Great Memories & MotorWeek Video: How the LT5 was Manufactured by Mer Cruiser
I used to intern, as a college student, for 3 summers on MotorWeek at Maryland Public Television, and remember this episode about the 1991 Corvette ZR1 and how the LT5 was manufactured at the MerCruiser plant fondly!
This video has some awesome film footage of LT5 production! http://vettetube.com/view_video.php?...37d9b55f63ed8b Years later I returned to work at MPT, and we get quite a few hot cars delivered to the station. One of my fondest memories was going to the GM Proving Grounds in 1989 and seeing/hearing the ZR1 racing around their track... I've wanted one ever since. Just yesterday, they dropped off a gorgeous 610 HP SLP Supercharged ZL610 Corvette.
