    You know, a lot of fuss was made about Ford and Le Mans with the 50th Anniversary of their historic win, and it deserves recognition. But I wonder when more people are gonna acknowledge the absolute dominance of PM Corvettes? 8 ALMS championships in a row, 7 24 hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring class wins in 10 years. No matter who you are that’s incredibly impressive.

    The crazy part is it achieved those numbers at freaking 5400RPM WITH restrictors. Pulled like a fucking diesel out of corners at 2500RPM. Sheer INSANITY. Unrestricted supposedly these motors would have made 750 hp / 750 lb-ft of torque at 6500+ RPM, and would probably sound even more insane.

    • @ImmortanDan
      @ImmortanDan 3 роки тому +10

      Chevy uses a pushrod (Overhead Valve, OHV) valvetrain on its V8s. This design, which most other manufacturers consider archaic, doesn't allow very high RPMs and typically only lets you have 2 valves per cylinder, but it takes up much less space and is lighter than dual overhead cams (as used on Mercedes and Ford V8s) - and this means you can stuff a higher displacement engine under the same hood. The V8 in this particular car is 7 liters or 427 cubic inches, and revs only to 6200 RPM - as such it produces a sound that is higher in intensity (because with every combustion stroke you use more air-fuel mixture, so the explosion is louder) but lower in frequency (less RPM).
      Or at least that's why I think it sounds like that, I haven't studied it too much.

    @poly_g6068 3 місяці тому

    This is the most overpowered, most slippery and aerodynamic Corvette they ever made. It cut through the air like the wing wasn't there. No canards on the front either, so they risked much more lift, which probably could understeer the car more when needed. It definitely had enough torque to break free if you looked at the pedal wrong. Imagine giving a 427-powered bar of soap the grip of european racing slicks. Bad decision as many competitors quickly found.
