Re: Questions/Help on buying a ZR1
Robert, no disrespect meant about other Corvette's I have also owned many of most of the other gens. Just my feelings about the ZR-1 in my eyes it will always be the panicle of the modern era and the start of all the performance Corvettes to follow.

Doug, My ZHZ could have four cams.........I just have to put three additional cams in the trunk.

Re: Questions/Help on buying a ZR1
At the end of the day, that"s what those motors were built for. But without them, GM couldn't build a 53K C7.

Re: Questions/Help on buying a ZR1
By the time I was done with it, my '87 vert was virtually perfect; spectacular in every way. (see pic attached) That being said, I definitely do consider it a "lesser" Corvette than my Z. I loved it and really miss it, but it was only a small block 350 under the hood.

Re: Questions/Help on buying a ZR1
Yep! That would be it. (You just couldn't crop out that beat up Impala)
