Ahh, damn. Eeriness broken.
That's right about when I made my initial deposit with Hinson to grab a place in line, though.
Dunno if you'll see it here or the other forum first, but I got to see Hinson's bracket for the Ford diff, looks good (click):

if his car is indeed 2800, properly optioned c5 z06 or c6 base are only marginally heavier, 250~300 lbs. i am surprised his car weighs that much, but i am sure wegiht can be trimmed by removing the softop etc.
C6 base = 3250 lb., +450 lb.
12.5% and 16% heavier than this S, and worse weight distribution (52/48).
With a 50 lb. weight gain over a stock AP1, 50 lb. LIGHTER than an AP2, you're "surprised" it weighs THAT MUCH with a 3.5x bigger engine?!
Anyway, LS7000 FTMFW!
