Congrats on getting it all back together and on the road again.

Looks great and really nice photos you took on the trip.

You have come a long way from that day you bought the 92 ZR-1 model.

Who would have imagined!

Remembering this quote of yours >>

"Yeah, I was excited, but not so much anymore. I feel like backing out and forgetting the whole thing. I'm worried about the possible damage. I don't have another $6000 to spend on another engine, or heads (heard those cost like 5k each? Yikes... what have I gotten myself into...) Could the head possibly be repaired if the damage is not too extensive? Maybe just replace the valves? "

And ZR-1 Brother "JEFF" told you

"you know what.. don't sweat it yet.. Check it out, be sure it is what you expected and go from there.. if you buy it and bring it home, then the fun begins.. Take your time, and go through everything.. "
