I put Nitto NT555 on the 1993 at the start of summer in the factory sizes...really sticky rubber. This last month I noticed the 1994 had some pretty bad weather checking on the BF Goodrich tires so I also replaced them with Nitto's 275/40 17 on the front and 285/40 17 in the rear. Slightly...

On my 73 I figured while it was apart I would update the Heater Core, Fan, all the seals.....The Assembly Manuel has been a great help to the guys doing the work. Karsten

I would mix up some JB Weld in a Altoids Tin...heat it with a hair drier slightly and it will turn to a self leveling liquid. Apply to the crack to fill and let it harden then sand or file if needed. Karsten

Issues fixed and it runs.......does it ever run....sound more like a quarter mile car than a driver. Summit Patriot Ceramic Coated Short Tube Header, Reduced Gear Mini Starter Karsten

Rebuilt brakes, New 375 HP 350 going in. Toying with fuel lines..for Quick Fuel 680. Then the throttle linkage needed some work. 1st set of long Tube Header just didn't have any ground clearance. Karsten

I ordered a complete interior, seat cushions, covers, dash cap, door panels, carpet, A Pillars, T-Top head liners and the list goes on. I ordered it all from Ecklers and took advantage of 15-20 off codes they sent out monthly. Most everything came from Corvette America. Karsten

I was surprised to find out I have no Mufflers on my 1994. Previous owner had replaced the pipes from the Cat's back with a dimpled 2.75 inch pipe, Muffler replacement pipe......Sounds great and it is not that load. I replaced the dual round tips with flat rectangle chrome tips that fit the rear...

I install off road dual outlet mufflers on my 1973 350 with who knows what replacement motor it had. Upgraded to 2.5 inch pipes and it sounded great. But the 350 I found out was a truck motor and just didn't run anything like I had expected. This weekend we dropped in a 375 HP 350, headers and...

I bought two of them and have been working on Polishing them up. I also bought smooth Intake tubes to clean up the air flow......I don't know it they work or not but clean air in should make a difference. Karsten
