I like that tail-fin. I have not seen that one before.

Thanks. It mounts with the hatch-strut mountings. 49th street rockers/fin.

Welcome to the forum & ZR-1 family!

Watch out for RHanselman there in Vegas. He will be twisting your arm to rebuild the engine with 8:1 compression & putting the Raptor Twin Turbo system on it. Might as well if you're going into the engine.....drives like a stocker.......until......you put light the burners! Check his out.

FWIW, I read your post about the former owner replacing the main bearings while the pan was off. The engine has to be completely disassembled to replace the mains in an LT5. Maybe he replaced the rod bearings. That you can do with just the pan off.

Glad to have ya in the group!

Yes I know about the twin turbo and have contacted Hanselman Good guy. Engine on this car is fine. Just had it out today was going somewhat sideways in first...
No they discovered wear in the bearings when they dropped the oil pan, then went on to replace. $822 for bearings (parts) at Gates Chevy World. The car was well known to the techs there I was told. I can tell the engine was pulled when I get under her.
Love the Cars looks and ride!

Ya I just got off the phone with the previous owner, the techs said it would be faster just to pull the engine for a complete seal set.Then they saw the wear on the bearings and replaced them as well. As well as clutch set ect.
Having all that broke loose once will help on the header install :cheers:
