More and more info is being leaked from GM as the production delivery date for the C6 gets closer. The C6 Z06 is not expected to be available until fall 2005.

The basics... the Z06 will not be built on the same frame used for the C6 coupes and convertibles. It will be getting the LS7 3-valve 6.3L 500 hp engine. 95 horsepower more than the standard C6. The C6 Z06 is going to be even more different structurally to include many more aluminum and carbonfiber components. Expect to see times around 3 second 0-60, less than 90 feet 60-0, over 1.05g lateral acceleration, around 2,900 lb. curb weight, wider wheels (10" / 12", or better), larger engine and trans. oil coolers, bigger and perhaps different composition (are we talking carbon fiber???) brakes
