Chevrolet Camaro LS7 Concept
Designed with the essential idea of showcasing the potential of the new Chevrolet Camaro as a weekend bracket racers, the LS7 Concept sets the stage for a COPO car that is ready to hit the drag strip. Following in the footsteps of Chevy dealers like Don Yenko and Fred Gibb in the late 1960s, the LS7 Concept is built with a number of features that allow it to serve as both a racecar and a daily driver.
The LS7 crate engine (part number 17802397) is given a high-performance camshaft (part number 12480033) for approximately 550 horsepower as well as bolting on specialized headers and an air intake system from GM Performance Parts. An engine controller (part number 19166567) is necessary to get this engine running. Handling all that power is a production Tremec 6060 six-speed manual with a Hurst shifter. To handle the torque output, the LS7 Concept also includes a lowered ride height, a driveshaft safety loop, Brembo brakes, GM Performance Parts exhaust system, and custom 20-inch wheels wrapped in drag strip-ready rubber.
The LS7 Concept is designed to look the part of a drag racer, with a Victory Red paintjob and matte black accents on the hood and taillamp panel. The interior is also minimalist in nature - without extra interior trimmings and accessories to minimize overall mass for a quicker elapsed time.
With the right vehicle, enthusiasts can take cues from the LS7 Concept, as GM Performance Parts' LS7 package contains a fully assembled version of the engine, including the oil pan and necessary oil reservoir. So, go ahead and build the racecar of your dreams with the LS7 Concept as your blueprint.
