Default Previous Owner Mod Info

I’m trying to figure out what mods (other than the obvious) have been done, internally, to an 03 Z06 I bought. I gave tried contacting the biz card left in the glove box, but it appears this company is no longer around.

is there a method, website, etc., to track this down without invading someone’s privacy? Stupid question I know, but was curious if anyone else has had this challenge?

I bought it off an individual that bought it off another guy, so forth and so on, so no track record of mods.

thanks

Steve

What company? Many shops that were in business 10-15yrs ago, are no longer with us for various reasons.

Yes it will, it has several visual upgrades, but the motor is what I’m searching for. Honestly I don’t think anything has been done other than tuning for the headers, etc. I thought I knew every Corvette “place” in the Dallas area and these guys are right here. They have already replied asking for vin and a pic to do some research for me.

I’m waiting...
