Heater core
Replacing the core of a Vette with A/C is a little harder than on a non A/C car. There is a nut or two that you have to get to from the motor side of the firewall. If you do a SEARCH you'll fine some pictures and information from others who have done it.
$380.00 for a replacement...
The bolt thru the hole is the correct way to set the spring preload and since the regulator is new those gears are OK, pull the motor and see if the gear on it is worn. That might be the problem. PG.
Good Progress!
Hi najar28, good for you, it's money well spent. You brought an old Vette back from the crusher and now you'll have something to be proud of. Look at it this way, it's only money! You could have invested twice as much in the stock market and had only half left. This way you have...

The text in 101 is good but the diagram is wrong! See the post 79 Head Lights by mwp50 for the corrected diagram at the head light and pull down connections, PG.
Pin Replacement
You can do it with the doors on, cut the top pin in half then grind the top of the new pin so it looks like a "D" then you can get it to clear the door skin.
The old bushings come out pretty easily, the new ones take a little persuading. PG.
Just to say Thank You!
Your right minifridge1138, we owe some thanks to Barry & Linda's Website and to Corvette Enthusiast Magazine, to Hib Halverson and John Z for taking the time to show all of us the correct way to work on our Vettes and to all of the rest of the members that have had the...
WOW!
To say your Vette looks "Terrific" is an understatement! Dazzling paint job, flashy wheels, fantistic ground effects. An insperation to all of us. PG.
T-Tops
You got me curious so I looked in the my original replica 1974 brochure, GM listed the coupe's as having "remove and store inside roof panels". I've either called a Vette a convertible or a T Top, most likely Vettehead Mikey is correct, when viewed with the tops off it looks like a "T"...
Fastest Vette On The planet!
johnrem46, if you have a chrome air cleaner thats cool. You don't have to have everything stock, if it makes you happy do it! If you don't like the looks of your manifold just pull it off and paint it! If you want an aluminum manifold then go for it.

Motor mounts
Hi and welcome again, Ecklers sells what are called safety mounts but you can get them from the local parts store, they keep the motor from moving to much even if the rubber breakes. The left side is a little difficult to install if you have power steering but still not that bad a...
I have a heated garage and still use stabil, try to take it out at least once a week for a 30 minute ride and get it up to normal temps. If you can't drive it at least step on the brakes a few times to keep the seals wet, then drtive it the next time the weather is good. PG.
