1996 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe " Special Order" LT4

1996 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe " Special Order" LT4 Description

So you’ve been searching for a 1996 Corvette Grand Sport but you don’t like the Admiral Blue and those funky red stripes. Well, there was an option and now you have found it! This is the one, I promise you. No disappointments here my friends.

This is a “ Special Order” direct from Bowling Green, Kentucky and it's absolutely spectacular !

This is a rare opportunity to buy a “Special Order” 1996 Corvette with the limited edition (RPO LT4 ) engine ( rated 330 H.P / 340 Torque ). Yes, this vehicle is equipped with that Grand Sport motor in it and its Black, the color you really wanted on your Corvette! You don't have to settle for what everybody else has. You can have the one you really want now. A Black 'Vette!

Yes, Rated at 330 horsepower, which is 30 horsepower over the LT1 engine, the LT4 had higher engine compression (10.8:1 versus 10.4:1), a new aluminum head design, Crane roller rocker arms, a revised camshaft profile, and other significant engine tweaks. And, this factory designed exhaust sounds like heaven with a growl. Really, you need to hear this. Pure joy.

As for the suspension, well, its all independent front and rear featuring SLA forged aluminum upper and lower control arms and steering knuckle and in the rear, a 5 link design with tow and camber adjustment. There was also a transverse monoleaf spring, steel tie rods and stabilizerin the rear. No, that's a lot of technology,even for 1996. Bottom line, the car handles great!

The LT4’s engine redline was increased to 6,300 rpm (versus the LT1 which redlined at 5,700 rpm). As a result, all LT4 Corvettes were equipped with an 8,000 rpm tachometer (versus LT1 Corvette’s which were equipped with a measly 6,000 rpm tachometer. How cool is that! And..Only the LT4 engines had red “Grand Sport” lettering on the throttle body of the motor for easy and accurate identification that you were driving a real LT4 in your Corvette. And, this one has it! It’s the real deal!

I’m telling you, this was state of the art for the day. This was one nasty V-8 featuring 90 degree overhead valve with double overhead camshafts, And for good measure and better performance this 5.7 liter engine came with a cast iron honed block with aluminum heads and a sequential Multi-Port Fuel Injection ( MPI ) system. Not bad for 1996.

So, how rare is this car you ask? Well, there were 17,167 1996 Corvette Coupes built. Of that only 6359 were built with 6 speed manual transmissions ( MN6 ) and only 3917 were built in Black ( 41 ) and only 751 were produced with the ( LT4 ) engine as a special order from the factory. Even less were produced with the light tan ( 643 ) leather interior. So, not a lot of these cars out there.

This car runs great!, Everything works as it should and there is a shine on this ebony black beauty that is a real plus for eye appeal.

There is not a mark on this car! Obviously, it has been well cared for and pampered over the years and the CARFAX is squeaky clean. No stories here. Its all there. Its the real deal! Don't let this one get away.

Now all you have to do is watch this magnificent specimen increase in value.

P.S I'm here for any questions or additional photos for qualified interested parties.
