Hi johnnyclassic Hi, I'am glad that I'am your first post. Yes I, we all heard of Big Daddy Don Garlits. also I also own a Blue grand sport rag top.:rotfl

What are the differences between the 2010 and 2011 Grand Sport convertibles? anyone:confused

Back in the late 1960's and 1970 the crysler 426 hemi was factory rated at 425 horsepower when in reality it produced over 650 h.p. The chevy 454 ( LS-7) over the counter was factory rated at 465 H.P. again in reality it produced 600 +H.P. Don't forget the ford boss 429 motor ( the highest)...

Horsepower T.V. didn't say anything about any baseline. They simply took an over the counter LS3 crate motor, used camaro exhaust manifolds, dyno'd the motor and came up with the said horsepower at the flywheel.

Insurance? I know you have insurance. Right. But I did not hear the word REWARD.If so How much...

Horsepower TV show, a few weeks ago bought an over the counter corvette LS3 engine, changed only the exhaust manifolds to camaro manifolds dyno'd the engine and got 495 h.p. out of the other wise bone stock motor. ( no dry sump ). Question: Would the power of been the same or more if it were...

Pros / cons of use of nitrogen in run flat c6 tires. Do they sell a nitrogen compressor? Or is it a storage tank that gets filled when needed.

It seems that if I do not start the car for about 6 weeks or so the battery doesn't crank the engine. I get click, click, click. I jump start the car with another battery, and it starts right up. Question: When hooking up a battery tender/ battery charger for...

Answers Reason for battery in the trunk is 2 fold. 1- better weight distribution, closer to 50/50. 2-Less trouble in getting to battery in case of a dead battery. You only need your key. Besides Chevy said the Grand Sport period. Why are the dry sump so problematic? What does the engine starve...

QUOTE=XLR8;1038801]JYJ... you sound like a man in need of a sympathetic ear. :L Are you having issues with your new GS? Or are you simply concerned about common issues with the C6 in general? Give us more information and we'll help you work through it. :thumb :wJane Ann Let me see am I...

Competition? How many new vettes and I mean how many new coupes are bought with the intention of going to any kind of actual competition. I'll bet that 99% of any competition will be from one traffic lite to another. With an occasional trip to a drag strip. Chevy of all people should know...

I am keeping my Grand Sport in the garage for a couple of months at a time, driving it every now and then. Question, I plan on using a battery tender when not using the vette. Comments anyone.

Thank God, the the 2011 grand sport convertibles are as forgotten as the 2010 as far as dry sump, trunk battery, etc. etc. And yes misery does love company.

Oil Starvation? Does it really matter the car and the engine is under warranty.

Does it need this? Does this mean the grand sport convertible is a better built vette that it does not need the dry sump?

68 vettes came with 7 in. rims. Will the 69 8 in. rims work? Also will radial tires in that size improve the handling of the car? Any thoughts?

1968 was the only year they did not use the sting ray emblem? I am told by someone that the 1969 corvette started reusing the sting ray emblem but they wrote it as stingray. Ok but did any one know that they started reusing the emblem mid year 1968. Comments?

Why is the LS 3 built at one location by one guy, and the other LS 3 built at another location by a group of people for the same vette? Why is the battery located in the trunk of some but not in all? Why is there dry sump in the hardtop, and not the convertible? Is the hardtop...

2010 grand sport convert. Step child? I am told by my chevy dealer that my engine was built at a plant where all other LS 3's were built. No dry sump, engine built by a group of people, what other thing will turn up next? Is it true, is the convertible grand sport the step child corvette?

O k everything being equal A CONVERTIBLE Grand Sport vs a G.S. HARDTOP Both 6 speed same everything else, 1 with dry sump, 1 with out. Both LS3 motors, which does what? According to chevy they run the same. do they?
