    Battery drain 1984 corvette

    After Market Radio May be too simple, Here is my thought. If the cut wires are behind radio. Radio is after market. Is it hooked up correctly. Does the radio come on with the key out? Maybe it is connected to constant power? I would remove the plug (Power and etc should just be one)...

    New stereo for my C4 instead of stock bose

    Depth is you issue. Unless you want to modify the dash. I suggest the Pioneer slim depth units. Sound great. Will work with IPOD, cd and have remote.

    Replacing valve covers

    Just my opinion, get good ones. I purchased some online (a no name place) and they did not have the baffels. This was a huge problem. Caused me to burn oil. Purchased some chrome from Ecklers $220 and they were perfect replacement (With baffles)

    1986 back-lit dash

    I am with everybody, Pull the LCD. However if anybody wants to do the bulb removal the way you did, use a piece of heat shrink that will fit exactly around the bulb. This will keep it from falling. And when re-inserting, this will keep you from touching the bulb.

    Front wheel bearing

    I purchased wheel bearings for 84 and they worked great. I am always concerned about quality and fit on these parts because I have been burned before. I have had great luck with MA.
