Anybody put a C6 Z06 diff in the C5??

Just curious if anyone on here has done it yet and the cost. Looks like you have to get the diff, rear cradle and springs. I guess the C6 Z06 uses larger gears in the diff. so should be a better option for the strip.

Haven't done it, but I've heard that it is possible. But you need a new "intermediate housing" with the proper bolt pattern etc.

It's been done Paul. Best way to approach it would be to get the complete rear cradle and diff out of a wrecked C6Z. From there I think its pretty much a direct swap, just need to bolt everything up. I think there is more info on it over on CF. Another place to ask about it would be RPM, Ithink they have done it for a few people. HTH
