My C6BBT7 keeps flaming out when i go over a jump and land, for me the tuning is good, but i cant seem to get away from the stall. I would like to add a head shim to decrease the compression a little using 25% fuel.
My question is can i use RBC01100-1 in a C6, this is the only shim i have availible to me at this moment, i do realize it is meant for WS7, but will it work?

If your engine stalls at the landing then or your idle is too low or something inside the car is making the engine stall, could be the flexing of the chassis.
In any case adding a shim will probably not solve your issue I think.

Thanks for your quick reply Rody, i will do another all over check to make sure of this point; but still my question will the part RBC01100-1 work for a C6?

It may be worth checking that the fly wheel isn't hitting the ground when you land. I have had this problem in the past, particularly on rough tracks.

I don't think those headshims will work, the ws7, s7 s5 and s3 are square stroke engines... The c5/c6 is a long stroke.. I assume they would not make different shims if they were interchangable.

For the C6 engines you need the shims with part#01102-1
