1) I would like it way more if it was a 6spd
2) LT4 Corvettes are my favorite C4s, and since it isn't one; please take off the "Grand Sport" badges.
Otherwise, excellent car. Admiral Blue is my favorite color.

I think that's a very valid point. I understand it's a Grand Sport replica and everything, but the "Grand Sport" badge is a bit much, especially if it doesn't even have an LT4. A regular Corvette badge would be just fine.
Edit: And the "I would like it way more if it was a 6spd" thing was a joke, if you couldn't tell.

thanks for the compliment
For the GS , the previous owner installed that, and I dont really care about removing it since it's a corvette !!! and if someone asking is this a real GrandSport ? I'd say no , it's a clone .
I have no plans right now except a decent pcm tune .
and LS swap +m6 in the future since the car has Dana 44, it would be easy to swap transmission to a t56. but this is a future plan.
.
Yes, I know many and a friend of mine swaped his '86 to procharged LS1.

Do people do LS swaps in those very often? That would be interesting

I can't fault you for leaving it as-is because the previous owner did it, but I can't help but draw a parallel between labeling a regular Civic as a "Type R," a regular Camaro as an "SS," a regular Trans Am as a "WS6," or a regular C5 as a "Z06." I'm a HUGE Corvette fan, and it just doesn't seem right to me. But I'm sure you'll have a great time with the car. Have fun with it!
keep it clean! is it original 40K? if so then thats amazing! its really rare to find such clean cars where we live...

No, dont bastardize such a nice C4 with a swap. Find a crappy older C4 for a LSX, T56 swap. You can pull more than enough power outta that drivetrain. Stroke or Procharge it.
