For those muscle fans out there looking to flex with prodigious levels of horsepower, the latest Chevrolet Camaro SS and LT1 trim levels are a fantastic place to start. Still, there are some enthusiasts out there that still want more than what’s offered direct from the factory, and that’s where Callaway Cars comes in.
For those that don’t know, Callaway Cars is a U.S.-based tuner that specializes in high-performance General Motors products. Originally founded in 1977, Callaway Cars has a long resume filled with impressive speed machines, and now, the new Chevrolet Camaro SC630 is poised to join the fray, as featured in this brief one-minute, 24-second video highlight.
Offered for either the LT1 or SS trim level, the new Callaway Chevrolet Camaro SC630 upgrades the Chevy’s standard naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 LT1 engine with a new GenThree TVS2300 supercharger system. The blower is paired with a number of supporting mods, including a TripleCooled intercooler system, high-flow intake, and powertrain management calibration.
The end result is a boost in output to a maximum of 630 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 610 pound-feet of torque at 4,400 rpm. That’s a substantial 175-horsepower and 155-pound-feet increase over the stock engine’s 455 horsepower and 455 pound-feet of torque.
Critically, the Callaway Chevrolet Camaro SC630 comes with Callaway’s three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty, which overlaps with the factory GM warranty.
In addition to the power modes, the new Callaway Chevrolet Camaro SC630 also rocks a number of aesthetic upgrades, including unique door sill panels, floor mats, key fobs, and badging. There’s also a Callaway-branded carbon fiber engine cover and underhood build plaque for authenticity.
Check out Callaway’s Chevrolet Camaro SC630 in the brief video below. Pricing is set at just under $54,000 for an LT1 model with a six-speed manual transmission.

Great with the overlapping warranty (3 years and 36,000 miles)
Ya know, Dodge always has TV commercials showing their performance cars doing burnouts and generally doing what they were designed for. It would be nice if GM even had ONE Camaro commercial in a similar way, possibly showing a ZL-1 or a Callaway drifting!
There’s actually a Callaway-almost everything GM available, which for some cars start at $20 grand. A Callaway tweak pushed a ZO6 Vette North of 200mph last year. I can’t wait to see what they will do with the new C8.
Most importantly the Callaway upgrade retains the powertrain warranty!
630HP is huge. A Trumpism 🙂
Bigly.
One has to read between the lines as the Callaway SC630 Camaro is the most powerful; but the 2020 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 supercharged 6.2L V8 makes 650 hp with the difference being Callaway’s car is a Camaro and not a Camaro ZL1.
There is a Callaway Camaro ZL1 with 750 horsepower.
I always wonder why Callaway reuses the suffocating stock airbox, instead of installing an open-element, high-flowing, conical intake. Coming from a passionate car builder, it always makes me wonder. On my builds, an intake swap and exhaust are always my first “to-do”.
The main reason is EPA,only the Factory box is approved, none of the aftermarkets are, and most of their claims of HP increase is dubious at best. Callaway does modify the factory box and complies with EPA, thereby keeping your Factory warranty intact
