Quoted: 10.3 liters “Framed at the largest and most powerful engine Chevrolet Performance has ever made, the ZZ632 create engine produces a head-spinning 1,004 horsepower and 876 pound-feet of torque when fed 93-octane gasoline. Peak power arrives at 6,600 rpm, while peak torque arrives 5,600 rpm. Redline is recommended at 7,000 rpm. “The ZZ632 sits at the top of our unparalleled crate engine lineup as the king of performance,” said director of the Performance and Racing Propulsion Team, Russ O’Blenes. “It delivers incredible power, and it does it on pump gas.” Highlights include eight port injectors and CNC-machined high-flow aluminum heads. The heads are equipped with symmetrical intake and exhaust ports, thus ensuring all cylinders produce the similar power output. The technology is dubbed RS-X Symmetrical Port cylinder heads as a nod to Ron Sperry, who also designed the symmetrical ports on the Chevy Small Block Gen III LS1 V8 cradled by the 1997 Chevy Corvette.” https://i.postimg.cc/SxPTSGYK/07181-FFD-311-F-4841-AC3-D-FF7059-C112-E5.jpg" target="_blank">https://i.postimg.cc/SxPTSGYK/07181-FFD-311-F-4841-AC3-D-FF7059-C112-E5.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/J7gGQDXk/0-FEE5-C72-F590-4-F89-B71-D-4-F032-C78-A76-A.jpg" target="_blank">https://i.postimg.cc/J7gGQDXk/0-FEE5-C72-F590-4-F89-B71-D-4-F032-C78-A76-A.jpg 1004 HP View Quote Just wait until the twin turbskies get slapped upon the beast. |

Quoted: Sad thing is, you can get a junkyard LS and build it to the same or greater spec's for a fraction of the costs. View Quote False. A 5.3 or 6.0 can certainly make 1000 plus peak power, but it will not have the off idle instant response and torque of a 10.3. Why do you think those little 5.3’s take forever to build boost before they bump in at the drag strip? Not needed with a 10.3 just roll in at idle and you’re ready to go. |

Chevy should put it in a limited edition Vette. 100 units or so? Would sell out pretty much instantly.

Quoted: This is a factory engineered GM engine with a warranty. You really cant compare that to your ebay turbo POS garage build. View Quote LOL ok then. Plenty of reliable junkyard LS builds that would smoke it for way less. Be mad. Why are you bringing in turbos to this? Did I mention turbos? No. |

No. View Quote Chassis, suspension, weight, trans, gear ratio, converter, and many more things play a major factor. As far as a street car low rpm torque matters for the fun factor so that is where the larger cubic inch motor shines. |

I would like to see a concentration on a few Turbo'd V6s available. The GN platform was pretty crazy and has a large following. I own a LSA setup

Thats cool and all but a 632 is nothing new what so ever. Hell we built our old 632 in the late 90s/early 2000s and multiple engine builders sell a comparable engine. If GM doesn't beat the current price point only morons who fell for the 502s will buy them because they don't know any better.

It’s pretty rad. I bet it’s not really a street motor tho. Probly got 13.1 or so compression so pump gas is out.
I got a 548 with 1000hp but it’s 14.5-1 and runs on 112 octane at the minimum. Just bought a 5 gallon can of gas to move it around the garage and it was 81 bucks. Drive it to a car shows every now and then and it get 2.8mpg if I keep my foot out of it. Haha |

View Quote As someone with a 600hp Big Block and two Turbo'd 6.0L, you are right, but with the right converter the 6.0L will light most turbo's pretty instantly. I love my big block, it'll pull my vehicle up around the mountains at almost off idle without much issue. Now throw a couple 88mm on a Big Block and you get the best of everything. |

You need to look for a Kasse based 500+ cube BOSS motor for a comparison.
But you wont be getting that kind of price. Chevy doing this for under 10k is HUGE... Quoted: How does this compare to ford's godzilla? This a case of one upping competition? Or different animal torque wise. Eta Chevy is twice as powerful different animal Godzilla . Cost: $8,150 cnet.com Compression ratio: 10.5:1 Fuel system: MPFI Cylinder bore: 4.22 in (107.2 mm) Manufacturer: Ford Motor Company Power output: : 300 hp (224 kW) at 3,750 rpm; 350 hp (261 kW) at 3,900 rpm; 430 hp (321 kW) at 5,500 rpm; Torque output: : 425 lb·ft (576 N·m) at 3,250 rpm; 468 lb·ft (635 N·m) at 3,900 rpm; 475 lb·ft (644 N·m) at 4,050 rpm; View Quote |

Quoted: Just looked up the specs. It says 12.1 compression. That’s really pushin it for 93 octane. Mite be able to get by with E85 but even that’s pushin it.

Good e85, will do a lot more than what people think and run cooler than leaded fuel, obviously nothing close to as cool as methanol though. |

"According to Chevrolet Performance, a single example of the ZZ632 endured over 200 simulated drag-racing passes on a dynamometer during development."
"A single example" did the rest of them blow up but one made it? 200 "drag racing passes"? what? 200 8 second max throttle loads? Let me know when it does a 24 hrs of Lemans simulated pass. |

View Quote With the EPA trying to fuck over the aftermarket and anything with a VIN. This engine is the king of "salad days". Anyone serious about racing ahould buy 3 of them and stack them in a corner some place. I remember when the 572s came out like 20 years ago and the legendary status some of those first run motors have. |

Mite be able to get by with E85 but even that’s pushin it. I'm running 11.9/12-1 on my big inch Windsor stroker combo. It runs fine on 93. Granted I'd never put an engine like mine together for a customer just because it has a pretty stout solid roller cam in it but for the non moron who knows to keep coolant temps in check and at least check lash at the oil changes it's really not bad. BTW, I got 20K out of my last set of Comp lifters with pressure oiling. My car sees the rev limiter at least once every time I drive it. Sometimes more. Flat top piston, small chamber, good plug location go a long ways... ETA....I've tried a couple of different race gasses and it will make a small amount more power but I road trip my Cobra all over so I'll take 30 less HP for pump gas availability. |
