    Help! Tire ratings

    The data contained in the CAC website is incredible. Hope this helps, you should be able to find the speed rating and load index from this info. Don't know if you had the standard or optional tires, think it depends on which suspension you have. This is from the tech center link at the top of...

    Help! 1990 corvette runs terrible, slow as 1960 vw, mayhbe not quite.

    His description of how it runs/acts sounds just like when my pre-cats plugged up on my 89. New "off road" y pipe and all was good. Just a thought...

    NCRS Indiana Regional At Auburn

    Probably a silly question but what are the main things you look for when judging 40/45 year old cars? I've seen some restorations that look better than when they rolled off the assembly line. Can you "over" restore a vehicle? I'm not too far from the Gilmore Car Museum (90 acres and over 300...

    Question: smog/air pump eliminator

    I would assume that a 30 year old car would be exempt from emissions testing but there are a few counties that still test. Is Waco in an exempt county?

    LT4 C4/lt4 Tires

    Not sure if they will fit your year but I've had very good results with BF Goodrich g-force kdw tires. Good traction, quiet and they seemed to wear well for me. I got about 30,000 miles out of a set. And what I liked best was the price. Yes, I drove mine in the rain and even light snow. Why buy...

    New member and just bought my first Corvette, a 1987.

    Welcome to the best Corvette online forum. And, putting over 70,000 miles on my Bright Red 89 Convertible, I never got a ticket.

    Video: MotorWeek | Retro Review 1986 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible

    Not that I'm biased, but,,,, still think that the mid to late 80's Corvette convertible is the best looking design, especially when it is Bright Red!

    Question: Any Portable Generator Recommendations

    if you go the generator route, pay close attention to the line in Hib's post, "HD" extension cord. Buy a good cord rated for outside use. Don't buy cheap cords. Minimum 12 ga three conductor. And depending on what you plan on powering, remember the longer the cord, the more voltage drop there...

    Question: Any Portable Generator Recommendations

    It sorta depends on just how much you want or need to power. Just a sump pump or do you need to power lights and a refrigerator, too. For years, I used a Honda EU2000I to power just a few things during power outages. I'd set it outside near a window, snake a couple of extension cords in and...

    Question: Those wimpy 12 inch front brakes!

    Hmmmm, I've had to lock up the brakes on my completely stock 89 and the abs came on and worked fine.

    Tesla Energy announcement

    I've had more power outages (thank-you Consumers) in the two years I've been back in Michigan than I ever had in 38 years in Colorado, and I was on an REA out in the middle of nowhere. Longest here being almost two weeks. Never lost the natural gas in any of our Michigan outages. I powered the...

    Beware of Corvette Mods LLC in Fort Worth Texas

    You do know that English is not Peer81's native language. Sometimes American English is hard to follow. And, I bet his English is a lot better than my Dutch:chuckle
