Big change in dimensions

[Dominicorvette]

Hi, I have a question for the people out there who know ZR-1's. On the website of which this is the forum, they aren't consequent and conclusive on the information concerning the dimensions of the ZR-1 throughout the years.
I emailed the person who moderates the site on some of the mistakes on the site, which he changed, but only partly. Here's the thing: The length of the car changed between 1990 and 1991 due to the different front end, however the width and height of the car also changed. But the site's 'dimensions' section says it's between 91 and 92, while the 'FAQ' section says it's between 92 and 93. I contacted the moderator on this, but he hasn't written me back.
Now my question: which is correct? When did the ZR-1 change it's exterior dimensions?

Thanks,

Dominic

that's a tough one. not sure mom knows???? I would contact gordon killabrew as he is very good with these types of zr-1 facts. I know they changed spring rates which affects the ride height (which varies from car to car anyway). I've never heard of any dimension changes at all except a minor variation due to the bumper change between 90 - 91.

all else the same IMHO, but I don't know. I've had a 90, 93, 2X 95, never noticed anything.

According to Mike Antonick's book "Corvette Specs 1984-1996" the dimensions are as follows:

----1990--- 1991-- 1992--- 1993--- 1994--- 1995
W-- 71.0--- 71.0--- 73.1*-- 73.1*-- 73.1*-- 73.1*
L-- 178.5-- 178.5-- 178.5-- 178.5-- 178.5-- 178.5
H-- 46.7--- 46.7-- - 46.3--- 46.3---- 46.3---- 46.3

Measured in inches.
* He lists these dimensions as ZR-1 specific for these four years but not for 1990 and 1991. But I'm sure they apply to the first two years also.

I think the car got wider in 91 and stayed that way. 91-95 are the same body. never seen these stats before. however, "it is what it is"
