Like i had said in one of my previous posts ... the ones i found were only the cars i could positively identify with a picture of the front of the supercharger., where the plaque was visible... most of the others either had no plaque or had no pics of the engine compartment.
I've checked hundreds of 2020 ZL1's so far on different car sights... but i haven't checked out a thousand yet... its very time consuming. I check once in awhile when i have time..., but to all the others out there... if you guys have one or see one... please take a pic for proof and take down the last 5 digits of VIN and color and trans type... and if its a 1LE or not. Feel free to help |

54, wow I thought it would be alot more for sure!
Thanks so much Andrew for doing this. When the world gets back to normal hopefully someone at GM can explain how the ZL1s got these engines. It certainly would be interesting to know! I wonder also if they were just all cars built in a certain date range? For example did they decide to use the engines and put them in the ZL1s sequentially or did specific cars get them? Thanks again Andrew |

Well... to answer your question the best i can Snakebt6, its seems to be mixed.
What i'm trying to say is... the ZL1 cars having been built early on in the 2020 production year or low VIN numbers cars if you prefer are very few having the "hand-built plaqued LT4's" i'm sure that i had seen somewhere a low VIN number ZL1 somewhere in the 900 range having an engine builder plaque... but that was before i started gathering info and writing it down. So... i cannot confirm this anymore, sorry about that. The info i have so far , is a ZL1 with VIN number L01-03032 that has a plaque, car is in Ontario Canada, a white A10 convertible at Finch Chevrolet dealer. After and before that... very few ZL1 cars have the plaque. Why?...i don't know. The plaqued-engine ZL1's are more frequent starting around VIN numbers 11000 and up. Even around the 11000 VIN number range i've most cars not having a plaqued as to cars that had one. But i cannot give you a percentage. If only i had acces to more info and proof to confirm the info, i would be able to get you precise numbers and percentages. On the internet... anyone can say just about anything and people will believe... but i'm not like that. I like facts...and good pictures to back those facts. I do the best i can with what i get. Even if i take interest in these "hand-built LT4 ZL1's" that exist... it doesn't mean i do not like all the others or find them to be of lesser quality. As someone said in an earlier post... and i agree , that ALL the engines produced by GM at which-ever production plant all follow the same strict guidelines and specs during assembly with check-points along the way to ensure optimum performance and reliability. Same rules for all. So we're all created equal Its just fun to have something that's unusual. Its like my other Camaro, its a 2002 SS with an LS1... but it has an LS6 block casting from the factory which is also rare. Its still basically an LS1 because engine all internals and the engine heads are LS1. Anyway, take care Andrew |
