Default Exhaust Manifolds

Are the exhaust manifolds on the '99 and the '01 Z06 the same? Or does the Z06 flow better?

The ZO6 exhaust manifolds flow better but,, you will need the ZO6 mid pipe to match up with the ZO6 manifolds. Again, You will not see gobs of HP increases.

Have you thought of installing a 2001+ intake manifold. It does give an added increase 10-12 HP
