To compare as best I can, I’ve been trying to locate online videos of LT-5 engine starts to see if I can find one with similar start issues I experienced. This search has helped me in that I found several vids that seem to be good examples of how the LT-5 should sound at start-up. Here is another ‘91 that starts perfectly, this is a considerably smoother start that what I experienced:

Once I find the right car, I will send it to Haibeck to have it gone through to address any issues. And the 510 package!... that must be one heck of a nice ZR-1! Thank you for your input.

That 1st car is the one I bought lol!! And yes, it starts smooth. But over time I do notice chain rattle on start up....it's just a LT5 thing. I have notice after an oil change ( I use Amsoil 10w-40 ) that the rattle smooths itself out. I hope you find the Z your looking for, these cars are a special piece of history
