This, overall dynamics of the Corvette will give it the edge. I do think it's great that GM is closing the gap between these two, realizing that they are two different cars for two slightly different markets.

more exhaust restrictions in the ZL1. I say Z06 edges it out...but not by much.

Are you talking about easily manipulated dyno numbers or an actual race? The Z06 should be a good 1/2 second faster then the Zl1.

There were pictures somewhere showing the zl1 lid and the z06 lid.

Looks like the Camaro blower is at least an inch taller. Maybe 1.5.
