As for the engine pulls the spark plugs and crank the engine over to make sure no water is in the combustion chamber. after that put a little auto trans fluid down the spark plug holes and crank it over as it will coat everything and keep it from forming surface rust. Was it running when it went under water?

Ye, I did all that. You don't think I would try to compress water
The engine & all that, I'm sure is in fine shape. I'll either sell all, or save it for a blown engine 07/08 Z. After all, the engine is strong, trans. & clutch are new(400miles) & an 11lb. alum. fly wheel, plus test pipes & full exhaust.
That's a nice car you're buying. Lux. plus 12 seconds 1/4 mile. My engine with headers, exhaust, & a tune should give me similiar H.P as your car. I guess I can always add a supercharger later. I want to do 11.5 bracket racing. It's fun racing a whole bunch of different cars. I won a couple of trophies with a broken 2nd. gear trans
. At some of the big import meets, I can have 70/80 cars in one class. Racing against them & winning is much more fun then just time runs.
nice to hear from you
