The original engine for the ZR1 was a twin turbo set up, but there were reliability and cost issues. When Eaton came out with its brand new 4 rotor design, GM snagged it up as it gave the same effency as a turbo with no lag. Its compact design was also worked out well for keeping weight down.
Ahahahah, nothing the Mustang does scares the Vette team. Mustang GT500 can barely keep up with a LS2 C6....not to mention the new LS3.

The LS7 will be replaced with the LSA, a ligher duty version of teh LS9. The LS7 is very costly to produce. CTS-V has the LSA, and the Camaro is likely to get one too.

and yes, this car has been out in the news for a while.
