ZR-1 #1930 with Firehawk #010
I got these 2 in the same garage for the first time this afternoon. I can't wait for spring to finally be sprung so I can get the 2 of 'em out together for some proper photographs.

Re: ZR-1 #1930 with Firehawk #010
375hp 5.7 liters of overhead cam revvs vs. 350 hp 5.7 liter of T-rammed fury(unless it was a 366 aluminum Rodeck block rated at 375hp, which this one isnt). It would make for an excellent drag race IMO. A very special car indeed.
These 92 Firehawks are slightly more rare than the 29 Firehawks that SLP built for MY 1997 with the hand build balanced and blueprinted and dynoed LT4's. 0-60 4.6 seconds 1/4 mile 12.9-13.2et 160mph top speed 0.94 g's of cornering There 25 built numbered 1-27, but numbers 18 + 23 were cancelled. There was a competition "R" option available that was installed on 8 of the cars, #002, 003, 004, 005, 008, 008, 009 ,025, 027 Aluminum 366 cube Rodeck engine(375hp) 3 cars 025, 026, 027 T-Tops 1 (#025 Convertible 1 (#027) Ed Hamburger himself used to test drive each Firehawk personally until he was convinced it was perfect. He was known to have put anywhere between 80 to 300 miles on one of these cars getting it to where he was satisfied. Due to this fact, there are no super low mileage Firehawks, the lowest mileage Firehawk known is #012 with only 100 miles. Thanks to http://www.92firehawk.com/ for the stats. Excellent cars, I cant wait to see some pics of them together. peace Hog |

Re: ZR-1 #1930 with Firehawk #010
I'd love to see more of the Firehawk!
Is it one of the "unusual" ones SLP made? I believe they made a couple that were like 377ci with aluminum blocks, and some other variations on the T-ram 350. Edit: nevermind, Hog's post answers all my questions.
