I can get the z51 sways from Gene for $163, plus get a $50 rebate from GM.

Dont think that deal can be beat.

Z06 sways are working fine on my 07 vert. Rich may be right that the sways aren't exactly the same size on the Z06. They sure look the same. The Z51 sways are noticeably different front to rear and not as stiff. Where I notice it the most is when I take a corner even at medium hard speed and the vette stays nice and flat and doesn't lean hardly at all. Also I feel bumps in the road a little more but the F55 suspension handles that very nicely. Just my humble .02 worth. Good luck.

I lucked into a set of new Z06 sway bars from a guy that has never opened the box. $150,00 shipped.

Darn! You got a REAL DEAL there.... When you planning to put them on? I've been dragging my feet on installing mine. Not supposed to be any big deal installing them, but I've heard that tune before, and it didn't exactly work out that way for me...... The HardBar install I did recently is a perfect example... I ONLY needed to take out two bolts.....

I don't either. All I have are race ramps. Which is why I've been putting it off.....
