    Z51 /Mag ride

    Congratulations on the Corvette convertible especially with the world class F55 suspension. I'm sure you know that the ultra expensive Ferraris use the same Delco system with individual minor differences for their specific car as the Corvette F55... Ferraris don't spare any money when it...

    Z51 /Mag ride

    I own a c6 z51 coupe and I find the ride quite good for the street and its supposedly the most racecar like in feel. I believe the F55 Mag ride is a technological wonder in that the shocks have metal fililments in the shock fluid. I believe electricity is sent into the fluid to change the...

    NO C7 until 2015 (Earliest) If at all...

    At this point I'm not convinced its the UAW being a big factor in GM's troubles... Basically the last contract that was negotiated was pretty fair to both parties.. I beleive GM just needs to get to 2010 for a portion of the UAW contract go into greater effect.... Rumors abound that Saab...

    NO C7 until 2015 (Earliest) If at all...

    I think 2015 is about right for the earliest date we will see a new generation corvette...(given current economic climate) I believe it will be government regulations that eventually cause GM to recreate the corvette... Till that time....I believe GM will continue to evolve the current...

    Whats the best CAI?

    for every 10 degrees you can lower air intake temperature through a CAI on the road....you pick up 1 horsepower... I don't remember how many degrees you can lower the air intake temperature but thats the value of it. the only thing you need to keep in the back of your mind is the small...

    Question: 2.56 or 2.73?

    I think you should get the 2.73 rear gear. I realize you mentioned otherwise but if it were me? I'd get the improved rollon performance of the optional gear ratio. That improved rollon at highway speeds is FUN and thats what the corvette is all about... Good luck deciding. (I bet the real...

    reprogramming pre 2008 paddle shifters?

    I don't personally know much about the automatic paddle shifter c6 yet I've read quite a few posts over the past few months where "tuners" retune the computer that runs the automatic tranny and the change is quite dramatic.. Of course it does put your warranty into question because someone...
