WHY? so someone 20 years from now can buy it for a little over what you paid for it? Even if you made twice what you paid for it, if you think about all that time storing it, washing it, and never driving it, you missed the boat.

Cars are meant to be used and enjoyed. you can't take them with you...

Had a customer come in last friday that ordered one. Wants to have it delivered to my shop from the dealer and modified extensively before he even drives it.

Told him he should just buy a reg. 2SS and we'd build it. He wants the ZL1 car,just doesn't want it slow. LOL

I love the people that store them and never drive it. Figure 20 years of keeping it perfect in a heated/A/C garage. Then they get double the listed price but it cost more than that storing it....LOL They lose $$ and don't even enjoy it.

Apparently he (or she) has money to burn...

I agree.. a 2SS would be a better (and cheaper) platform to start with. You would be swapping out most of the ZL-1 parts anyway.

Are you upgrading the S/C to something larger? or just gonna spin it Really, Really fast? LOL

We threw out ideas from headers,intake ect to stroker motor/pulleys ect. Even mentioned compound boosting it with twin turbo's.Some people just have to modify anything they get.
