Yup, weight is definitely a drawback with the Z. If your car weighed what a new C6 ZO6 did, you'd be very close to the tens right now.
As you probably know, Marc H. has a list of gimmicks to drop some weight on the Z. Have you done that stuff?
It would be fun to have a car like the old 2,900 lb. "Snakeskinner", and drop your 350 into it. A definite high 10 sec. car all day long.

I clipped off the mufflers, (same B&B setup you have), like Haibeck does, and gained trap speed , and cut E.T. on my stock motor car.
