lots of KC area people here.

kcsr.org is a good local site for meeting local car people in general.

corvetteforum.com is of course the first and best place to go if you have Corvette problems, questions, etc.

7360 West 162nd St (basically 162nd and Metcalf).

I have an '02 Z06 with a forged 416ci LS3 motor. About to add C6 GrandSport brakes to it.

Stop by the shop would love to talk to you about what you can do to your 03.

I installed a forged 416ci LS3 in my 02 Z and just installed C6 Grand Sport Calipers a couple weeks ago. I can show you a lot of different mods we have done to my Z.

At 814 Motorsports (Formerly Supertune Performance) we have a Dyno and 3 guys who tune cars, we use SCT, HP Tuners and EFILive. We also have a remodeled lobby/man cave to hang out. When you come in to pick up your car, we walk you to your car, show you everything that was done, explain any new procedures and discuss any concerns we have with you. Too many shops these days just want your money and throw you the keys.


I have a group of nearly 30 Z06 owners in the KC area and we have gatherings, mod parties and cruises. More than likely we have a car in the group with any mod you are thinking about so you can see/touch/feel it before trying it on your Z.

Greg, I may take you up on that someday. I have a couple of oil leaks I need to fix and it needs a new cat back.
