Additional Information
-
The 6.2L V8 engine (RPO LT4), available in 2017-2021 Camaro ZL1 and Corvette models, features an Eaton Roots-type supercharger that creates a maximum boost pressure of 67 kPa (9.7 psi). The air entering the supercharger is cooled by an integral intercooler to enhance the effectiveness of the supercharger. The intercooler uses conventional coolant in a system that is separate from the engine cooling system. It includes two charge air coolers/heat exchangers, a water manifold assembly, and a variety of sensors to monitor air temperature and pressure.
If the supercharger cooling system is not properly evacuated and filled after service, DTC P0300 (Engine Misfire Detected) may set at high ambient temperatures during track speeds above 160 km/h (100 mph).
