Re: Corvette SS Test Mule
Man, that was balls to open the hood and everything! As was said on that page, must be off to the 'Ring.

Re: Corvette SS Test Mule
Interesting, the SS is supposed to be supercharged correct? I could not see the belt/pulley snout, if that is some form of roots blower it's a very interesting design lol.

I think you can see it here. The top piece is built by Behr who makes cooling parts os I am guessing that might be some sort of air cooler on top of the charger.

Re: Corvette SS Test Mule
Yeah, looks like some heater hoses going up towards the radiator, so it seems likely it's part of the intercooler.

Re: Corvette SS Test Mule
I doubt the guy is going to see any jail time for that. How many spy photos end up in car magazines? How many people climb the wall in Dearborn, MI to snap pics of Ford's test track? Lots. It almost seems like GM wanted to leak it if you ask me.

Re: Corvette SS Test Mule
True, losing his job alone was probably enough punishment to make him regret his decision(s).
