Hey guys I just bought my first C5 and I couldn't be more happy!! It's a 2001 6 speed with 89,576 miles with a clean title. I picked it up for $6500!!!!! The guy I bought it off knew nothing about the car and had it for about 3 months but was to much for him. After bringing it home I found out that the heads say 243. Those are LS6 heads right? It also has a borla catback with a intake setup and MSD spark plug wires. Also has some reclinable Corbeau seats that I'm not a fan of so if anyone wants to trade for

Welcome to the forum, Sergio, and congratulations on your C5!
It appears you got a really good deal on your Vette.
Yes, you are correct - 243 identifies Z06 heads.
