    Full Weatherstrip Replacement

    Hardest part by far is getting the old stuff out. Its glued in unlike most newer cars. Putting it all back together was easy enough. Take your time. Don't by the cheap weatherstripping, Wilcox seems to have a good product, lesson learned.

    How Do You Like The Sound Of My Exhaust?

    I have the same setup under my 93, I think its a perfect combination myself. Not too loud, deep, throaty, yet loud enough at the same time.

    Video: C4 corvette LT1 vs C7 corvette LT1

    Needless to say the C4 is not stock. The LT1 (2nd Gen) has NOTHING on the 3rd Gen LT1. Other than being a LOT cheaper to buy. LOL.

    1996 Intake Air Temperature Sensor Relocation

    Only place it might help is at the drag strip and the engine heat soaks between runs. Then again I open my hood for a reason. That being said, I've ran data logs on my 93 on hot summer days and saw ZERO spark retard at ALL throttle positions on 93 octane fuel. If its not pulling timing on a...

    Question: 1993 Corvette Tire fitment

    They will fit just fine. However, more tire selection with 275/40/17 size. Assuming these are 56+ mm offset? C4's can actually take 315's up front on 11 wide wheels and 335's out back on 12 wide wheels with only minor rubbing at full lock up front.

    Help! What brand wheel hub?

    No offense but if the cost of a rear hub at $110 scares you. You may want to reconsider Corvette ownership. Maybe even reconsidering owning any car because that is cheap compared to MANY ordinary vehicles sports cars or not. That being said RockAuto.com has some great deals even with the...

    CAM 2 Fuel

    I just run Sunoco 93 all the time. NO knock retard even on a 90 degree day at least not according to my scan tool data. Granted I have a LT1 with 10.5:1 not the 10.8:1 of the LT4.

    LT4 LT4 Oil Analysis

    I don't use Blackstone for my Corvette, as I change oil yearly regardless of mileage but its usually 3-4K on it. However, I have been using them for my DD and am very pleased with the info they can give me. It has allowed me to extend my service intervals to approx. 7500miles on 0w20 Mobil 1...

    AC piping in Eng compartment

    NO The condensation is because the low side pressure on the low side of the A/C system gets cold. Warm humid air condenses on a cool/cold surface. Its completely normal. I would just leave a working A/C system alone it is working just fine.

    Dwindling Availability of Tires

    No offense but the only guys that have to worry is the 16" size. Those are hard to find. 17" sizes are plentiful. Even if your running the 255/285 setup a set should last quite a while. I highly doubt anyone is running that setup at a road course or a auto-x so its not like your buying new tires...

    40th Anniversary Friend bought a 1993 in Green insists its a 40th Anniversary

    If its not a Ruby Red 93 its not a 40th Anniversary Edition. All 93's are 40th Anniversary cars but only the Z25's (Ruby's) are the ones that got the special paint, interior, etc...setting them apart as a celebration of 40 years of Corvette.

    Shock absorbers

    What Hib suggests is very affordable and a good way to get new shocks. If you want to spend the coin a set of Koni Sports maybe the last set of shocks you ever need. I got a set on sale for about $550 shipped to my door. If you have any interest in those let me know. I'll get you his contact info.
