thanks guys! ya back then a 315 rear tire as oem was unheard of; it was considered a steamroller, and because of that all ZR-1s had the bodywork in the rear specially built to accommodate the huge tire (interesting aside; '96 Grand Sports also got the big tires, but they had standard rear bodywork with glue on fender flare lips). I love the look of that LT5 motor too!!!
and just finished installation of the front rock guards today (I didn't get the rear ones because after watching the youtube videos it seemed that they might not fit as nicely with the additional aero on my ZLE). it also seemed to me that the front tires throwing rocks back onto the rear haunches would be like 90% of the danger anyway. so got my front guards on
