Here is the deal. I would check the two ground plugs behind each of the headlights for corrosion. These plugs have 6 wires and attach to the frame with one bolt. Undo the bolt and pull the male end out of the bottom of the plug. If you see green corrosion on the pins, use a wire brush and clean...

No sorry I guess I missed you.

To a friend of mine I tell ya, a friend of mine...............;)

Your welcome. I use the software alot and it is such a valuble tool. I agree a better pushrod is needed with any cam swap. Regarding heads, did you say you were using the stock heads or buying new? Good luck with your build :upthumbs

http://www.compcams.com/Camquest/default.asp Here is a free cam selection program from Comp. It comes in handy when making selections such as cams, pushrods, valvesprings, lifters etc. Looks like a Comp 7812-16 pushrod to me when I ran your selection in the program. Hib says they are...

Longtubes will give you an overall jump in power, but where the most power will be made is after visiting a dyno tuner to lean your A/F (Air Fuel ratio) back out, because the LT 's will make you run rich. Then you'll catch "horsepower fever", spend absurd amounts of money on power mods. and...

I've owned 2 pre-2000 Vettes, both 99's. 99' FRC (Hardtop) and 99' Coupe, the Coupe I still have. I would be inclined to take a look at the rear diff. for any leaks. I would also check the shifter engagement into first and into reverse if it is a manual. The seat stitching was not good these...

Here, Here :beer I second that John. I will see you in Shrewsbury anyway this year if not sooner.

I hear that. Hopefully John is listening here. Yes, I would be happy to be done also by August. I'll be running around for dyno tuning around then ;)

I hear that. Hopefully John is listening here. Yes, I

That's right, it was all my idea hehe. You know Heavy is totally into doing this and I just gave him a slight nudge, but then, the more we've discussed it, the more he gets pumped. Me too ofcourse. ;) In my opinion, it is going to be so bad azz, +425hp and I can't wait to see it with the big 4"...

Hehe, I agree. We are smart enough to find a way to get alot of power out of beer-**** if we have to. :L

Milo, I don't think yours would be as much of a problem unless you were trying to put an older size big block in. (454, 427 etc.) It can be done, but I think the steering rack has to be changed so it doesn't intrude.

Rob, I have this funny feeling that the ZR-1 name seems like an afterthought. Like the light bulb went up over someones head suddenly. Hey, what if................... We expected Blue Devil, SS, or something fresh for the name. It's great that they brought back the ZR-1 moniker using a 620hp...

It swallowed that LS7. Looks like a beautiful job they did. I wonder what the detail is on the engine mounts and transmission crossmember were. Also depending on the year C3, I believe they are different with the power steering rack between 77' and 78', 69-77 being the same and 78'-82' being the...

The Corvette will survive as Corvette does. :L

Sent you a PM.

Thanks for the kind word. Yes, not your Daddy's Chevrolet at all, but very close to a production race engine, minus the higher valve lift and some forgings. What gets better than that to drive on the street? I spent alot of time researching the subject awhile back when building my own high...

I really don't have any information on that. Maybe someone here does and will chime in.

Correction! I just received my Feb. issue of Vette magazine. On the featured procharged ZO6 build by MTI Racing, it indicates Jesel shaft mounted rockers on LS7 heads. They didn't list the part number, nor can it be found on Jesel's website, but according to this article they do exist. The only...
