My passenger side lower radiator bracket is half broke which I plan on fixing next week, my questions mainly are this-
I have an 07 z51 coupe - can it be raised, at all?
And I know that I can't remove the wider center air damn piece, but what about the 2 side pieces, can I just remove those all together??

I track my 08 C6 and I would like to know what will absolutely improve my front down force the most. I've never had any issues with cooling ( partly because I only track during the TX winter) so I'm not really worried about that. I already have a World Challenge Hood and I did remove the lower air dam thinking it was an improvement. Also my car is very low. Is The Z06 bumper opening that much larger that the LS7 can be cooled but the LS3 can not through it's front opening?
Good advice appreciated.

If you have a standard C6 then you need to keep the bottom opening open, not closed. That's where your radiator gets cooling air. And, you need the air dam to force the air in.
IF you open up the front, like a Z06, THEN you can cut/remove the airdam and close off the bottom feed and improve your aerodynamics.
