A bit of speculation, I have read that people think the next Z06 will have this flat plane twin turbo engine, I don't think so, I think this high $$$ engine will be reserved for the ZR1.

I think then next Z06 will be another supercharged push rod engine. I was listening to a podcast and the host was told (off the record, at the Corvette launch event in LA) that the company that he worked for had finished developing a supercharger for the C8.

It also makes sense to me, because GM seems to be trying to keep the price points in line with the previous generation, 'if you could afford a C6 Z06 you will be able to afford a C7 Z06'

We shall see, GM brought a mid-engine car to market for a lower price then anyone thought possible, so they may be able to bring a new twin-turbo quad-cam flat plane engine too, but I would be surprised.
