Lee,

Swap the TBs. The black one needs the 63mm more than the 92 does.

Lee, your engine looks like my brother lt5. But only have same painting, my brother's engine are stock. He did a complete engine rebuild one year ago but all inside are stock only SW heders, SW X pipe, B&B exhaust ,Fidanza flywheel, Mopar 4.10. , Marc H. Tune, new shrowd + 2 speed Motorcraft single fan, BAER 6 pistons front brake and DeWitts Radiator.
Paint are VHT black wrinkle

I think do what xfirez51 said it's the best way to go.
Lee if you have stock and 63mm TB it's better install the big one and you will have the engine ready for a good Tune.
I can't wait to see your Dyno engine numbers.
This is all the stuff we plug to the car when we tune our ZR1.

Toni,

Where did you get all the proms?
Pujols? Any relation to the futbol player?

[Toni94ZR1]

I have proms for all the years of ZR1, 12 in total, from different sources, Rockauto, eBay, Marc H .... on 2008 I bought 5 from Rockauto. Now is dificult to find proms.
We have some spare parts for our Z, brand new crankshaft, 40.000 miles 1990 ZR1 engine bought in Madrid one year ago for 1.700 euros (about 2200 USD), 2 ZF S6-40, 2 differencial, plenums, sterters, water pumps ....
We are 6 friends have ZR1:
one 94 zr1, two 93 zr1, three 90 zr1
and all of us have some spare parts.
The zr1 it's our drug ! so we need parts to keep the Z's running.
Here in Spain we know about 25 ZR1, all from 90 to 93 and only one 94 (my ZR1).

Nooo, I have not any relation to Puyol (Barcelona futbol player) but I saw him with Gererd Pique ( boyfrient of Shakira) two weeks ago in Barcelona. Great guys.

Lee Scored big time on the 368 pistons. If you dont have a pistons yet, and have to buy them new go for the 380 ci.

Polo-1, 380ci is at the same price than a 368 ?
If i'm wright ,on a 368 engine only change liners and pistons from stock, but on a 380 ci need liners, pistons and a new crankshaft and maybe conecting rods.
