Best Place For ZR-1 parts?

New to the forum, and looking to find some parts. I found a few places:

http://www.whiteracingproducts.com/

http://zr-1parts.com/

http://jerrysgaskets.com/store2/root/


Any other places I should be looking? Some of the prices seem expensive.

I have had luck with K & B (kandbcorvetteproducts.com) - they have great reproduction oil cooler hoses at a great price and also with Marc Haibeck (www.zr1specialist.com).

For NOS and OEM used White Racing and ZR-1 parts are an excellent source... not cheap, but I can understand that. If you are willing to accept aftermarket (read as made somewhere west of the Pacific Rim) then there are other sources such as Ecklers, Mid America, & Corvette Central.

And great replacement parts Jerry Gasket and FIC

And one other great source...this web site in the for sale section

Hello and welcome to the forum.

In addition to the ones you listed, you can also try;

Not all parts prices are $$$, but some of the harder to find ones can be pricey.

I can identify with high prices. I started the gasket business about 3 years ago, for just that reason. I can tell you that I have re-invested virtually all of the income since start-up, back into development of replacement parts which had been NLA (no longer available).

For example: Head Gaskets (most recent new product). Based on sales since start-up (when I had OEM gaskets for sale), it will take about 4 years to just break-even on the costs to put them on the shelf.

The point is, I'm not trying to make a living at this (darn good thing). I enjoy doing it and I hope it helps in the long haul to dispel the myths that you can't get parts for the ZR-1 and also improve the desirability of the ZR-1.

Let me know if I can help you with anything.

Hello and Welcome to the Forum.

If there are specific parts that you are having trouble finding, try listing them in the ZR-1 Parts for Sale/Wanted section of the Forum. I am confident that you will get help.

Good Luck.

This works for me,ask for a specific part before spending the cash.Example,not too long ago somebody needed a new vacuum pump,instead of paying $300+ he was able to get a new part shipped for less than $115.
