Hey everyone, this is my fourth SS/sc (still have 3 currently) just picked this baby up in Connecticut, RED SS with a tvs, 2.4l stroker zzp block. Dual pass with option B and intercooler. methanol kit, zap 3 inch CAI and full exhaust. Someone on here must know the original owner or have helped him along the way on here at some point. The kid I bought it from said it was his stepfather's, he sold it to someone who messed up the motor and the step son bought it back because he loved the car. A year later and he decided to sell it but didnt know much about it, he never worked on it. So now I'm the proud owner trying to revive this beast. It's either got a chain slapping valve cover issue and/or a rod bearing knock. Car still runs but shes hurt for sure. Knock is very evident at idle. Trying to get as much info as I can on the car while I get ready to tear into it. Havent owned a 2.4 before but I have two more 07s stage 2. Ones been my daily for 3 years. Thanks anyone who can put me in the right direction!

Most recent addition to my growing cobalt family

 

Welcome! Engine bay pics?

 

Pretty rare, someones gota recognize this thing lol

 

im from CT and we had a HUGE meet back in the end of the haydays.... no one showed up or was talking about a stroker back then.... that was probably 7 or so years ago

 

Yeah this is a fully built ZZP stroker block and heads, oddly they cant seen to give me any info about it whatsoever. He says they dont keep track of the motors and cant find the invoice I sent them screenshots of because they changed systems since them. I believe the motor was built around 2015

 

Might be a 2.1

 

Nope, one of the few pieces I have is part of a zzp email of mods that says zzp 2.4l stroker lsj. Someoneeee has to know this car, it's got too much work into it to have never been seen before lol

 

Some people dont always post everything online. They just enjoy it for themselves.

 

Yes I'm one of those people until now lol this is my 4th Cobol SSI read the forums often but I don't write any however people around the race track and around my area all know my car. This read one has to be known somewhere race track car me anything is too much time and love into it for no 1 to have seen him before lol

 

There should be an ID code stamped into the head and/or block above the bellhousing

 

He knows a thing or 2 you know^

 

I'll have to check, thanks. Zzp didnt mention anything and said they have no way of knowing what motor/head/valve combo was used and cant look it up though

 

Somewhere in the universe Ryan D is pointing right now

 

Yep!
