Hey guys, new here and looking forward to learning lots! I've had my 2001 Corvette Z06 for a couple months now. It's mostly stock with 57k miles.

Current and upcoming mods:
  • C6 shifter (retained C5 Z06 base)
  • S&B air intake with Halltech Carbon Fiber Air Bridge (car had old-school Halltech air intake when I bought it... yeah, the one known for hydrolocking engines)
  • Halltech ported throttle body
  • "clear corner" side marker/turn signal light housings
  • ACA headlights retrofitted with Mini H1 projectors
  • ATI harmonic balancer
  • OEM Heads Up Display (since 2001 Z06 never came with it)
