The Chevrolet LT4 engine stands as a modern symbol of raw strength, precision, and advanced engineering — redefining what true American muscle means in today’s high-performance world. Designed by Chevrolet Performance, the LT4 is the perfect blend of traditional V8 power and modern technology, setting new standards for efficiency, durability, and exhilaration.

At the heart of the LT4 lies a 6.2-liter supercharged V8, capable of delivering an incredible 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque straight from the factory. This powerhouse is equipped with a 1.7-liter Eaton TVS supercharger, which provides instant boost, smooth throttle response, and relentless acceleration. Whether it’s powering the Corvette Z06, Camaro ZL1, or Cadillac CTS-V, the LT4 ensures world-class performance that rivals exotic supercars — yet remains dependable enough for daily driving.

Built for endurance as much as speed, the LT4 engine is a masterclass in engineering. It features forged aluminum pistons, titanium intake valves, and a forged steel crankshaft, all working together to withstand high cylinder pressures and extreme RPMs. Its rotocast A356-T6 aluminum heads efficiently manage heat, while an integrated water-to-air intercooler maintains optimal intake temperatures under heavy load. These innovations ensure the LT4 delivers maximum performance without compromising reliability.
