Originally, the Chevy SS is powered by the 6.2 liter LS3 V8 unit, generating 420 hp. According to Mr. Hennessey, two of the best things about this car are that its engine is linked to a six-speed manual and that the car also features magnetic ride suspension. Production-wise.

To go into details, the upgrade includes 2.3 liter supercharger system and a lot of other "goodies" like the HPE air induction system and the in-house made HPE pulley. The car also received upgrades for the fuel system and high flow fuel injector as well as 160 degree thermostat.
Over this you can opt for additional appearance and performance options like new wheels and tires, upgrades for the suspension and brakes as well as for the transmission and driveline. Changes can be also made to the headers and exhaust. Even the interior could be made better with a lot of custom wrapping, featuring an Alcantara steering wheel.
