While we wait for Chevrolet to do us the honors and reveal the new Corvette Stingray Z06 at the Detroit auto show in about an hour or so from now, we’ll give you another peek at the highest performance version yet of the seventh generation model with five new photos.

This freshly leaked set include a single shot from the engine bay where we see that the new supercharged V8 engine bears the “LT4” moniker, which was used in the late 1990s on the manual Corvette, Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird.

From Chevrolet’s public site, we learned that the Z06’s supercharged V8 will churn out  620 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of torque (or possibly even more, according to some sources).

For now, do check out the gallery and keep this page open to watch the live reveal from Detroit.

Thanks to Lou for the video tip!
