What would you like in the C7 Z06?
I think it would be fun to imagine what GM will offer in the C7 Z06. What would you like them to add/subtract? Here are my thoughts:
1. AFM Delete
2. Go back to Auminum Torque Tube
3. Lighter headers
4. Fixed Roof
5. Make an LS7 version of the LT1:
5a. Increase displacement
5b. Tune for power at high RPM rather than FE
5c. All the other cool junk in the LS7 that lets it REV
Clearly I'm going for a normally aspirated engine here.
I'm thinking the following specs:
550 HP
3100-3200 lbs
Any thoughts/dreams/fantasies?

I would be happy with 500 h.p. and 3,100 pounds. Oh, and a good looking long legged blonde.

Since the Z06s are supposed to be the track versions:
1) DSSV shocks with four way user adjustability.
2) 19" diameter rear wheels.
