That would be DMS Corvette Shop in Garland (suburb of Dallas). I sent them an email to see if they are familiar with ZR-1s, if they are, I'll check them out.

Precision Motive in Hayward Ca has worked on ZR-1s in the past but don’t know how extensive the Z knowledge is at that shop. I do know they put the automatic in the Steel Blue 91 with the Shinoda body kit floating around and worked out all the bugs,not sure who did the plumbing for the nitrous setup. The owner of the shop Pat Hendrix is a great guy to deal with and he’s had this shop for years.

Possibly the better solution is to list two categories. Vetted known level one “Master Shops” and level two “Basic Competency” Shops. Based on member feed back we can move shops between the two or out altogether.

What’s the story on South Georgia Corvette? Still in business? They did a lot of Z work 10years ago.

This also cropped up in a google search which google searches may also locate other ZR-1 Repair Shops (try several different searches regarding the ZR-1) ![]() ZR-1 Repair and Maintenance Costs

This just posted over on CF regarding the presale inspection on the low mile 90’ for sale in SOCAL. A good example why these shops need to be vetted.
H “My experience with Corvette Mike was terrible..I went to them as I wanted to have the best shop work and document on my low mile (17,000) ZR! car I purchased. They misquoted, charged extra, when the work was done and I picked it up, only to find out they didn't test drive it . it didn't run any better...THEY DIDN'T EVEN TEST DRIVE IT AFTER PLENUM/INJECTOR SERVICE..... they apologized and wanted me to give them a chance to correct the problem. I did.....They told me it was a bad TPS, (TPS was replaced with new delco by me) only to find out that the TPS connector was them problem ..This was a 1600++ repair for injector and plenum removal and they didn't test drive it..(I know, hard to believe)......The worst part was when service manager (carl) tried to tell me he he spent 4 hours diagnosis and it should cost an extra 4-500 dollars.....Since then I have found many people have had issues with Corvette MIke...I would not recommend this business as they have no accountability”

Sounds like they screwed up, but not sure that you want to test drive your Z! I always pop the hood and do a visual inspection and then tell them you’ll be right back. U road test it and either give them a thumbs up or get into to them to fix it right!
BTW-tell them there are no greasy finger prints on the engine and you don’t want to see them when you pick up the car! Sent from my iPhone using ZR-1 Net Registry
