Default Does anyone know what this is?

An old friend of mine gave me this and I'm just curious about what it is and the value of it? Its a certified professional tech kit by GM never seen one before. Its for the early 90's ZR-1 LT5s.

Not sure but you could ask the guys in the C4 section, since it based on the LT5.

Looks like some type of certification test for the LT-5.

Since the LT-5 was a completely different engine from the LT1 and LT4 engines, its to educate techs on the differences I guess.

sure a zr1 collector would love to get their hands on it. as for value. i really doubt you're going to find comparable sales to establish going rate from. it's almost like you ask and see who offers what

I've never seen one either, but that would be a cool item to have if you had a ZR-1.

looks like the test you had to go take when the zr1 came out. i can remember the first year when they came out. my dad and his best friend went to pick one up from dealer. the our friend bought. he wasnt allowed to drive it without going and taking the class first so they loaded it on the car hauler and when they got down the road they unloaded it. let me say it didnt turn out very well after that.

My dad has a '90 ZR1 and has a birthday coming up. He would go nuts over this. Please PM me if you decide on a price.

I'm no Sherlock Holmes or even John Holmes , but if I understand your two posts, it would seem your family friend unloaded his ZR-1 and subsequently killed himself in it. Am I off the mark?
