I recently purchased a 03 Z06 with 34K and I'm more than pleased with it. I had my eye on a Z for years, I purchased mine from the original owner and he was a engineer for GM. The drive to michigan was well worth it. I just wanted to say hi to everyone

I'll take pics tomorrow after I wash it. My first mod I'm looking into is an intake. I was thinking of going with Halltech any suggestions? Jim seems like a pretty nice guy and has good customer service.
