No Drain plug exist for the rear end. A few of the members here have installed a drain plug and it seems to work fine. However the procedure does involve a drill and a tap set. I recall one really good picture and write up that was done. I just sucked mine out with a 12 dollar pump from the...

" The Edelbrock AFB "clone" is a poor choice because of it's float chamber design is not good on cars which get driven hard under braking. That's one reason GM discontinued using AFBs on Corvette in the mid-60s." I just had to jump in here .... I had an Edelbrock performer carb on a...

i've been reading this thread since it started and wanted make one point I think it depends on how you define the word "power" are we talking horse power ? or torque in this thread?

I have a 1995 convertible. I bought the ragtop for a few reasons 1. I am 6' 5'' and about 230 pounds, me head hits on the hardtop. Headroom is unlimited with the top down. 2. Open air motoring really makes the trip more memorable to me. 3. Convertibles are easier to sell and retain a...

What he said ... Basically C-4's are a good bang for the buck in performance. However, even a very good one ( low or zero miles, plastic covers still on the seats, original tires etc.) goes for less than when it was purchased new. Check out the auction prices at Barret Jackson for proof on...

The reciever your talking about is an aluminium case with heat sinks on it. If I recall it is velcro'd to the ..... right side of the comapartment. Dont yank it out.Gently remove it. many wires are attached and the connectors are fragile I would check those connectors for issues...

Beer and exhaust tips it was. Still waiting on the tips in the mail though. Claybar is too much like real work ! By the time I was finished on Saturday night I couldnt even hold a beer. No wonder people get paid well to do that. :beer

A man has to have his priorities, Im thinking LT-1 tips and claybar so far ... I will make my buddies bring the beer. :beer

So far I have 1. Maintenance. (I've replaced and flushed every fluid including rinsing out the windshield washer reservoir... yeah I'm that guy) :rotfl 2. Drink beer..... The Vette still looks the same; well it IS shinier after I drink a few beers. Any others? :beer

I have come to discover that I will be at home this weekend ALONE. No kids or wife to interupt my Vette time in the driveway ! WOO HOO ! 2 full days of washing waxing and nice 70 degree weather :chuckle:chuckle:chuckle Now for the serious stuff, I have about 100 dollars (yeah I'm rich !)...

whats your opinion of the ZEX dry nitrous kit you have ? Works well ? No issues ? ANd your LT-1 sound great !

The seat is held in with 4 bolts. If the seat wont move you may be able to get to it with a gear wrench. Also, try to sit in a push back with your feet and move the seat back at the same time. See if that helps. You may have stripped gears in the seat track. If so its about 150 to 200 bucks...

The feel of the 6 speed is far better than the 4+3. The 6 speed has shorter gear throws and a much more precise gear selection mechanism. If you have ever driven an older GM small block 4 speed car, then you have a good idea of what the 4+3 feels like. The 4+3 is tolerable anda useable...

I realized this strange automotive math at the age of about 25. I poured every cent I made into a '66 Mustang HiPo for 6 years. The end result was about 17k less in my pocket. However I was the proud owner of a $10k Mustang. If I counted the hours spent it would be well into the stratosphere...

You could dump that car for 9k or hold out for around 12 k. As the price goes up the car stays longer. Thats just my opinion. A good average price is about 10-12 k depending on options and condition. I browse vette adds every day and have been for at least 10 to 15 years. Its a bad habit I...

I think you have a fuel pressure leak down issue. Check pressure at the schrader valve on the fuel rail.

From like 1967 to 1981 the small block F body had a T-10 or a super T-10, I think. (except for the 302 Z28 and Lt-1 Z28 which had a Muncie) Been a while but I've owned six F bodies '67, '70, '74, '75 , '93 and '96 Same trans as the Vette without the OD. If your 4+3 is working great now I...

then again, it does look cool. Like an early Camaro SS hood sort of or like the fenders on an old 1960's can am racer. You have a set of steel b**s to cut holes in your vette ! O the horror the humanity .... :ohnoes :D lets see some post op pics ! :thumb
