Anybody heard of this guy, watching the 2004 Power Tour episode of "Rides". They stop at his shop in Ridley OK, Video shows 9, yes 9 friggin LT-5s sitting on his back shelf, and two more in his museum...one of which is a black boat motor.:worship:

Sadly the reporter call 'em LT1 engines for ZR1's. *sigh*

How about 18 LT-1 motors for a ZR-1 Corvette? Yep, they’re in the crates, just sittin’ and collectin’ dust. (I just threw that in to show he’s more than a Ford guy. Equal opportunity, you know.)

Could they have been LT-1s for a c3 ZR1?

It's possible, but I'm dimly remembering a post by Bryan (WB9MCW) (??) who has been there at one time or another and had seen them. It might have been over on that "Other Forum Who Shall Not Be Named" where I have been banned for being banned. It was a long time ago, maybe 2 or 3 years ago.

I'll run up there next week & check it out. Been hearing about it for years. I have some things to discuss with Craig VanDeventer anyway.

No, I saw them in the video, they are LT-5s.
