It would likely be a clearance issue if anything. That and you would suffer a minor mileage penalty. If you are really in a position to need the information, why not try asking in one of the Corvette forums where there is likely a vendor who has set up one that way? And if you are concerned about warranty issues, ask a couple Chevy dealers.

So it turns out the guy who comes in here trumpeting a 147 hp/l Porsche engine is "not really a car guy, in regards to the mechanical technicalities". But I guess he can read a stats sheet. LOL.

lol - you're confusing what I'm asking with what's different. any bozo can calculate horsepower/liter...but what I am asking now is something a Corvette mechanic could only answer - which I'm not, that's why i'm asking. and my question isn't revealed on a stats sheet. ....know the difference.

Silly boy. Folks routinely put Z06 wheels and tires on their C6's. They aren't Corvette mechanics, and they hang out in the Corvette forums. I would be happy to answer your question Lawrence as soon as you answer mine. :>"CardsFan" wrote :>> :>>> On Tue, 01 Jan 2008 08:54:19 -0600, Bob I wrote: :>>> :>>> :>It would likely be a clearance issue if anything.
