Another polite disagree'er here.. likely the most noticible difference in straightline acceleration is attributable to the M12 (Z06 Only) 6 Speed tranny.. Combine this one key element with all the weight reduction you just can not replicate, suspension, and don't forget the LS6's build uniqueness.. Quite a bit more than a little bit of work for a coupe or vert to mimic the Z06.. Owning one of each.. the '04 Z16 and the '99 Coupe.. the '99 has more than 405 HP with all Jake & Brian Delaney has done tune-wise.. and the car still can't hold a candle to the stock Z16.. Dave Hill built a monster C-5 with this last of the 5th Gen Z's. No, it's not a C6Z.. Thats a whole different car..
Cool,
HB
