Is that a 8 or 10 rib belt?

It's the purported BlueDevil engine.

It exists, and will become production. Either it (or a derivative) will be in future Vettes and Caddys.

This is it. Thanks to an anonymous tipster we have what appear to be the very first and clearest shots yet procured of the 2009 LS9 6.2-liter V8 engine powering the 2009 Corvette ZR1 -- something we weren't expecting to see until the Detroit Auto Show in January. But, since information yearns to be free -- and whoa, nelly, do these shots show off some serious information on what will be the most serious piece of weaponry in the General's quiver come next year -- here they are and here's what we know. Essentially what you're looking at is what appears to be a standard twin-screw-type supercharger mounted below a highly efficient air-to-water intercooler system. Now, we can't speculate if it's tied into the engine system or if it has an independent radiator system -- but we feel pretty confident all of this is a one-off, which means the General's running the show on every single horsepower above and beyond the stock horse output from the 6.2-liter V8 it all sits atop. Gearheads, your engine pr0n awaits in the photogallery below. While you check that out we're going to go and hide from GM's shock troopers. Hey, does anyone know the number for the witness protection program?

Now where is that retard that posted does "gm even try". bet that mouth breather won't be able to figure out what I'm referring to.

[Slow ET]

i dont see belt slip being much of an issue with this setup :lol:

[KillerSS]

I wonder what else in the LSX line up that this new supercharger might bolt up to...
