Special edition vehicles.... I just finished reading about the "Pro AM III" and found it quite interesting.
Are there any other special addition vehicles out there?
Post some interesting topics of any other shops (past or present) doing SAV's.

Special edition vehicles.... No sir, to my knowledge none had a 454 UNLESS it was the very last one built which was owned by Mike Carnahan (the lead mechanic at GMMG) which was rated at 700 h.p. and was a tribute to Grumpy Jenkins and was a solid roller engine as shown below:
The base package was a LS-6 engine with 400 h.p. The Phase II package was the same LS-6 engine with cam, headers and special computer tuning and was rated at 475 h.p. The Phase III package was the C5R 427 with a special cam, headers and computer tuning rated originally at 600 h.p. but the later conversions to ZL-1's that were sent back to GMMG were rated at 630 h.p. The Phase II package could also be stepped up to 500 h.p.
The determining factor was just how deep your pocket was.

Special edition vehicles.... And I believe you are correct. I was thinking that Mike's #69 Grumpy Jenkins tribute ZL-1 was a 427 car but without making a phone call or two, I couldn't be certain.
And before I get your P.M., I pretty sure that I know the #2 car you are referring to as the owner of that car and I have spoken before but he would like to keep this quiet for now. His car, while being an extremely special GMMG car, is not a ZL-1 either.
Correct? Last edited by 02_Phase2_ZL1; May 17, 2008 at 09:03 PM.
Yes I am making the annual trek down south. Gonna bring the LT4, that car hasn't seen the public in about 10 years!
Looking forward to seeing everyone.
See you Thursday
Safe trip and see you on Thursday. Oh and I am embarrassed to have not said a HUGE "THANKS" for the DVD(s) you had sent to me of the previous years photos.
