    LT4 Stock LT4 exhaust manifolds and throttle body

    Are the factory LT4 exhaust manifolds the same as the LT1 manifolds? The reason I am asking is because my LT4 has shorty headers on it, I might want to return it to bone stock someday. I will need an original set of exhaust manifolds to do that. Same question about the throttle body. I have a...

    Low Tire Pressure Sensors

    Dont get so excited yet. It aint over. It takes 20 miles of driving at speed before the sensors will output a signal to the computer. There are several things that have to happen before the computer will show a fault with the pressure. You have to be at speed for a length of time, the sensor has...

    rear lettering options

    I put these on this summer. They came from Mid America. The car never see's bad weather so I cant really say they would hold up to it. They were not cut to fit the letter opening exactly.

    Window Sweep R&R

    By window sweep I take it you mean the outer door sill. I changed these on the 88 I used to have. If the 91 is similar you will most definately have to remove the door panel. The factory sill is riveted in if I remember correctly. You will have to drill out the rivets. The aftermarket sill's...

    Just Got mine

    It depends on how far you have to go? I would not drive it to the next state but across town should not hurt anything. Keep the speed down and baby it there, it should be okay. As far as additional tracking and ruining the opti goes. it's dead already isnt it? If you have to go for the opti...

    ZF fluid change Redline MTL vs castrol vs GM.... I am confused

    I have done a little research through the archives on which fluid to use. I now know more about it than I wanted to know, and am more confused than when I started! I guess there are three choices: The GM recommended fluid. The Castrol 10W60. Is this actually engine oil? Redline MTL. I...

    Low Tire Pressure Sensors

    You guessed it. They are inside the tires, strapped around the wheel. You have a few things to consider. The sensors can be damaged removing the tire from the wheel to get them out. (experience speaking) If you install the sensor in a non run flat tire that goes flat. Squashed sensor and tore up...

    LT4 How many CE LT4s were built

    I intend to hold this car for a long time. We wanted a convertible so this was the only logical option. Zr1's are very cool, Z06 the same but neither come in convertible. So the LT4 was the best choice. I think we got kinda lucky finding a fully optioned car like we did. It was 1000 mile trip to...

    LT4 How many CE LT4s were built

    I got my 96 CE this summer. One of 68 LT4 convertible CE's with red interior. Mine came from the factory with every available option. It even has a spare tire. No delete. I have not been able to find out how many CE's were built with every option like mine. Or even how many CE's came with the...

    Time to Sell My 89? What's it worth?

    I sold my 88 vert this summer for $14000. It had 48000 on it, manual trans. It was an ultra clean show car. If it is not ultra clean everywhere like engine compartment, interior, underside, etc you wont get that kind of money. Condition dictates price. You can find them them for $10,000 or less...

    Battery Tenders

    I have three of them right now. One on the Vette, one on the Charger, and one on the Yamaha. Like the saying goes "dont leave home without it". I have the smaller $19.95 ones on the Vette and bike. The Charger has the bigger more expensive one. I really dont know why you would need the bigger...

    Zaino--good as they claim?

    I switched to Zaino a couple of years ago because of all the hype it got in the forum's. I have used many products but none have performed like Zaino has. I have not tried NXT. It may be just as good or better than Zaino I dont know. I like the ease that Zaino goes on and comes off. Last year...

    Lifting the Vette

    I always use a block of wood on top of the jack. It halps spread the load and protect from scratching the frame rail.

    Are Tire Plugs Safe?

    This statement is true. I read somewhere, maybe on the Goodyear website, that once a Z rated or higher tire is punctured it is no longer usable. Repair is not recomended. I believe this has to do with damaging the belts. Once the belts are broken the tire structure is no longer stable. So a...

    Clutch replacement

    Mine only has 22000 on it and my clutch is toast. I bought the car this fall. It was mostly lady driven, original run flats with even wear, I assume she was riding the clutch. The flywheel is the most expensive part. $1400 at the dealer. The rest is normal pricing. Clutch kit runs around $350. I...

    My clutch is smoking, stinks, and it just started slipping. The car has 22k on it. It was mostly lady driven from 9k to 20k miles. I just got the car with 20k on it. It is a 96 LT4. I am going to replace the clutch myself. I am a pretty good wrench if I am changing like kind parts. I want to...
