Hi I'm new to this forum and have my fare share of questions about my vette. Can anyone please tell me exactly what I must change in order to convert my 2000 C5 with F45 into a Z51. Please be very specific with part numbers and sources for parts please. Thanks for helping.

Why exactly do you wanna go to a Z51 as offosed to Z06? You might be better off performance and money wise going the Z06 route.

ZO6's are in Super Stock. Non-ZO6 C5's are in the new A stock.
