Default LT5 Installation (WAZOO Team)

Phase 1 of Yun's (Second Chance) LT5 installation was completed today by an enthusiastic group of ZR-1 owners. The event drew ZR-1's from Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New Jersey.

Here is a photo of the assembled group at the WMD garage (L to R: Scott, Rich, Nelson, Bob, Jim, Glenn, Charlie, Darrin, Yun, Kevin, Tom, Ron, Jim, Dempsey, Tina)



A thing of Beauty! Yun's 380 cubic inch LT5 arrives from the WAZOO Engine assembly site in Northern Virginia:



Glenn, Darrin and Tom installing the headers:

Tom, Rich, Yun and Glenn positioning the LT5 over the engine bay. Dempsey is under the car to guide the engine mounts onto the frame:




Lowering the rear of the engine to allow aft movement so the crank pulley will clear the frame rail in front of the engine:




Here are some of the ZR-1s here for the day:






After the engine was in the car, we began Phase 2 to install all of the wiring, the hoses and front end accessories and the drive train.

Stay tuned....

Jim
