Dave McLellan (former Corvette Chief Engineer) delivers a fascinating talk at the 2026 Callaway & ZR-1 Summit. He dives into the development of the C4 Corvette and ZR-1, sharing rare stories about early engine challenges, the wild twin-turbo test cars (including one that hit 220 mph and famously dusted a Lamborghini Countach), and how Chevrolet leadership pushed for the groundbreaking Lotus-designed LT5 4-cam, 4-valve engine. Dave also discusses the engineering gestation that led to the successful collaboration with Reeves Callaway, highlighting the high-performance innovations that followed. Essential viewing for Corvette, ZR-1 and Callaway enthusiasts. #Corvette #ZR1 #C4Corvette #Callaway #DaveMcLellan #LT5
