Default info on C5 options

I am new to C5s and have been in the process of gathering information in preparation to start looking for one next year. Can someone explain what engine/suspension options are available for the 2004 (NON-Z06) coupe? I have heard of the Z51 package and LS1 engine, but do not know what year the LS2 is available, etc...

I have been looking for a website that might list out all the options for that year but have not had much luck. My goal is to understand all options so that I can find one that has everything I want.

The LS2 came in 05 w/ the C6. Try this link for all available options in 04.

When you're looking at cars, the options list is inside the glove box door.

The Z06 Is a modded Z51 suspension. The rear Is stiffer and the front and rear swaybars are larger. Plus that article above should help you out a bit. Best of luck
