Any 2001 and up C5 has the best available factory manifolds. Differences for the Z06 are in the exhaust pipes and catback. Z06 has 2 cats instead of 4, and Z06 has the low-restriction titanium catback.

If you check around at the local Vette shops you can probably get the manifolds for free, and the Z06 H-pipe & cats very cheap. They always end up with a bunch of this stuff laying around after header installs. A Z06 catback runs about $400 on the used market.

I don't think the gains will be worth your efforts.
