I broke(came apart at the track) the upper shock bushing(one that sits under the actuator) yesterday. Are these specific to the shock and where would I get a replacement?

Ever notice Mr. Haibeck does not own a ZR-1. If he did he would have no time to work on anybody elses, as he would spend all of his time fixing his own, like me....these two cars are killing me this year

1)Starter on the 90
2)Clutch/ throw out on the 92
3)Clutch hyd on the 90
4)Clutch Hyd on the 92
5)New Tires on the 92
6)Shock Bushing on the 92

Yeah, unfortunately, lots of repairs are expected on cars as old as ours are. Especially when you push them hard, like at the track. It just sucks that sometimes, everything seems to break all at once rather than gradually. Kind of hard on the wallet, lol!

He's got a red '93 that I believe he bought new.

My bad, I was told he did not have one. Does he ever bring it to events?

I hope everyone took that they right way, I was of course joking that he did not own one because he new they had so many issues. That was not a comment about Marc himself. I have met Mr. Haibeck and he is a great guy and his shop and work are both incredible. Very talented man and always willing to take time to share and assist everyone.

I was always told he did not have one, that is probably the best maintained ZR-1 in the world!

He was very kind to help me at Carlisle. And yes, he had a red 93.

I hope this does not result in a fatwa against me, I may need to go underground with Salman Rushdie.


1000 pardons Mr. Haibeck:worship:

I knew what you meant, no offense came across. I just wanted to point out he does have one. He's run it at BG before. It's a full ported 350, I think with 4.10:1 gears.
