    Can't get oil pan back on

    What's up Junk!?! It's all dented up from years of abuse by previous owners... then the oil plug nut stripped out, so she had to come off anyway. Instead of repairing, I opted to replace... Silly me! <--------------- MORON. :chuckle

    Can't get oil pan back on

    There's nothing wrong with the pickup... the old pan goes right back on the way it should. After careful measurements, I found that the new pan's baffle (the welded in one with the trap door) is 1/4 higher in the pan than that of the old pan. Corvette Central's response was we've sold 5...

    Can't get oil pan back on

    everything appears to be identical. -I didn't change the baffle, but I think I will swap it out, as the pan came with a new one. -I don't think the oil pump pickup moved at all... in order to get the pickup to slide in the opening in the deep part of the pan, we have to move the pan over...

    Can't get oil pan back on

    I started my oil pan swap out on the LS4... bought a new pan from Corvette Central. Everything looks identical, but when we try to install the new one... the pan will not clear the oil pump and pickup. It's strange since the old pan came off so easily. Anyone with ideas? Thanks!

    1994 - shakes when I reach 68-74 MPH

    You could also have a broken belt in a tire... but this should cause a vibration at all speeds, and get worse as you go faster. Just another thought.

    1994 - shakes when I reach 68-74 MPH

    Drive shaft threw a weight? Could be unbalanced and at that speed and RPM, it is setting up a reverberation.

    Very disappointed in MAD

    I've had bad luck with MAD too. I even had correspondence with Mike Jr. here on CAC, and he dropped the ball too. I no longer shop there unless absolutely needed.

    Possible Survivor Found ... 1969

    So I was in Miami for Thanksgiving, and I spend some time with my old College roomate while down there. Turns out he has a relative with a white 1969 Coupe that hasn't been driven in 18 years, and is the original owner!! I'm working on getting more details. Obviously the motor will need...

    There is only 1 place I would go... he rebuilds for most of the big resellers out there: http://www.vtechcorvette.com/ I had mine done by Gary... I actually went out to his house/shop and dropped off the parts myself. Turned eveything around in a week for me... including my diff. Dave

    Sad sight

    Bring cash. Money Talks and BS walks. If they are in financial trouble, a little green under the nose goes a long way.
