"Sport Handling Package"- What is it??

[WNH]

I obtained my Corvette’s original window sticker from NCM.



The original owner paid $970 for a “Sport Handing Package”.



Anyone know what that is??



Is it a common feature on C4’s?? Mine is a 1988 coupe.

The package was a carry over from the 87 model. It included combined elements of the RPO Z51 package with a softer suspension. RPO Z52 included the radiator boost fan, blistein shocks, engine oil cooler, heavy duty radiator, faster 13:1 ratio steering, larger front stabilizer bar and convertible styled structural improvements for the coupes. It came with newly styled 17 x 9.5 wheels with twelve cooling slots in the 88 model. (Info taken from the Corvette Black Book.)

If he ahs the window sticker would it not mention the Z52 or Z51 package, my 86 does.
