If your old car put down 342/351, I would have held onto it. That's a big number for lid/LS6 intake/loudmouth.
Actually it would be a fair matchup against your DD T/A: my car put down 342 RWHP and 351 lb-ft of torque.
I found the C6 Z06 thread.

Cats out of the bag! The 12 rotor is going into the T/A. He wants something more reliable. Something that doesn't have 200K on the clock. You still going with that 8 speed trans?
