Anyone know, I'm hoping it is at least a difference of 1.5 inches.

Next time just take 2 seconds and Google it...

1996 Camaro Z28
External dimensions: overall length (mm): 4,907, overall width (mm): 1,882, overall height (mm): 1,303, GROUND CLEARANCE 5.2" wheelbase (mm): 2,568, front track (mm): 1,542, rear track (mm): 1,539 and curb to curb turning circle (mm): 11,552

1997 Corvette C5 Specifications
Wheel Base 104.5
Tread Width (Front/Rear) 62.0/62.1
Overall Length 179.7
Overall Width 73.6
Height 47.7
GROUND CLEARANCE 3.7
Overhang (Front/Rear) 38.8/35.7

So yes, you have your 1.5" difference- exactly...

I have always wanted to lower my car but their is a large speed bump I have to make it over. I have seen a C5 droptop go over the bump and just drag the front spoiler and maybe a little frame. I figure if hit the speed bump at an angel I should be ok.
