Agreed but pretty sweet motor. There's a dyno vid in the lower right corner.

Was the CHMSL not installed for European ZR-1s?

It is not sticking through the hood;it is bolted to the hood!

Looks like that intake would have fit easily under a high rise hood. But no, Guido wanted a car that lived up to his name, so he takes the one thing that the ZR-1 is famous for, (the legendary engine), and gets rid of it.

Living proof that the Corvette Hobby is no stranger to tasteless flights of fancy. Oh, the shame of it all.

The clear garden hose coming off the valve covers and the DUCT tape on the fan shroud only add to the detail on this fine automobile. Can't wait to see it on the show circuit.
