Oh, and the LT5 needs to be put in the ZL1 ASAP.
If I had to guess, the wider wheels, additional heat exchangers, some of teh aero bits, bigger s/c and new injection systems

I'm not sure the 10 speed will even fit into the C7.

Tadge said the 10 speed wouldn’t fit a long time ago. I said that many times but people kept saying I was wrong.

For some reason I don't love it... I feel like I'd rather buy a C7GS and spend the difference on mods, or buy a ZL1/1LE if I were shopping in that particular price range.

Other people may say posers build track cars that overheat on the track.
