Re: Little local ZR-1 love........
What cams? Was it a result of the head gasket?

Re: Little local ZR-1 love........
I received today a Road & Track issue from August 1998. Was curious about the top speed test of the yellow LPE 415. With 3.07 rear gears the car did run in 5th with 6'100 rpm not very impressive 201.5 mph. But with open pipes it did 218.1 mph. The engine had just 620 bhp. Can that be?

Re: Little local ZR-1 love........
Sam, this engine dyno sheet is a bit higher at 688 h.p.......I have a video tape of the event, and the yellow car went 218. You outta hear coming off of turn 4!
 Of course one of the best parts of the video, is when the Hennessy Viper catches on fire, and JH is throwing gravel and rocks on it trying to put out an oil fire.......
