With the recent leaks confirming a 2027 Grand Sport and a new 6th generation 6.7L LS6, we wanted to get your input on how much horsepower you think the new engine will be capable of.
Another look at GM’s internal systems confirms the new 6.7-liter aluminum V8 engine will be the engine in the 2027 Corvette Stingrays, and most likely the E-Rays as well.

GM is expected to bring out the 2027 Corvette Grand Sport next year which will feature a new 6.6L V8 engine called the LS6. Our friend Rick Conti says he has an unofficial sound file of the engine running from inside the car.
Dennis Collins heads out to Victoria, Texas where he rescues a numbers-matching 1965 Corvette Coupe that hasn’t driven more than 200 miles since the mid 1990s, plus we get an update on the Green 1971 LS6 Coupe.
