    LS7 Rocker Arm Failures

    This reminds me of the valvespring failures on the 06's, but rest assured this is not your average valvetrain. This is just as good as any aftermarket valvetrain from Crane or COMP, comparable in specifications anyway. The problem is it has to be treated with velvet gloves until the oil...

    Push button start fails sometimes

    There is so much electronic garbage associated with starting the car, parking the car, getting out of the car. An engineering nightmare between the lawyers and the engineers to make any possible lawsuits avoidable, creating a pain in the azz problem if something in the system actually breaks...

    C6 clutch question

    Use DOT 4 if that's what the manual suggests. The rest, I would trust in whatever c4c5 recommends.

    LS7 Rocker Arm Failures

    I don't plan on using the stock LS7 rocker, although I'm having a hard time trying to find a ones made specifically for the LS7 heads. Katech would be a fine place to start to find out what they have been doing for their "valvetrain enhancements." These guys are spinning 8000rpm. Jesel doesn't...

    Tire Chains for a C6

    :L Nothing has changed between the C3 to the C5 when it comes to snow I see. I don't blame you for wishing you kept that. My favorite Vette 70-71' for sure. Must have been those chrome bumpers. ;) I was 8 years old and knew someday....... Fast forward 37 years later Vette #4.

    C5R Replica in England

    I think it looks great. A nice tribute to the intimadator. Have to put the shades on while driving that car for sure. :upthumbs

    Tire Chains for a C6

    I'd like to try some 3" tire spikes and take her ice fishing. Damn snowmobiles would be riding too close to my azz end, I'd have to punch it and get some distance in the rearview. Like was said, never a bad question to be asked here. I imagine the handling on pavement would be pretty scary. I...

    C6 clutch question

    My clutch used to do that after a few hot shifts. I'd take it to the dealer, or syphon off fluid from the clutch fluid reservoir and replace with new DOT 3 brake fluid a few times after driving. You will get a whole fluid exchange in short order.

    Time to upgrade that old C5

    I usually end up doing it for cost for fellow Vette owners as a service to the brotherhood. ;) The current tune should be fine I would imagine, if anything, you may have to add alittle fuel back in.

    Ported Intake Manifold

    The only manifold porting I've done was for port matching on a FAST 90. If you are running an LS2/7 throttlebody, there is a big improvement that can be made there also.

    1994 Polo Green w/Tan Leather

    I agree with Tom about waiting for the right buyer. From the way it sounds, you can't ask for a better example of a 94' either. I did also check the Kelly Blue Book on it and it said, $12k on a private party sale. I think that is way too low for what someone would be getting in return, no doubt...

    How much more HP?

    I can put another 100hp on any LS series Vette for around $2500.00. A cam, new valvesprings, pushrods and longtube headers. If you want to get well over 500hp you can't do it without new heads. Heads are cheap if you buy them bare then rework them. Doing the work myself ofcourse for all above is...

    Time to upgrade that old C5

    I had the same throttlebody on my Z with the FAST 90 intake. I ported mine because if you look at it dead on, the butterfly valve is definitely shrouded. You can eliminate alot of material at the base of the inlet. I couldn't believe I could actually feel the difference. I've become quite good...

    1994 Polo Green w/Tan Leather

    Without the selective ride package option ZO7, you are looking at a maximum of $15K, but you may be able to squeek a few more dollars out seeing the mileage is abnormally low. $16K very top dollar.

    Time to upgrade that old C5

    What are you running for a throttlebody? That intake sound nice I'll look into it for sure.

    The z51 you are talking about correct??

    Time to upgrade that old C5

    Holy ****! Wow that engine looks sweet!! The tuning looks balls on too. Let us know how you make out with the new mods. I'll be hoping to hear over 500rwhp because I know how being that close is and I know you want to cross that threshold or am I wrong? hehe ;)

    1994 Polo Green w/Tan Leather

    I had the same exact car and it was definitely reliable. I never had a problem with it except for replacing the starter once. For what the car is worth, there is nothing significant about the year regarding Vette history, but as clean and low mileage as it is, it depends on a few things. Is the...
