I just read that the 2006 Lade's get a 6.2L L92 V8 with 395-400 hp.

Awesome. Looks like LS7 technology meets the smaller engines!

Excellent!!

What do you mean they meet smaller engines? to my knowledge the Corvette still used a 5.7 L. If the new lade uses a 6.2 wouldnt that make it bigger?

The 5.7L is dead. The Vette is 6.0L or 7.0L (Z06) powered now.

The 6.0 Escalade motor (LQ4) is growing up to the L92, which is 6.2L.

Not sure if the Vette will get the 6.2 displacement, I'll have to dig on that one.

But a lot of the goodies (ports) on the LS7 is finding its way to the L92. So it is making a 50 hp jump in power for 0.2L of displacment.

The Vette won't be going to the 6.2L, most likely. As far as I know, it's going to serve a lot of truck and SUV duty, and stay away from the cars--just like the current truck's 6.0L did. The Vette's 6.0L is already at 400hp anyway; just look for more to come its way, a little bit at least, in the future.

Here is some Down Under air flow specs on the L92:
