Default Big Block Chevy swapped into ZR1

https://youtu.be/gFEyDQ9rGXQ



3rd brake light up high and the 8K tach at the 0:11 second mark.

Anyone know who and why?

is this really a C4 ZR-1?

If my motor blew that's what I would do.

I would have to put another LT5 in the car. To each their own!

Big block is just a lot cheaper to get HP out off. 496 motors are cheap to build.

HERESEY!

If I wanted a big power car it wouldn’t be a ZR-1! It would be a Supercharged LS motor with a modern engine management system.

To each his own I suppose...

Right at 600 HP 600 tq. No emissions where I live so if my motor blew and block was trash. Only in that case would I do it.

Between the suspension, brakes, and wheels, there is plenty of money in that car. I am sure it hauls major a** too!

How can you tell? It has all the marking of a z, less the interior power key and it looks like carbon fiber dash panels or such.

At first thinking same as Jeff and not a ZR-1 but still cool. I would do the same if the LT5 blew up on day. Hmm, maybe it is a ZR-1 after looking again at the license plate area. Anyway, it sounds nasty and awesome.
