I do think that if you are serious about this, you should talk to Jimmy Parker. He has built a number of successful Corvette Stockers. He is probably the one to ask.

If you have ever seen Charlie Ingram's LT4 Vette, it would get you thinking.

IRS is not smart for a stickshift in any high HP situation for stock class racing.

You might be able to find an Stock eliminator automatic Vette for sale and turn in into something fun by putting a stickshift in it. The newer models are certainly easier to set up for a stick than the older models.

If you are going to do this.......

Bring Money. Lots of it! Good Luck.
