Welcome to the forum & ZR-1 family!

Watch out for RHanselman there in Vegas. He will be twisting your arm to rebuild the engine with 8:1 compression & putting the Raptor Twin Turbo system on it. Might as well if you're going into the engine.....drives like a stocker.......until......you put light the burners! Check his out.

FWIW, I read your post about the former owner replacing the main bearings while the pan was off. The engine has to be completely disassembled to replace the mains in an LT5. Maybe he replaced the rod bearings. That you can do with just the pan off.

Glad to have ya in the group!
