Question 1990 Vette- Purchase Input

Considering buying 1990 (not ZR1), west coast car with a cracked head and has been sitting for about a year. Car has 160,000 miles. Should I have any other concerns? Thoughts appreciated.

No reason to have more concerns than you would with any nealry 20-year old car with a cracked head. If you get it for a good price and go into it with your eyes open, it ought to be a fun project. If it were me, I would assume I'm going to have to rebuild the brakes and suspension, etc., and I'd drop a good 350-385 HP crate engineinto it rather than even try to fix the engine.
