All of these parts were left over from our program to show off Stoptech technology using a dedicated C5 ZO6 Corvette. Some of the suspension parts were used on the car when it was featured on the Torque.tv H2H episode 6 when we won against the GMG Porsche World Challenge GT3 Porsche.

Reason: price reductions
TGstring need to check mailbox - having trouble sending reply
Tommy, I have tried to respond that I will check freight cost since odd shape and size and into Canada. Call or text me. Cell number is in original post
RC45,
The wheels are BBS RE Forged Magnesium, 18x10.5 and 18x12. They were spec'd for use in World Challenge. They are normally silver and I had them painted a satin black epoxy. Their use requires tubbing the car which we did in-house using hand laid glass cloth with a kevlar outer liner and the removal and then replacment of the upper fender and roof brace. Also you have to limit droop travel so as not to let the inside ID of the rim hit the upper rear A-arms. Then with the 345/30x18Michelin Pilot Sports we also had to add the fender flares. The wheels also require the use of longer studs for the thicker wheel flanges. The wheels are still very light at 14 pounds and worth the trouble - we have two sets. Thanks for asking, Steve

Jason@magnacharger,
I will be at your office on this Saturday to drop off the new LS2 block with Darton Sleeves that Jerry and I are building.
If you are ready, we will bring whatever you want up with us at no charge.
Sale of the springs is still pending but honestly not settled either way. Please call me and I'll give you some advice on all spring and shock options. I have more than I listed because we have been experimenting all along and I do not believe in coil overs on a stock frame Vette.
Thanks, Steve

Please see my explanation of the application of the Bilstein shocks for street use. . . .
I originally posted that they were shortened for lowered application and that created the wrong impression. The shocks have to be shortened when using deeply inset wheels like on the back of a Vette so as not to crash the ID of the back of the rim into the upper A-arm.
At the same time you can revisit the bump and droop travel of the shock to better center it for the revised ride height typically by shortening the droop and raising the bump limit. Both are served by a shortened body.
SO how does it work on the street? Typically additional droop is un-noticed so its loss is un-noticed too. The shorter body means that you will have additional pre-load on the shock at full droop in the garage, so harder to install but also not a big deal.
And if you are running at lowered ride height then the changes being talked about have to be made or you bottom your shock out before you need to limit bump travel.
I hope this helps.
Please comment or ask.
BTW I was the suspension and set up expert on the Speed Channel show Sports Car Revolution and I am the Co-Chair of the FSAE West Design Judging Competition. I also am the Race Engineer for the GMG WCGT Porsche Team since Detroit last year with 2 wins and one pole in the last 6 races, yes the same team we beat in the Torque.tv H2H Episode 6 competition. We've become great friends but I remind them of the contest results when I want to pick a fight with these Porsche fanatics.
