    The latter system features 430 horsepower (316 kW) LS3 engine mated to a 4L65-E four-speed automatic transmission. Other engines and components that are going to be on display at the Chevrolet Performance trailer are the LSX454R, ZZ572 and ZZ383 crate engines; a partial chassis with an LS376/575 engine and 4L85E transmission installed; an LSA engine/4L85E transmission Connect & Cruise powertrain package; and a parts board with critical components like engine controllers and vehicle-specific parts.

    What is more, at the event, Chevrolet will also drive the one-of-a-kind “Motor Medic” Silverado support vehicle. It is equipped with tools and parts that are designed in order to help Power Tour drivers keep their cars on the road.
