Seeing as how much the kids would enjoy it is factoring in to my next purchase (they always want me to drive my truck like a "race car", and a stock 95 2500 with a Cummins is no race car haha) I'd...

I knew the problems were predominantly when modded (obviously bearings were stock or modified) but who wouldn’t want to mod these cars with how easy it is to make massive power?

And I appreciate that. I wasn’t trying to down play or blow off what you said. More so saying that wouldn’t sway me like the mentioned Hellcat issues potentially do.

I wouldn't consider the loose swaybar links really a issue, at least not on the same level of the Hellcat pulley slipping and requiring a new engine, or blower bearings that require a new blower.

I've wondered lately if the lower RPM of the LT4 vs the 6.2 torque has something to do with how it drives compared to the Hellcat.

Common problems?

So I'm in the market, most likely a ZL1 convertible, but I'm also considering a coupe or even a Hellcat.

I did a quick search but didn't really see anything, does the ZL1 have any common issues?...

So I was reading up on the torque management on these cars and the manual with the ELSD were mentioned a lot as to blame.

Does the convertible not suffer from the same laggy throttle as the coupe?

That may be the case with the manual, but the auto gets a slightly taller 2.77 vs 2.85.

As I said very small change so wasn’t even sure if it would be noticed

Even worse visibility would suck. But I have to wonder if the PTM would really be missed on a street driven convertible? Maybe it would, I don't know what all it contains, I just did a quick google...

Will I miss the ELSD or really notice the weight?

How's it going?

So I'm currently in the market for a ZL1 convertible. I understand there are differences between the convertible and coupe (elsd/PDR/weight/axle ratio), but having never driven the...
