What's a ZR2 Corvette?
No C4 came with that engine from the factory.

Yep. No 454 "came from the factory"...that you could BUY, but they did make a prototype ZR2 454 in the early 90's. About the same time they made the Falconer V12 mule.

Are you looking for info on installing a big block in your C4? If you are looking for a good way to make that big block look clean and fly, this thread should really help you. Its the one you started about converting L98's into crossfires.

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c4-g...crossfire.html

That would be nice. Nice new big block with an 84 CFI...

Keep us posted with pics on your progress towards your goal.

What a rush that must be to feel the torque in that beast when the pedal to the metal is in progress.
