Performance
Sounds like a win.
A testament to unrelenting craftsmanship, the hand-built LT6 5.5L engine features an all-new flat-plane crankshaft design. Strike fear in your competition as it hits a redline of 8600 rpm – 2000 rpm higher than Stingray. And with a balanced mid-engine design, more of its impressive power is directed to the rear wheels where it matters most.
BLOCK/LUBE SYSTEM
4.4 in./111.76 mm bore centers with 4.1 in./104.25 mm bore help continue a rich heritage of Chevrolet small block engines. Continuously variable flow delivery coupled with six scavenge stages helps ensure optimal oil delivery for the ultimate in track capability.
FLAT-PLANE CRANK
A flat-plane crankshaft allows balanced bank to bank air flow and provides low rotational inertia. Light weight forged titanium connecting rods, and low-profile forged pistons allow rapid rpm changes as well as high engine speeds.
DOHC VALVETRAIN
Titanium intake valves with dual valve springs enable precise valvetrain control at high engine speeds, providing optimal track performance.
CYLINDER HEADS
Ports and combustion chambers have been CNC machined for improved airflow, giving the Z06 race car control for engine breathing and combustion.
AIR INTAKE
Dual throttle bodies and triple tuning valves enable more airflow and optimize engine breathing at high speeds.
SUPERB STOPPING POWER.
A car this capable requires some serious braking ability, and its standard 6-piston front/4-piston rear brakes are designed to give you just that. Available 4-wheel antilock, 4-wheel disc carbon ceramic brakes provide state-of-the-art braking performance for track demands.
Interior
EYES ON THE PRIZE.
The available Performance Data Recorder can help you become a better driver, and a Head-Up Display, you’ll never lose sight of the track ahead.
Exterior
SCULPTED TO SOAR
The striking exterior of Z06 is as commanding as it is functional. The standard ground effects and spoiler optimize aerodynamic drag and powertrain cooling efficiency. Replaceable spoiler wickerbills, rear brake cooling ducts, removable front fascia panel and front underwing stall Gurneys increase downforce, keeping Z06 poised and planted as you round the track.
