Wheelbase, engine setback, overall weight distribution. VERY different cars

OK Chad,
Wheelbase is roughly 5" shorter on a vette, the engine, as far as i know, is the same to the front axle spindle, don't know specifically the weight distribution difference, what is it and how can ya say that the vettes are at a disadvantage to the camaro's and firebirds in these areas?????

I wish I knew, please help! I fail to see how they are, as you say VERY different. They probably have a better aero package as well!
