quite were hunting Vette "SS"... New Pics of LS9 Engine folks!
(Admin edit: The member edited the post and removed the links to the pictures for his own reasons, but they are still available here . Just to be clear, we have not received any requests to take down any pictures... not like it would matter at this point anyway considering 20,000+ people have already seen them.)
I think I've got exclusive pictures of the latest quoted "650 BHP" Corvette SS engine. Folks, this may already out on the web if not here's your first Pictures of the new LS9 Corvette 650 HP engine.... Enjoy!

Here's the deal.... I live in Detroit. I had relatives that orginally worked on the C6 Z06 project... Look up my orginal posts in 2003/2004 when I spec'd out the current Z06 in 2003. I have associates that work at local contract engine build companies near the Warren Tech center. Hopefully this is enough background info for you without causing folks to lose their jobs?
Yes, it is a Super charged 6.2L I'll post the pictures. This engine is no one off this was polished and dyno'd ready for the show! 650 HP folks! It's true.

In Norms defense this is a post from 3/10/2004 I just found doing a quick search. I'd say he knows something...

have seen almost final assembly diagrams of the ZO6 and can tell you that the front of the ZO6 has an air scoop just infront of the hood line. In addition, the engine will be a 7.0 L producing 495 to 500 hp. Special brakes will also be in the ZO6 package. Battery placement will be in the rear of the car.

I was told Corvette SS and the "Blue Devil". I think it was code words for the current platform and a new one in the works!

Ahhhhh, I new one of you folks (GMMers???) would come out of the wood works! No.... LSA with a blower on the top... Sorry. The LSA was on a the engine stand around the corner of the shop. The heads, coil packs, intake, etc.. didn't even look close to the same. However, they were working with the Cadillac Escalade engine too! Hmmmmm????
On hindsight. I suspect the General could pull the plug on this package right upto launch.....or just doing marketing studies. I was told this engine was going to be rolled out to the press.....an Escalade with 650 HP all right!
