Congrats on your LT-4. I had one and am a big fan of those 1-year only wonders. They were the last of the cast-iron small blocks and GM wanted them to go out with a bang. The end of an era. You gotta love the reverse cooling. It's a shame that particular feature didn't carry over to the LS-series that followed afterwards. Always wanted to build a 383 CID version to have some fun with.

Jeff:

Thanks for the PM and the info. I also had a Grand Sport that I ordered new. It was a Z51 Coupe and I kept it for 8 years and only put 1,600 miles on it. I just loved that car but decided to sell it at Bloomington Gold. I wish I wouldn't have but it didn't make sense to keep it as a "bottle" car and it was just too nice to start driving. Anyway, I always loved the LT4 and this one fits the bill pretty nicely and the top goes down. Ed
