You will probably have an interesting time finding that considering all Z06's are 6-speed..........

My thread - C6s only option is 6 speed. C5 GM data sheet I viewed listed automatic as an option over standard 6 speed as it was still a small block. Wrong?

WRONG.

the C5Z06 were ALL 6 speed manual. No automatic C5 Z06s were made by the factory.

C5 Coupes and convertibles could come with an Automatic or 6-speed manual

C6s come in Automatic or manual.

The 7.0 is still a small block. small block/big block lingo doesn't apply in LSx Land.

There is a larger displacement (BIG BORE/STROKE) to be had but no physical difference in the Block.

In fact, If I remember correctly, the FRC from 99-00 was also a 6-spd manual only as well. I could be mistaken on that though.

But as others have said.. all Z06s, no matter if it was an 01-04, or 06-present are manual cars.

You are correct. The 99-00 FRCs were all 6 speeds.

Drag racers and people with disabilities which don't allow them to use both feet.

FRC is lighter and more rigid. The one I'm thinking of also has a 427 in it and runs 9s. Can you shift your way into the 9s? And then be consistent enough to run a bracket or an index on top of that? Didn't think so.

Actually yes people have not me personally but you should do some reading and if you want to do that why do it with a z06 that's built for the road race?
