Z06 newbe

Just wanted to say hi. I have been around Corvettes for years, but have been C-2's. I just picked up a almost new 2001 Z06 with 3,800 miles on her. This going from a 1966 BB convertable to a 2001 Z06 is a real big jump. I know that I will have questions, and what I have seen on this forum is, that you have the answers.

Re: Z06 newbe

Nice combo on the vettes. I would love to see a few pics of the two together. I have always been a C3 guy myself, so I can see where you are coming from on the big jump.

Here are a couple of the better pics I have of my two vettes together at the moment.

Re: Z06 newbe

Great pics Eddie, how does the Stingray run with the LS6? How difficult was it? Ive always wanted to do one with an LS6 and side pipes. Thanks for sharing.
