Z06 too slow? ZR1 not enough HP? Well, guess you could always get you this 'vette (German article)

Not sure if I'd really like that LS7 bored to 7.6L PLUS twin turbo ... the ZR1 might be the slightly safer way to go ... ;)

Is that because of the length of the bore? I thought the LS9 had a longer bore....specifically for the supercharger.

Yeah, probably some of both ... ~.08L per cylinder is probably more than you could bore it over ...
