So, now you're mad? Go sit on your motor until you can behave. Just perch on the new lay-z-boy.

Assuming you were to do this, would the C6Z replace your C5Z? I've done so many mods I can't consider that route although I sure would if I could.

Disagree with me? Of course they will, most do.... I'm the same, never much mention of what's under my hood, and rarely raise the hood at shows, but than again, I don't enter shows any longer either. I got trophy's and recognition in the beginning, but whiners/losers at shows drew me away from that crowd, now, I go too look, that's it.

Even though my Vette is two-tone paint with it's own characteristics, I like "Sleeper" mode better.....

When it comes to engine power, there's always a BIGGER DOG out there waiting to eat your lunch. Been there, done that.
