    Leaky Head Gaskets - Check this out!

    I Do I'm not a metalurgest (sp?) but I do know there are times when aluminum and steel are not compatable, this may be one of them unfortunately for you.

    63 Coupe Project - Update

    I Have To Ask............... I know I asked you this once before when you had the 62 inside at Carlisle and we first met but, are you & Barb SURE you can't adopt me? Far aside from the end results of your cars, you are two of the finest people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Congrat's on...

    Question: Spark plug change

    A Thought......... Snap On tools makes a socket for the tough to get to plug. It's advertised as a "Muscle Car" plug socket made for cars with headers. It's a short socket with the center drilled out so the tip protrudes and it has a 5/8 6 point on the end for an open ratchet or a wrench. It's...

    Considering a DeWhitt radiator.

    Aluminum........ Brand name aftermarket, Be Cool, Dewitt, etc. will all make a big difference. Do your homework, some have direct replacements, no fuss, no muss. Remove the old, drop in the new. I have a bored high compression 327 in my 62 and nothing made the difference like the aluminum Be...

    Good Laugh...

    Question Is......... What caused the "fuse" to blow? Is there something else wrong that will cause it to go again? NOT wishing you anything but good trouble free driving, keep an eye on it.;)

    Car Trailer

    Not Cheap You need a trailer with a drivers side door so when you open the door on the vette you have room to get out. You may also have to install wide boards on the floor where the rear tires will sit or the door won't clear the wheel well. There's a number of manufacturers that make them, do...

    crate engine question

    One Of Many I'm not promoting them, I have nothing to gain but merely adding one for you to look in to. Good luck and let us know what you decide, maybe one of the buyers from them will see this and respond.

    crate engine question

    You're Welcome If I were buying a crate engine, I'd pay them a visit, they're only about an hour from me. I like a lot of things they do, very informative, take lots of pictures and a video of your engine being built. They run your engine and when you install it, all it needs is gas. I know of...

    Winching a Z06

    No Door.... On the drivers side of the trailer I presume? That makes it real tight, you can get around the height issue but the side clearance is a tough one, that's one reason I bought the trailer I have now among a lot of others. It can definately be done, it just takes longer. ;) Don't...

    Winching a Z06

    Not Sure But............ Get a short 10,000 lb. nylon tow strap and hook that to your winch cable using the hook ends of the strap to hook on something underneath. On the newer vettes, you have a very low stance with the spoiler. You want to find a spot secure that not only won't damage what...

    Not New but here's an example of the fun we have.

    Nice......... Great show Tom, brings back some fantastic memories (and memory loss). I'm looking forward to 08, I haven't missed one yet. I guess my family was feeling a little sorry for me with the getting lost in Colorado looking for a room and diesel the night before, Colorado Springs and...

    2 inch versus 2 1/2 exhaust

    Souds Good There used to be a cruise at Paddocks (Auto Parts) on 206, went a few times years ago. Give me a hollar if the salt ever washes off the roads, we'll swap lies:beer

    2 inch versus 2 1/2 exhaust

    How Did You............. Sneak in here? Another Joisey Boy eh? Welcome, you are probably not too far from me. I'm not sure of the size of the manifolds on a big block but you say you have a reducer on the exhaust below them? My theory has always been the bigger the better with an exhaust but...
