Maybe you've had enough supercharged Hennessey Camaros for awhile. Fair enough, but we figured you might want to check this one out anyway.
As you can see from this early build shot, the Camaro up on the lift is getting a full-fledged heart transplant, specifically, a supercharged LS9 just like the ZR1 Corvette. That means at least 638-horsepower will be on tap even if Hennessey doesn't start messing with stuff. And how often does that happen? Should make for an interesting Camaro.

Guess they gotta do something when their car is outperformed by a stock Ford Mustang 500 that is $15,000 cheaper.

Why don't we just drop a Merlin engine in and see how it does then?

I really dont see the point in this as it would seem building the V8 in the SS would be cheaper and would have more tuning potential.
I love modified cars but doing it just to do it doesnt make much sense.
