Hmm? Could an Accu-Sump be hooked up there, to have the benefit
of pre-oiling on every start up?

Where the oil pressure sensor screws into...if you use your Z on a consistent basis....I would imagine that there wouldn't be any need for an Accu-Sump.....JMO....

Need some info on removing the bolt from the front sway bar bracket that attaches to the LCA....this bolt won't budge either with electric impact or tapping the bolt out with a small sledge....so before I do any damage... does this bolt slide through the bushing sleeve...(which I'm thinking)...or is it threaded through....
thanks for any info....[emoji16][emoji16]Attachment 17356

If that is the upper stabilizer bar insulator then yes it slides through the sleeve.

Get a cheap socket put the head of the bolt in the socket and hammer it once it starts to move you should be able to get it out the rest of the way

Can't tell you the number of times I have stripped...sanded and resprayed and then clear coated the plenum over the last almost 4 years..... I know I could have got it powder coated...but also like the feeling of do as much as I can myself....so after repainting the plenum months ago.... today I finally clear coated this piece once again....may not be perfect... but looks good enough to install...
also the LS sway bar bracket after soaking for a few days in Evapo-Rust....paint literally just wiped off....liking the bare metal finish. .especially in the comparison pics.....may leave as it and just clear coat....[emoji16][emoji16]Attachment 17391Attachment 17392Attachment 17394Attachment 17395Attachment 17396

Been extremely busy recently...not totally ZR-1 related...as our "new" Yellow 74 Convertible came home last week...and our Brown 74 Convertible went down to GA for some engine work....which now leaves time to devote fully to the 94....always something going on....[emoji16][emoji16]
Pic #1....still need more cleaning and painting to finish....was thinking about removing the cam covers for painting....but might just tape everything off and paint them on the engine....
Pic #2.....our "new" 74 Convertible is home....while not cosmetically perfect....the L-82 is rebuilt and all new suspension in place....
Pic #3...our 74 LS4 454 loaded and now in GA for some engine work.... no return time frame...so now full concentration for the ZR-1....[emoji16][emoji16]Attachment 17569Attachment 17570Attachment 17571
