I'm running their MHX 520 cooler, so I believe its slightly lower cooling capacity compared to the new kit, and I typically see oil temps peak around 250 with ambient in the mid 90s in the afternoon....

That pan is for front sump applications, so probably not going to have any corvette guys using it. Typically the batwing plus baffles is a good budget option in a corvette without going to a dry sump.

Seems high. There was a similar mile Z06, clean title that needed an engine for ~5500. If you want a project it may be worth it in the 2-3 range depending on how mechanically inclined you are.

You want to check it hot as that's what the car sees on track. If it's not what you want, adjust while it's hot. You can make a note of the cold pressures to use as a baseline for setting the tires...

I suspect its slightly more grip, but with the new 200TW tires its tough to say. I dont believe the NT01 would have any more peak grip compared to the top of the line 200TW auto-x tires, and likely...

I'll know for sure in a few weeks going back to the same track with 275 NT01s and 275 RS-PROs, but my initial indication is that the peak grip level is similar, but the NT01s would take abuse for a...

I'm running stock Z06 rear wheels square. They were slightly wider than my 275 NT01s on a narrower wheel, but probably not more than 285 size. I imagine the RS-R is a less grippy compound since its...

I just got a set of the RS-PROs in 275 and was fairly happy with them square on my C5. No crazy road noise, good grip level for the price, but they would fall off after 10-12 minutes, so not sure how...

I'm running 17s square right now with NT01s as a more budget friendly HPDE setup. Theyre about 2/3 the price of 315 18s, but I'm sure sacrifice a little total grip. They car is fairly neutral, and...

I just made a similar change from a ST to a C5 Z06. Out of your options I'd do the Z06, or grand sport if you can find one for a reasonable price. You'll have a much more capable car out of the box,...

Also, by the time you get two sets so you can also adjust the rear, and get the upper camber shims, its only $25 cheaper than the AMT kit.

Ive got basically the same one posted above from amazon. I think you can find it under different brand names since mine is gray. Its worked well, but you'll likely need two if you have wider tires.
