Wouild you guys pay that?
 
Low miled LT5 & tranny...i understand there werent many Zr1's made...but think about what kind of LT/LS motor you could put together for that dough.

Reall cool motor and low miles. But I think it's worth half what he wants if not less

deadtrend1 11-15-2009 02:06 PM

thats not bad price. The 95 LT5's (which are the more desired i think) go for around $20,000 to $25,000. And thats without the zf transmission.

If I had expendable income(still waiting to hit the lottery or to start my drug selling career lol), yes...I'd absolutely spend that much and swap into something for the wow factor.

sweetbmxrider 11-15-2009 02:20 PM

the rarity, low miles, and exponential power levels would sway me.

NastyEllEssWon 11-15-2009 02:41 PM

the fact that the setup can do 200 mph also makes it worth it. dont let the power fool you on that motor....that thing would swamp anything on the highway....especially in a fbody

BonzoHansen 11-15-2009 02:43 PM

Plus you are paying for rarity. that guy runs 10-20% high IMO anyway.

FlyingDutchman 11-15-2009 02:51 PM

Absolutely!

The wow factor is really up there.

Good luck with the repair bills though... now if you had to money to blow, sure why not. Be nice to tell people you have a LT5 and what not.

sweetbmxrider 11-15-2009 03:09 PM

and its really a corvette only specific motor!

LTb1ow 11-15-2009 03:10 PM

Yea because theres so many places around here you can drive 200 mph :rofl:...That dude was powershifting and only cut a 12.9.

If you got the money to pay for that, you can find a place to go that fast. :nod:

Yea I know he said the highway though. Maybe the autobahn but nowhere around here.

LTb1ow 11-15-2009 03:28 PM

True, but again, if you got the money for the ticket, whats wrong with the good ole GSP?

:)

sweetbmxrider 11-15-2009 03:31 PM

They typically run faster than that....don't judge a car by a crap driver. By your logic your car isn't fast since you don't race yours at the track right?(not saying that to be a ass, just proving a point).

They're also not dedicated 1/4 mile cars either.

sweetbmxrider 11-15-2009 03:45 PM

they are very stout motors and the heads flow like a mother! very capable in the right hands no doubt

I must be missing it. My car isnt fast...never said it was, and that has nothing to do w/ if i race it or not. What crappy driver would that be the professional driver/development manager of the corvette in the video:rofl:? Maybe they should have called you to drive it.

They've gone a bit faster stock(unless the videos I've seen weren't stock cars). The reason I said what I said is because you're judging the motor on a 1/4 mile time. You've done it before like the 1/4 mile time is some magical end all be all stat. The car isn't set up for the drag strip. Somehow a 12.9 makes it less of a motor or something(the reason I brought up your racing history, or lack thereof is because you seem to have an arrogance about you and track times of other cars).

I never claimed I was some great driver but I have no doubts about my ability, kthanxbye.

sweetbmxrider 11-15-2009 04:25 PM

the zr-1 wasn't a drag car. it was a race car that set world records for track speeds.
