Because the 7 liter displacement is the internal swept volume of the engine. It doesn't at all change the external dimensions.

Exactly. Even the prior LS engines were the same dimensions between the LS1 346 and LS7/427.

Just saying that an LS/LT engine is the same outside dimensions whether it’s a 4.8 truck engine or a 7.0 427 LS7, the CID or Liter displacement comes from the bore and stroke inside the block, they can go up to 464 with the standard short deck that came in production vehicles, and I think 495 with a billet crank, the aftermarket tall decks can go over 500 cid.

Those days are coming to an end fast… Electrification in combination with ICE is the future of many performance car manufacturers… Corvette has to stay relevant and the only to do that and compete on the stage is to adapt. First Z06, then Eray, next ZR1, then ZORA.. Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren & Porsche are Corvettes competitors and are killing it with electrification. The future is here.

A revised LS7 should have been in the C8 Z cars. There was no reason to build the Ferrari wannabe overly complicated LT6. The LT6 development dollars should have gone toward reducing weight by 500lbs. GM needs to take a lesson from Porsche in iteration instead reinventing the wheel every model. Since Tadge isn’t allowed to buy his own personal Ferrari, he’s trying to turn the Corvette into one.
