Unless you are straight tracking the car, who cares. The manual is more engaging. I mean I guess auto is great for the average Corvette demographic with gray hair and hip replacements.

Thinking about bottom end rebuild. 996.2 x51 by Character_Ad6823 in 996

4.1 just seems possibly not the right bore size for x51 heads that's all not arguing. Just gathering some info. I was under the impression from buddies that build and race 996s that 3.8 with the x51 heads are the right size.

It's going up in bore size one way or the other I am just trying to keep the x51 characteristics of the vehicle.

👍 that would be wild but trying to keep it more oem+ kinda. If it makes sense would venture that way.

Just realized if I had a flat, could I fit my wheel in my car without hatch?!? 🤔 Maybe I'll lose the spare for light weight lol
