Default Difference between Z51 and stock?

I just got my new car with the Z51 option. What is the exact difference between it and the stock setup? I know it has bigger swaybars, anything else? Thanks :cheers:

...... :cheers: CONGRATS Ryan :cheers: ......

You'll love the six speed and you were smart getting the Z51, it's a steal for what you get from the factory. I felt the difference a moment after I hit my first curve in my 00.

Good health, good luck, enjoy the hell out of it and don't forget to MOD it..... :cool: ..... :yesnod:
