If you have been thinking about upgrading your C5 Corvette brakes with the C6 Z06 Corvette brakes you may want to consider the increased unsprung weight.

Now that it looks to like we will be stuck with what we have a period of time, I was giving some thought to which motor I would use if I was starting a new late model project car today.
The LSx series of engines that power the current C6 and the previous C5 generation Corvettes:
LS1 1997 - 2004 Corvette
LS2 2005 – 2007 Corvette
LS3 2008 – 20xx Corvette
LS6 2001 – 2004 Corvette Z06
LS7 2006 -2008 Corvette Z06
LS9 2009 -20xx Corvette ZR1
Having both an LS6 and a LS3, my vote goes to the LS3 for the best all around motor. Which engine gets your vote?
