I have an ‘01 WS6 with the automatic. I believe it has a 323 rear end gear. In ‘01 I have read that GM put in the Corvette block , heads , ZO6 cam ,etc. because they had extra parts. I believe that I read this on Edmunds. Whether this is true or not when I stomp the loud pedal into passing gear the car screams and leaps forward in a rush towards 100 mph. The stick WS6 might have a 342 rear end. It might be the video ,but I didn’t hear the screaming exhaust on the automatic car. I live in the big city with bad traffic and a straight stick was out of the question in ‘01 and the traffic is 10 times worse now. 😢 I love my WS6 !

After replacing the 245 tires to 285's on the automatic, the auto won by half a car. AND, the stick is not 100% stock like the auto.
