You tell my buddy Tom to think Chevy, no more problems.
I thought he might be interested in the latest from Chevy.
The new ZZ572/620 is built around an all-new Gen VI tall deck Bow tie cylinder block. This all new race block is filled with a forged 4340 steel crank with 4.375 inch stroke, shot peened forged 4340H-beam rods, and forged aluminum pistons with full floating wrist pins. Hard core race parts for hard core long term durability!
The redesigned rectangular port aluminum cylinder heads result in a pump gas friendly 9.6 to 1 compression ratio. A hydraulic roller cam with 0.632 inch lift actuates the stainless steel valves. And, of course, hardened chromemoly retainers, roller rockers, and duel valve springs are used to complete the valvetrain.
A new GM tall deck single plane intake manifold and 850 CFM Demon carburetor deliver enough air and fuel to make the 620 horsepower at 5500RPM and 650 ft. lbs. of torque at 4500RPM. Ignition is handled by a GM HEI distributor.
Pump gas friendly, massive torque and horsepower, all from GM, the ZZ572/620 is for those who consider excess to be barely enough.
Available in both long block and deluxe engine configurations later in 2003.
