Re: how many zl1 motors were made
I know a guy that has 7 of the original ZL-1's. One is out of his 4000 mile orange ZL-1 Vette and the other 6 were over the counter

One yellow and the other white. Where did this orange one come from? Is it verified as a true ZL-1? Steve

Re: how many zl1 motors were made
`after owning a couple of the vintage ZL1 blocks / ZL1 motors I think now I would rather own a new block like this one here in the box, wow what a masterpiece. Too bad it's almost twice the money $10.k minimum cdn
 plus 2 taxes 15% here in Canada from my GM parts dealer.

In other words, can you mount the original ZL-1 top end, distributor, oil pan, timing cover, water pump, original crank, etc..? Steve

Re: how many zl1 motors were made
yes you can and I will if I can get one reasonably priced, I have another pair of NOS 077 ZL1 heads and an 198 intake I was saving to use on my next project, but this one i was going to make it 12-1 comp ratio.

[/ QUOTE ] I was looking on the web at a site that has the new block listed and it is $6,250.00. They seem to have a pretty reasonable price on most of their engines although I only started looking recently.The link is- http://www.crateenginedepot.com/stor...0-P233C24.aspx
