New guy from Houston TX
Hello from Houston I've owned fbody ls1s in the past then moved to streetbikes and now looking to get a z06. I love the C5 Z and the C6 Z's and I'm not sure which one to get so I was searching for info and found this forum with great info and decided to join. I have been reading a lot about the low mileage valve guide wear and valves breaking in the ls7 and have just about decided to go with a C5 Z but, I might just get the C6 Z if I can find one with a warranty and a decent price. Thanks to everyone that has posted info on forum it has been very helpful.
