Hello Warren
I just got back home from Bloomington Gold show. I missed seeing you there. The white LS-6 was a Canadian car ordered new. The owner told me the information at the of the sale.

here I was thinking that it set a new E.T. record in the 1/4 mile.....how things change!

Chris,

I'm not sure you would want to set this new 1/4 mile E.T. record in this particular car. It was factory ordered as M22, MA6 & 3:08 ratio!!!!

But I do believe it might have set a good record at the Bonneville Salt Flat runs. Maybe the flying mile runs timed in both directions.

------Warren,,,I would have loved to run into you at BG. Finally went back at Danas insistence and had a lot of fun. Thought of you when I was looking at an LS6 rolling chassis (roadster) in Dick Ferrandos booth. Do you have the info on that one??? He had a bunch of paperwork displayed with it as well..........Bill S

Bill,

Yes, Dick called me needing a tough to find fuel line bracket for his LS6 ZR2. He has sent me copies of the factory paperwork. That is the sixth ZR2 we have found now.

I missed Bloomington this year, as I needed to get my other LS6 running, I've had it for over a year, in fact I bought it in unrunning condition. It had a bad camshaft/lifter, took me awhile but I managed to locate an original NOS GM 3904362 cam and 5232695 lifters for it.
I will definitely be there next year, hopefully we can get together again. Warren

-------Geez,,,Warren. I completely missed the fact that it was a ZR2. Guess I didnt look anywhere near close enough at the paperwork, huh???.............Bill S

What's the number on Dicks car? No paint roadster with docs. Roy Sinor wants 500Gs for the Ontario Orange one. Are they worth that much?

Bill, was that you driving Roby's L71 onto the stage? I was standing there with Bramati, but, didn't recognize you (if it was you).

Regards,

Mark
