torque tube question
I didn't have any luck with searching so asking. If you are going to pull your torque tube for service and do a clutch at the same time can you replace the driveshaft and older style 10mm couplers with the driveshaft and 12mm couplers from a Z06? From what I can see in diagrams it looks like it would be a pretty easy swap and from what I understand the C5Z driveshaft is a stronger and lighter unit than the standard unit.

You're meaning just the shaft inside, right?
I think you could, but you'd have to drill and tap the 10mm threaded holes on the input shaft and output hub to 12mm threads.
