Not that I have ever seen......no real market for it as the factory suspension has all the travel you want........if it is sitting high, it is 100% the springs. It is not like an S-10 truck where when you cut coils out of it that it screws up the A-Arm geometry......when you lower a Vette via springs.....it actually puts it back where it should be.
Are you sitting too high or just want to get lower? 27.5" from the top of the wheel arch to ground is the GM number.
Cutting one coil is about 1.5".
