Default Re: GMMG ZL1

careful not to wake the guy on the other post! i was offered one because i owned a 1969 ZL1 car #13 cortez silver, but also knew matt murphy. i believe that 4 people currently own both. bill porterfield, ken barnhardt, charlie lillard, kevin hand, any others, i'm not sure.
as you became one to order these cars you were given the option of the stage 1 and stage 2 up front, with popular demand for obvious reasons the stage III became available , but , was very hard for matt ot obtain the engines from chevrolet, at first they were to punch the LS6 motor, but, were able to get chevrolet to produce the blocks made it good for all the owners of the 427's, then off to DEI enterprises.
i feel this move by chevrolet adds validity to their commitment behind the car, why else would chevrolet participate in the high performance end of it. i'm with stefano , COPO, b4c police order, slick top, 427, i'm happy!

I think Carl Stuber got both, too. Not sure if he's hanging on to the new one, though.

When you say the phase III has the 427, do you mean a stroked out small block or is it a big block? [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
