Thanks for all your thoughts and suggestions, guys. Matt did make it back home late yesterday, and his ZR-1 is safely tucked in the garage at the moment. Sometime this week he intends to pull the plenum to replace the positive battery cable to the starter. Of course he will have to get another alternator, but I'll suggest we take his broken one apart to try to determine what happened to it. His Optima battery has been questionable for some time now, so I plan to suggest its replacement with a new Interstate battery--the big, heavy-duty, correct one for the ZR-1. I bought one of those for my ZR-1 last year and it's been great. Does anyone have a suggestion as to where to buy the best alternator currently available? I know Matt has used several sources in the past, but every one he's bought has been less than reliable for him. Thanks again for your help with this issue.
