    Borgeson Install frame flex

    Hey Hib, Thanks for the reply. The frame crack has been bugging me since I bought the car. I need to get this welded asap. Thanks for the advice on the belt. I will check to see if its tight enough. I did inspect QUITE a bit for binding, and it looks right. I need to replace a bunch of...

    Borgeson Install frame flex

    Just installed my Borgeson steering kit this weekend. Really nice improvement. I will post about my install experience later, but wanted to ask about some concerns I see right now. 1) I'm seeing a lot of flex in my chassis when tuning through the full range of left to right. In fact, i see it...

    1981 Corvette Auto to Manual Transmission Clutch Pedal Swap

    Thanks Peter. That connector was not hooked up before I did the pedal swap. I havent got around to researching what is was or how important it was. Wonder if this is contributing to my 10-11 mpg problem that got me thinking about this swap in the first place! :confused

    1981 Converting my auto to a manual transmission...Clutch Pedal??

    Well...planning on starting the pedal replacement this weekend. I am REALLY hoping someone can chime in that has done this already with an 80-82, an can tell me for certain if these pedals will be ok or not before I tear it apart. Would really suck to do it twice. :) Here are the pics of the...

    Clutch Pedal Assembly

    Sorry if this is a duplicate, but I wasnt sure if the L81 forum and this are the same. I am trying to find out if anyone has used a 68-79 clutch pedal assembly for a 1981 (or 80-82) vette. I am starting to compile parts for an auto to manual conversion, I want to make sure the pedal assembly I...

    1981 Converting my auto to a manual transmission...Clutch Pedal??

    Wow! I didnt realize there was a whole forum dedicated to the 81. Thats is amazing. I bought an 81 about 6 months ago. Been doing odds and ends work ever since I got it, but decided to do a major change...at least major for me. I really want a manual trans. So this past weekend I started...
