What's a conversion like that cost, if you don't mind me asking. I'm interested in doing that. :smash:
Well, my conversion cost me $2500 and a lot of emotional stress... seeing as how I wrecked the auto and just bought the LT4 ;)

Well, almost nothing. :D

I'll see your LT5 and raise you a 365 RWHP LT1 :jester

It's all good :cheers:
Our good friends have a 94 383 stroker 6-spd with 4:09 gears, 380rwhp 380 rwtq....and it could not shake my ZR-1....0 to 140 only pulled about a foot on the good ol' stock Z. :D I was amazed. ;)

I thought I was crazy wanting to buy a 6 speed corvette but after buying this thing I really enjoy it. Even with the stop and go sometimes traffic. Nuffin beats rowing thru the gears with the LT4 pushing it. :smash: :cheers:

I bet a 383 would beat it! :jester :jester :jester


[Modified by R94 LT 1, 7:11 AM 10/8/2002]
I'm sure that are lots of cars that will beat mine, just not stock ones. :jester :jester

Congrats on the new ride. Glad to see you back in the saddle. Were you able to save any of your favorite mods from the old Glockmobile to put on this one? Going to go for a set of stripes? I'd definitely recommend the Hurst short shift. I love it on my car. Don't forget to kill the CAGS and congrats again! :cheers:

Yep, i saved my wheels, the forced air kit, and lots of other things. Couldn't save the engine/tranny though :(.

Yeah, I'm going to kill the CAGS as soon as I get a chance :cheers:

Congradulations on getting another vette so quick. Does it feel stronger than the 383 or do you even know yet?

383 was stronger... definitely more torque. But i'm fine with the LT4 :).
