Yes they are mine. The Ferrari is an '85 308 GTB, and about as different from the ZR-1 as a sports car can get. I know it like the back of my hand, while the Corvette is very new to me. I'm enjoying the difference!

Thanks! Yes both are 4-cam 32 valve V8s, but the ZR-1 is nearly twice the displacement of the 308! Totally different driving experiences.

My Uncle has a 91 Testarossa with the flat 12 4.9 liter DOHC-380 hp@6300rpm using US stats as equipped with cat converters. But weighs around 3300lbs. He has an aftermarket exhaust without cats on his.. What year is your 308? (82-85??) and your ZR-1? Ive always loved the sound of the high revving V8's, the 2.8 has a red line of 7700rpm.

The ZR-1 is a '90 with 44k now and has become my daily driver, so the miles will keep piling up. Still sorting a few little drivability issues from being stored so long, but it goes like a bat outta hell. It weighs at least 500lbs more than the 308, maybe more, but the P/W ratio is considerably higher. Funny when some friends came over and asked "how much faster is the Ferrari?" They didn't believe me when I said the Corvette was a LOT faster. Having two 7000+ cars in the garage is a blast! I highly recommend picking one up. ![]() I thought this was a really cool pic. Faceoff! ![]()

Excellent, thanks for your response. You sure do have a gem their in it being an 1985 Euro 2.8 QV.
Is your 308 right or left hand drive, sorry I cant tell from the pics. My Uncles 1991 Test had 7,000 miles on it when he bought it. He did the timing belts on it by himself, it was quite a job. Now he has 17,000 miles on it and he enjoys going on "tours" with it, he even gets on teh racetrack with it for some sort of paced racing action. Is there any sort of maintenance that you have to really follow with the 2.8QV? My Uncle was nervous about the timing belts on the 4.9 flat 12 being so old, even with low miles, so he swapped them just to be sure. The 208's had the 2.0l V8 which were the smallest production V8 built IIRC. Take care.
