Nice car, how's the gas mileage after the 3.90 rear end gear? You said 6th was more usable, but how hard is it breathing at 75-80? Hope to be in the market soon, your car is a great example of how well these cars can modified and if it's still around when I can pull the trigger I'll definitely give you a call.

Had to chime in on this one.....That Z should be fine at 75-80 on the highway....390s in that car is a blast....I have a 91 ZR1 with some nice mods and stock gearing and sixth gear is useless at highway speeds..
You want to talk about lousy gas mileage,have a 73 stingray with a worked 350, 4 speed with 370 gears..........Wish I had a fifth gear forget about a sixth gear...lol
Good luck with that silver Z.....Nice set up........ Wanna trade?

......MPGs aren't really impacted too much by the gears.....the performance mods(heads/cam/IM/etc) had more of an impact since it's much more fun to drive. All in all it still gets much better gas mileage than my Tundra

For any potential buyers. I went and looked at this Z weeks back. It is "as described", ridiculously clean and well cared for. Jason is a true car enthusiast and a person who you hope to deal with. Unfortunately for me I had to halt my search temporarily.
Good luck buddy

OP do you go to the Great Falls Card and Coffee a lot? If so I've seen this car quite a few times and I can vouch and it is always clean and well taken care of. OPs description of the condition is spot on.
