      Bitchin' car!! Those pics were all over the net, probably 2 seconds after they were leaked. Someone at GM must be in trouble? With regards to the dry sump, there is no oil fill, so it looks like it may be true?

      I am guessing that they are using cast pistons to hold tighter clearances and reduce the piston slap noise.

      I have seen different pics of that Corvette and in my opinion it is the nicest one I have ever seen. Sounds like one heck of a performance package to go with it!
