Factory blown SS?

At the bottom, the SS Silvy has the LQ9 6.0 like normal, but look what the 3 asteriks stand for
Will this be in the new SS short cab perhaps?

[99 red silver]

They need to do something in a preformance truck the SS is not a performance truck yet.

all they can muster is 345? The new L is going to be 500hp and 500tq with an optional 6 speed to compete with the Ram SRT-10 and its viper 6 speed.

I'm def. looking forward to that supercharged truck. It's a shame though they put a supercharger on the 6.0L and it still makes the the same HP numbers. We all know it will make more, it just sux they did that. Who know's though, it may just be bogus numbers.
If that is the HP rating, we all know it will make a lot more than advertised,


later,

No no no....The asteriks mean that it will be a supercharged 6.0.
The 6.0 comes stock with 345HP, so if it's blown, it will probably be in the 450HP range, more I hope.
I dunno...we'll see.

oh good, i was hoping it would have more, i'd like to see 500hp, heheheh

[GMCwantsLS1]

hell at least 501HP got to get the upper hand on those "L's"!!

I could have SWORE someone posted 345 above me (i&#39;ll check the log to see if anything was deleted or edited), that is why i said it.. or allen said something in an IM.. not sure.

But unless its in a standard cab, i still call it a waste.. no need to haul 600 or so lbs of AWD shit around, plus the ext cab portion.. "sport trucks" are to be fast, not high hp and weigh 3 tons

I have heard this is a typo. Seems strange to me that it would be so specific, but us folks over at SivleradoSS.com have heard from some inside sources that it is not going to happen in 04. So don&#39;t get your hopes up.




On the plus side, the current LQ9 6.0L does supercharge quite well with a Magnacharger
