Corvette Z06 performance straight out of the crate!
The LS1 was a milestone in efficiency, and power. Then, the GM engineers outdid themselves by taking the LS1 to the next level with a bigger cam, intake and more compression. They call this amazing 350 cubic inch small block the LS6, and you'll see the LS6 as standard equipment is the amazing C5 Corvette Z06 and Cadillac CTS-V. Together with the sophisticated engineering from GM, these two cars utilize the LS6 small block to dominate their class.
