Are your rotors drilled (lots of holes) if so you have a z51. You can also look at the label in the glove box and all the car options are listed there.

Lots of ways. The sticker inside the glovebox is a surefire way to tell if it is original. Somewhere on that sticker it will say Z51.

But out of curiosity, why do you ask? What have you heard about the Z51 package?

His avatar shows he's from Qatar. I thought all Export cars were Z51 equipped?

Exports are Z-51's only and feature headlight water jets and a differential(?SP) cooler.

Well as long as his brakes don't then he should be OK.

Confused. Are all exports Z51, or is it that all exports have just the Z51 brakes?

From http://www.corvettemuseum.com/specs/...wertrain.shtml

"To increase durability in sustained high-speed situations, the Z51 and the base European manual-transmission models have a transmission cooler."
