Hello from NC! Here to gain some insight and possibly purchase a C7 Corvette. Not sure if I want to get one that's already FBO with cam or grab one stock and have it done. The only issue with the second option is finding someone to do the work and not be down for 6 months while they work it in.

Better to buy what you want, rather than build what you want.
