430 hp for 2008 Chevrolet Corvette

The standard 2008 Chevrolet Corvette gets a handful of upgrades, including a new 6.2L LS3 V8.

The larger engine is capable of 430 hp, compared to the 400 hp of the outgoing 6.0L LS2 V8. Torque is bumped up to 424 lb-ft. In addition, there’s a new high-flow cylinder head, larger valves, an acoustically-tuned intake manifold, a dual-stage exhaust system and an improved interior. We also see a black (glass?) roof.

1. This Leaves The Gap Between The Z06, and standard vette at “only” 75 hp…. Why bring it any closer?

2. Why bring it any closer? Hmmm, because I am ordering one loaded with options for $20,000.00 less than the standard Z06 price… Weeeeeee. Man is this going to be a fun summer…
