We saw a preview already of Hennessey Performance Engineering working a Corvette ZR-1 unit's engine right into a Chevrolet Camaro 2010 to make the HPE700 model. Hennessey is back now with the HPE550 unit, that will be adding a supercharger no that factory LS3 motor making 562 HP. So, it may be as close now as every Camaro fan gets to the rumored, amazing (and dead now) Z28.

Inside the heart of this beast is the new V8 LS9 supercharged by GM tweaked as just HPE could up to 705 horsepower plus 717 lb-ft of torque. To qualify this as a superauto under the banner of HPE it can not just... go, therefor it has to... whoa. Having optional carbon brakes - 15 inch from the amazing brand new Corvette ZR1 unit, HRE light weight wheels having tires Michelin PS2 and complete suspension modifications the Camaro HPE700 will make total usage of its all-new found strength.

'The HPE700 Camaro allows our customers to combine supercar power and performance with classic American muscle car looks in a modern, daily-driver usable sportscar with a backseat and a trunk!' said John Hennessey, the President and the CEO at Hennessey Performance Engineering. 'We will be announcing other Hennessey turnkey vehicle packages for the 2010 Camaro in the near future along with an extensive list of aftermarket performance parts and accessories. But for now, the LS9-powered HPE700 Camaro, replete with ZR1 inspired looks and performance promises to be at the top of the American muscle car food chain later in 2009.'
