Apologies for the delayed reply. They bolt to the top of the valve cover facing the intake manifold. Very clean install.

Big fan of Koni FSDs. Expensive but a great riding and handling shock, IMO.

I had a Katech Stage 2 done on my '11 GS rather than FI because of heat concerns during track days. The car is ridiculously fast, throttle response is immediate, drives better than stock 99% of the...

Based on your background, desires and price point, I'd say GS. I've driven both, including on the track, and the Z06 is a no-brainer if your goal is ultimate performance (although admittedly quite...

I tend to agree. I've found their performance satisfactory overall - with the right one-piece pad. However, I hate the work involved to switch pads. Shouldn't be that hard. I will likely use the...

It is bolted to the head using a 2" aluminum spacer and the mounting arm that came with the can. If I recall correctly when I first installed the catch can, it did not have a spacer and the arm...

I think once you get into it the first time the dyno sheet will become irrelevant - it did for me.

I have Katech C6 #18 - one of only 4 Grand Sports with the Stage II + package I believe. I added ATI damper, valve cover/coil kit, and DeWitts radiator. Their work is flawless.

I'm running 465...

I've done a lot of mods both performance and cosmetic. Hard to pick the "best" mod since they all impart something unique to my GS and one has to consider value in the equation.

Best overall (but...

Huge fan of Koni FSD. Internal valving system provides softer dampening for high frequency impacts (e.g., potholes, road irregularities) and stiffer dampening for low frequency compressions (e.g.,...

I was not leaning toward a 160 thermostat, but it comes with the Katech Stage II I had installed. I figured if the people that built championship racing engines for Corvette Racing decided it was a...

Sell and flip for a manual. Life's too short to regret not being able to row gears in your Vette.

Raceseng makes several models (all weighted, I believe) in the style I think you may be looking for that fit the stock shifter with an adapter. They are VERY nicely made but a bit $$$.

I used to go to several car shows a year in So Cal - at least two a month during the "season" - when I had my '69 and '71 Z28s. I stopped going because 1) I saw the same cars (as nice as they were)...

Thanks! Great to know my car is one of less than a handful of Katech GS's, but the enthusiast in me feels bad that more owners have not experienced the incredible work you guys do.

Based on my serial number plate, it appears they treat all other non-Z06's as just "C6 Corvette" so I can't say how many of the other 17 I'm referring to are GS's. I won't claim to be the only one...

The debate in this thread was whether this 60th Anniversary package 427 can actually be a 1SC without the suede inserts, and the answer is yes. I don't believe there was a debate about the heritage...

Had the great fortune to drive both a GS and a Z06 back-to-back on a track. As others have noted, both cars are great but the Z06 is the track-focused preference without question. That being said,...

This is a 60th Anniversary model, so no suede inserts were available even with the 1SC - which this car is.
