Lot of car for the money with that one..To me the 91-95 are basically the same car except for the interior..Many will say the later years have Dunn heads and a bit more power....Trust me, if you buy a stock ZR-1 you will mod it so once you get into porting, the years won't make a difference..

It’s a nice car, I remember seeing the pics of it. I must admit, I am partial to the later style seats in the Z (‘94-‘95), they provide a little more back/shoulder support for me. I can understand wanting to extract the untapped potential of the Z, I have read about how much potential is there. I saw that Dave McLellan had Haibeck perform some work, 50 hp alone was gained from porting cylinder heads and the top end.

I was able to see McLellan’s “Z REX” in the Summer of 2004. I thought his license was great. He had stopped at Bob McDorman’s Chevrolet in a Corvette caravan along with Corvette team members (I think the were on the current Corvette engineering team at the time). The group was receiving a private tour of Mr. McDorman’s collection. I can’t emphasize how gracious Mr. McLellan was, he took time to answer my questions and have a few pictures taken, just an incredible individual.
