Nice motor
I have a ZF6 speed to back it up if you need it.
Can't decide to sell it or put in in my '74

I'm assuming from your sig that you also have a '90 ZR-1 LT-5 w/ nitrous? Overkill! :cheers:

That would be the ultimate car. Classic chrome bumper C3 styling combined with the LT-5, GM's best engine ever.

The cars are so different. The LS-5 has a ton of low end torque but signs off early. The ZR-1 doesn't have much low end by comparison but it revs to the moon. The ZR-1 is faster by a good margin.

But, people hardly pay it any attention. The '71 is like fly paper. It generates much more interest.
