VEHICLE HIGHLIGHTS:

LS2 6.0L V-8 with 400 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. torque that exhales through a custom-built performance exhaust from the catalyst rearward
Heavy-duty 4L70-E four-speed automatic transmission with floor shifter
Heavy-duty 9.5-inch rear axle with a locking differential for added traction and a short 3.73:1 rear axle ratio for rapid acceleration.
Weighing in at under 3,500lbs and with Front disc brakes measuring over 12 inches that are sourced from the full-size Chevrolet Silverado; rear disc brakes from the Chevrolet TrailBlazer; the SS should have no trouble hauling to a stop.
Lowered suspension riding on brushed nickel-plated 20-inch Silverado SS rims
Stylized interior with unique trim, bezels, and seats
Custom exterior package with unique grille, fascias, flares, rocker extensions and tonneau cover.


GM reached back in its musclecar era for this SS hauler. An air-induction system, tailored straight from the '70 SS Chevelle platform, provides cool air from the windscreen. At high speeds, the windscreen will build air pressure at its base. This pressure will help the pistons fill the engine's cylinders through the air induction ducts.

Now, if they actually produce it...

gm had 20 years to produce a v-8 s-10...never happened...we'll see if this ever comes to fruition.

I dunno... There's ALOT of buzz about this one. The concept got alot more publicity than most of them do.. I think we may see this one...

I know one guy who will be trading in his Colorado for one if it ever see production.

[Mep_q8]

a 2nd who'll be trading in his Trailblazer for this one as well

I hope they make it, but I just don't think it will ever happen. Me personally...I want a Diesel Colorado.

I'm holding out for the 7.0L CTS-V.....

only problem is getting a rear to handle it.

Needs to go Z06 rear suspension to help it out... hehehe
The 06 CTSV got some beefing for the LS2 don't know how it will hold up to serious HP though..

Thats one sick ride. I had a reg. cab. 2k5 4cyl colly w/ 3.73's and that thing moved nice. Gotta be the 4 valve, DOHC design. Even w/ Tq. Man. that thing burned some rubber. This LS2 in that light truck w/ some tracbars, should run 10s consistently.
