Default Re: 69 Zl1 Corvette

I have read the post's about the L-88 and the ZL-1 option codes. Remember L-88 was a package not just a motor. The L-88 package was required before the ZL-1 engine could be installed. Just as an L-71 was required before an L-89 could be added. Each package had prerequisits for the next stage of performance. ZL-1 did not include the brake and suspension package that an L-88 did. So the L-88 code was the base platform to install the ZL-1 motor. Don't look at an option code as simply a motor. Study all the requirement's to satisfy the option code.

Hope this helps.

Mike
