Engine: all 225+ RWHP
Transmission: all OD
Axle/Gears: Always the good ones
fIGURE UNDER 10 THOUSAND MADE FOR LT5 PRODUCTION VETTES
LIKE 3200 FOR 90 2000 FOR 91 AND 1500 OR SO'ISH FOR 93 AND ONLY 480 OR SO FOR 94-95(MAY HAVE BEEN 93-95 FOR THAT TOO)

rOUGH GUESSTIMATES DONT HAVE time to look up the actual numbers...............they did make a few available over the counter in the early 90's at one point and the only others were deemed service engines for the ZR1 vettes themselves..........

If i remember right , they were advertised for roughly 27k$(ouch)
later

ZR1's, the cars they came, are somewhat rare; but I think you can still order a complete new LT5 from GM.

I think any that GM are/were selling were just the ones that were left over. I don't think they are being produced any more.
