There's a lot of documented bad decisions in that list.

Indeed.
You can sometimes modify the corvette transmissions into the correct “format” but it’s easier and cheaper to buy the right one in the first place. The amount of time and money I spent on modifying the C7 7-speed probably wasn’t worth it but at least it’s unique, this one looks like the C5 Z06 t56 which isn’t that great. |
