Must people cut the front bushings, and throw away 2/3rds of it, then just loosen the bolts about .5" to lower it about an inch in front. You will need the longer bolts on the Z06 rear since the leaf spring is so much stiffer than a Z51 spring. On a stock or Z51 the bolts are long enough to get an inch drop easy! That is all that is required.

Try lowering the car using the stock bolts first, see how you like it first, don't be in a hurry to cut things.
search corvette forums for lowering instructions, its really easy though..

lower it using the stock bolts, don't even bother cutting. Friend of mine dropped his all the way and it still rides like stock, but handles 100% better, if it's possible to handle 100% better in a Z06
