go to autozone and scan the codes. Surely get them scanned, I bet it will be o2's. Driving on bad front o2's can really jack your car up. Been there, done that. If you already have LT's you already have extensions unless someone did a hack job on your existing ones which could be why they went bad in the first place. If you don't have extensions buy the longer ones, they are the same.
No they don't have to be off a Z06 all 4 of the sensors on the camaros and corvettes are all the same except the length of the wiring. The vette sensors have longer wires so you don't have to buy extensions or lengthen your current one's. If the 02's are really old it's good to replace them on any car because they get slow over time. But nobody here knows your problem and nobody can say with certainty the 02's will fix it so...
Get the codes then go from there.
Report back with codes before you go slapping parts on that the doofus at Autozone says you need.
I have a question, does your temperature gauge work? What temperature does it run at once it is warm?
