In 2025, the Corvette world buzzed with debates over two incredible engines for the Z06 and ZR1. Both were built for speed but with distinct personalities. The Z06’s naturally aspirated 5.5L flat-plane crank V8, known as the LT6, delivered 670 horsepower and screamed to an 8,600 RPM redline. It was all about precision and control, perfect for purists who loved a high-revving machine.

Then came the ZR1, packing the twin-turbocharged LT7 engine. With over 1,064 horsepower, it turned the Z06’s finesse into pure, unrelenting force. The ZR1 was built for raw power, designed to pin you to your seat under incredible acceleration.

In 1957, GM designer Peter Brock, under the direction of Bill Mitchell at GM Styling, contributed to one of the most iconic automotive designs: the 1963 Corvette Split Window Coupe. Known for its timeless appeal, Brock’s design remains one of the most celebrated creations of the Mitchell era.

Today, 67 years later, Brock is back—refining his original vision for the 2024 SEMA Show with a reimagined “Studio Concept” version of the split window. “There were details that never made it to production,” Brock explains. “This year, I’ve taken the classic form and enhanced it, capturing elements from my original 1957 sketches.”

This factory “Split Window” Studio Concept stays true to the Split Window’s legacy while introducing bold yet subtle refinements, intriguing enthusiasts with each curve. The design integrates an elegant re-styling paired with a completely modernized chassis, C7 suspension and braking system. Under the hood lies a [...]
