I found it! http://www.artscorvetteparts.com/part_detail.aspx?item_guid=e17db7fc-78e2-4e90-9465-3104b0f280ee&qty=1

That's what I thought. The picture I saw at the parts site looked like it only had one duct. This is the link: http://www.artscorvetteparts.com/part_detail.aspx?item_guid=d144902f-9006-4d11-8deb-cee744d2a8e4 On second blush. maybe it does have two ducts on it. Didn't look that way at first.

So there is no air duct for the 78 L48?

When I got my 78, it had a 'flexi-tube' going from the air cleaner to the front. It seems like it should go to an air duct. There is no air duct (there are mounting holes though) and I just removed the tube. I was at a Corvette site this morning and saw one for sale. However, it said it was for...

I need the part that attaches to the radiator (and the bolts). I can find the "tube" in the catalogues but not the air funnel itself.

Yesterday I took the Vette out for a drive in the country. Had a lovely drive for hours. No problems. This morning, when I satrt it up to go to work, the wipers came on. I only got them to stop by turning it off. I started again and headed for work. Long story short...I had to stop 3 times and...

Well, I bought the one-piece unit. I have had it for about a month now. I think I have used it enough to voice my opinion. Pros: It is cheaper than the alternative. It is much lighter than the orignal T-Tops. It was pretty easy to install. For the most part it fit well. Cons: It squeeks a...

When I got mine, it did the same thing. The Reverse Lockout tab was broken off the shifter. I took the shifter out and, along with the tab, went to a machinist buddy of mine. He brazed the tab back on. I put it back together. Haven't had a problem since. I couldn't find a shifter anyware. That...

I had a similar problem in my 78. The short was in the wiring in the center console. I was working on the shifter. I noticed a connection that was not connected. Everytime I connected it and applied power, the fuse blew. I think it was for the alarm system. I don't know. I just left it...

Seems like you either love em or hate em. Even the ones at $875 (from Australia?) are out of my budget range right now.

I'm trying to sell my 78. I have been telling everyone that the cracked tops don't leak. For the last week it has been setting in the driveway with a cover on it. I took the cover off last night ad discovered that the passenger side did leak! The carpet was wet. I am drying it now. So Ineed to...

Which way do you feel is the better: going with the 1-piece or the 2-piece(s)?

Has anyone had any experience with the products from Astro Top? They offer a one-piece top that spans the whole area (~$359), or replacement 2-piece units (~$500)that act like the OEM tops. I was thinking about the one-piece unit, if for no other reason than it would eliminate one potential leak...

I feel your pain, bro. I have a 78. I tried to sell it on EBAY. The closest bid was $3,000 less than I wanted. Maybe it was because there were a gazillion 78's for sale at the time. In the meantime I purchased a 64 Galaxie 500 XL (390). I will give it one more try. I plan to park the Vette in...

I bought another toy and have been informed that the 78 has got to go. It has 68,000 miles. It suffers from the usual maldies for a78...mirror tops cracked (no leaks), A/C not charged (or converted). Had new seats put in it a year ago. New brakes. New brake lines in the rear. New u-joints and...

Put in some 87. If you don't get any pinging, you're golden. I had to run Clark 104 back in my GTO days, but it has 11.5:1 compression. My '78 ain't anywhere near that...

I didn't go to AutoZone, but I did buy mine from Motor Parts Exchange (MPE), another car parts chain.

Yowzer!!!:ugh

Can Corvettes use a Line Lock (Staging control) for drag racing? Can anyone recommend a good brand for a 78?
