“There’s just something about the Chevy LS7.” Oh, Mr. Hennessey, how right you are. He’s talking about the delightful acoustics coming from the 2015 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 HPE650, which is HPE’s even crazier version of the track star, with more than 650 horsepower (without a supercharger). The way it looks and sounds will leave you with such a burning desire that we almost don’t want to share it with our viewers for fear of an instant addiction .Almost.
With some Hennessey magic done to the LS7 V8, the power of the Camaro Z/28 climbed from 505 hp to 670 hp to the crank. The Camaro Z/28 HPE650 seems to still handle like a dream, and makes its way through the test course with ease.
In the beginning of the video we catch an emergency OnStar call with a female responder asking John if everything’s alright. He replies with, “Yeah we’re good, we just accidentally dialed ya – I think I was pulling too many G’s in this bad boy.”
Ah, carry on.
Not the first time, happened in an HPE CTS-V wagon a few years ago. Pretty sure it was actually his wife’s Caddy
