Default Newb from Phoenix

Just bought a 1998 Z28 vert. Stock, just added the Z06 wheels. Catback and cold air ordered. Deciding what headers to get. The new 98 has an older sister, an 88 IROC vert 5 spd.

I'm in Laveen, being in Chandler puts you pretty close to Firebird.

looks great

I had an iroc z 1990 but auto ..... now I regret selling it as I have money to convert it to manual and swap engines and stuff .... the top is a pita without the top latch button
with the 98 it`s electrical way better ... was auto and converted it to t-56 (not many m6 verts here)

I say keep the stock height and add RS ground effect if you want a better stance look

for headers what is good fit , performance and money wise

tsp 1 7/8 and Y if you want them big (better with heads and cam later on or a stroker down the road)

for 1 3/4 LPP or pacesetter

Welcome, glad you can add all those mods right away. I just put chrome corvette wagon wheels on my 98z. I'm going to even out the advice and say keep it high and put the ground effects. i lost my camera so can't show pics. Post some yourself, john
