Just picked up my first Corvette! '02 Z06
I just picked up my first Corvette! Found a nice Quicksilver Metallic Z06 near me, went to check it out and left an hour later with it! When I went to look at it I thought it was stock, but as it turns out it has headers (unknown mfr ETA: headers are ARH), intake (Vararam), short shifter (unknown mfr) and electric cutouts on the exhaust (unknown mfr).
The car has 52,000 miles, so far I've been loving it, although I think I'd like to switch the short shifter for a C6 shifter as this one is a bit too notchy for my liking.
Next to my buddy's Viper GTS
At home in the garage

Nice car!! Looks clean.
I just picked up a 2001 Z06 with LT's, SLP Blackwing intake and an unkown short shifter.
I love the headers and intake but feel the short shifter is too notchy for my taste.
I just ordered a C6 shifter on Friday. Can't wait to get it installed.
Enjoy the new ride.

Would you mind sharing the part numbers / source for your C6 shifter?

I run B&M Rippers in both of my cars and have done the Anti-Venom mod. For a few bucks and 15 minutes of time, made the shifter perfect.

Thanks everyone! Happy to be here, already absorbing so much useful info on the car and getting several ideas on upgrades lol.
I did find out that the headers are ARH. Heading to a local Vette specialist shop on Saturday to get it checked out by the mechanic.
