Remember to breathe, remember to breathe, remember to breathe........then grin like a fool.

It needs more miles on it and you're the guy to do it. Welcome to this wonderful car and the people who own them.

There are several local interest groups of very skilled people, FBI, Wazoo, etc. You'll need to learn names like Marc Haibeck as Paul said, Jerry's Gaskets, D.R.M. (Doug Rippie's Motorsports) and some others but it's mostly about how to do what would perhaps have happened had GM continued with the engine architecture....

Oh, and bring your wallet....the potential is enough to loosen it from time to time.

BG is Bowling Green, KY, home of the GM plant that makes only Corvettes. The members of the ZR-1 Net Registry including large sub groups from the mid-atlantic states (WAZOO)-Washington Area ZR-1 owners, and Chicago (FBI)-Fast Boys of Il and others will meet in Bowling Green on May 15 and depart home on May 19. There is a link in the forum to sign up for the gathering, lots of activies for all. It will be my first time as I just got my Z last summer.
I am sure others will fill in more details. Hope to meet you soon.

Car has 17k miles on it - and is all original except for the wheels. I got a full set of original wheels with it - so I do have the "correct" wheels if I ever want to change back.

#1 - where can I find a owners manual for this car? I have window sticker, build sheet, and some brochure - but no manual and none of the fancy "book" stuff that originally came with?

I snagged the service manual supplement. Still looking at other stuff.
Question - I keep seeing these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevrolet-CO...eab01f&vxp=mtr
Listed as the "Owners Manual". But they have like 32 pages - which seems like too few for an actual "owners manual"? What exactly is in the hardcover books?? Would I need this AND the stuff like you listed in the first link as well??

I'm not sure the owner's manual is ZR-1 specific. Any 91 Corvette book has the information for all models- coupe, vert, and ZR-1.
