Basic maintenance
I own a 2003 Z06 with an A&A blower kit. I installed it myself, and the car is a little on the tough side to work on. Steering rack was a pain to remove when doing the crank pinning, intake manifold was also annoying especially with the little vacuum line for the A/C doors. Anyway my question is, is the 95-96 vet easier to work on?? I know dropping the tranny has got to be alot easier, but how about the rest of the car, like plugs intake manifold steering rack. I am considering buying a 1995-96 and installing a supercharger from blower works. Thanks

I can't compare the two because I don't have an 03. But the C4 is not hard to work on. Especially if you can get it up in the air about a foot or foot and a half. Then it is not too bad. But to leave it down it's still low like any vette.

C5 is way easier under the hood regarding plugs vs. LT1/4. Seems like everything else under the hood would be the same pita for steering/manifold. Tranny would have to be easier with no tt.
