I plan to put 17x9.5 rims with 275/40x17 tires for the front and 17x11 rims and 315/35x17s on the rear. the rims are repro zr1s with the correct backspacing for the 84 to 87 Vette from Custom wheels Market and was wondering if anyone out there did the same or similar upgrade?

Found Ken's coolant fan troubleshooting post but wonder if this would apply to an 84. It's my understanding that the 84 fans are controlled differently the later years. Thanks Lowell

While putting in new at fulid in my overdrive I found the od was overfilled and when I checked the trans it was low. Just wondering if there is a gasket or seal between them and how much of a job it is to replace. Both the trans and OD work fine. Thanks Lowell 84 with the Z51 kg.
