It would need a corvette tail housing and I'm not sure what else. I'd have to look it up as I doubt it's ever been done.


I would imagine the gearing inside is all different too. It'll be to short for what you want.

With that said, you could use the case? LOL

What are the new c7z's running? Are they still in a 56 or did they jump to a 6060 now?

Edit -- nvm lol, had a brain fart and realized they jumped to that fancy new 7speed

Not in the slightest. You can wish it to be true all you want but I'm perfectly content with my car. In a couple years I'll sell it and build/buy something else. Maybe a TT C6 grandsport or C7.

Yeah they are 7 speed. 08-13 vettes used 4 different versions of the 6060. I looked up the gearing in yours and it's crazy short for me but I could probably work something out with RPM, Tick, or RKT56 to use it as a core. PM me with what you had in mind and we'll see what we can work out.

So that is why you are fixated on this simple thread about a driveline vibration?

I'll crack it open this weekend and send you pictures and we can work something out if that's the route you want to go.

If it's still in good usable condition i'll take it as is. I should be able to swap it with a shop that rebuilds them for a corvette core of equal value. I'll send a couple emails out to the shops I listed.

It should be fine. Last setup that trans ran was the stroker pre-blower so only 600ish crank hp.

It's been sitting at the shop on a pallet ever since (15-16 months ago) so I haven't even looked at it. I'll have the guys pull it down for me this week so I can bring it home.

Alright let me know. Sorry to hear about your funds curtailment.
