SVE launches 1,000-HP Yenko/SC Camaro series

Dedicated Chevrolet Camaro tuner Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE) has only worked with coupes lately, but its 2020 lineup includes convertibles, too.

The U.S.-based customizer plans to build 25 supercars based on the Camaro SS spec. They bore the engine out to 6.8 liters (originally 6.2l), enlarge the turbines, and improve the cooling to raise the output to a whopping 1,000 horsepower (745 kilowatts). A ten-speed automatic transmission is tasked with bringing that kind of power to the asphalt.

SVE also enhances cooling of the limited-slip differential and the transmission, and adds Brembo brakes alongside adaptive suspension.

The exterior of the car is typical Yenko, complete with retro-style wheels, body stripes, and a huge power dome on the hood.

The pricing for the new Yenko/SC Camaro is still pending.
