1.8 qts. And it's the same for the D36 and the D44.

Pick up a Felpro front cover set and even if you don't use the gasket, it's still cheaper than buying individual seals. Top quality, no worries there. Autozone even carries Felpro and some other retailers do too. Should only be around $20 or so.

The only transmission mount on these is the C-beam, which supports it at the rear. Other than that, you'll just need to find a transmission and the other necessary parts from a manual '84-'88 Corvette. However, if you want to use the '89 and up 6-speed, some other adaptation is required and I...

Hey, someone needs to keep things going around this dead-assed place.....

These cars are "notorious" :D for tachometer inaccuracy but yours is a bit much. Around 300 RPM or so in excess of reality seems to be the norm. How did you verify this?

Very accurate assessment but still bordering on understatement. :L Handling, like anything else that enhances performance is a series of compromises. Your basic goals are first individual corner weights and managing them during the dynamics that occur when thrashing a car around various types of...

I took my control unit completely apart quite sometime ago and cleaned everything. Never a problem since. Note the location of all buttons before removing them.

Are you kidding? This is not rocket science. All he's asking for is for a separate button to activate the starter. Power to a momentary switch and a wire from that switch to the small (trigger) terminal on the starter's solenoid. Done. This will not interfere with security or the normal power-on...

Mine used to perform much like yours, it worked when it was in the mood. I removed the control panel, disassembled it completely, cleaned everything and reassembled it. It's been a good three years since and I've never had another problem out of it. Oh, and take note of the locations of the...

All you need is a momentary switch of sufficient capacity. I've got one hooked up under my hood that comes in handy when running through the valves and such.

You say you want the LT1 for better economy. Then you say you want to put a conventional distributor and a carb on it. So first, make up your mind.....

I too would do everything else (and have) before stiffening the springs. My spring change will be to coil-overs for a number of reasons. But necessarily having them stiffer is not among them, nor is optimizing the car for auto-X for that matter. But anyhow, if you're like me and most other...

Check and see how many lawsuits there have been related to Dexcool and resulting damage. Even among extended life coolants, which I consider problematic anyways, it's probably the worst. I have extensive experience with seeing the results of long term coolant use of all types, as well as inside...

Your dealership = BOHICA! (Bend Over, Here It Comes Again) If their Vette mechanic's the best in the state, I'd hate to see the worst. They sure don't have a problem throwing your money at a problem, do they? Plugs, coil, coil module, carbon tracking and the list goes on and on. After checking...

My OEM replacement has not quite 30K miles on it so far. So hopefully it'll be awhile yet. But when it eventually needs replacement, at this point my choice would be the MSD unit too. From all I've read about it's design, such as heavier bearings for longer life and more high RPM stability as...

There are two hoses on the vented optis. One is a "breather" that is sourced from the accordian hose on the air intake. There's also a vacuum hose that runs to a fitting at the front of the intake manifold. Compyelc4, I'm unclear on something. Is it your car or just the water pump that has just...

$200 for a cap and rotor? Is that OEM full dealership price? Even the MSD OEM replacements aren't anywhere near that much. If you're concerned, I'd look underneath it and then make your decision. I guess if anyone's allowed to hijack a thread, it should be the OP. :L My stroker parts are hand...

It sounds as if you have a dead cell. Your battery should show at least a true 12.6 volts~ after it's been sitting awhile. If you've just shut it off, turn the lights on for about a minute to remove the surface charge. It should then show in the neighborhood of around 12.6 v. I've not seen or...

That would be the one also talking on her cell phone and applying her make-up, right? :ohnoes :L

Many, but in the most practical sense, any '85 through '91 C4 L98 is a drop in. You may have to swap around a few minor components to stay compatible with the '85 ECM but that's about it.
