Default Re: 2002 ZL1

I have had the GREAT OPPORTUNITY of driving a couple different Phase III 427 ZL-1's and the thing that most impresses me is going 60 MPH in 4th gear and putting your foot into it and the car LIFTING and setting you back in your seat.The suspension is really dialed in also.

Check engine light is the 1 problem I'm having. I have put a couple of quarts in her already.
The other is losing to a 99z28 spraying 150 shot. But at least I look good doing it.

Mike you got any pics. That is an unusual color combo.

And from a roll, too?! What "phase" is your car? Looks like you were pulling away until he sprayed you, but still a darn close run...nice vid!

Rob- its a phase 3. Got 800 miles on it. WOuld have loved to stretch it further, but running out of road was the stopping factor. He was in an auto. He made the jump ahead on my 2 to 3 shift.


Anyone else have the service engine light flashing?

The difference is if you both would have kept going he couldn't have kept up with the NOS forever and your Car would have just kept pulling. You just let off too soon. You can always add NOS.

That video was awesome. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] Those 99 Z-28s are pretty quick! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] I wish mine would run like that. As for the oil consumption, I have found out on the CamaroZ28.com message boards(ls1 tech) that the 98-99 LS-1s were worse about oil consumption than the 00-02s because in the new ones they used LS6 rings. What type of rings did they use in the ZL1s? What type of exhaust system is on the ZL1? Is it the the chambered type that gmmg makes with longtube headers? Because it sounds a lot better than the flowmaster american thunder system on my car!

I'll have to try from a dead roll, but his was an auto. My SS has been beaten by less hp cars and autos due to it being a stick. I would imagine it to be the same way in the ZL1.
