    Clutch/Tranny HELP! thanks in advance.

    I had a problem kinda like this on my 85L. Beneath the carpet on the drivers side (We're talking beside the shifter) Is a VERY large bolt. Now this thing tends to loosen off and and some cases (Me) fall out. This bolt holds the entire linkage together as you shift within the gate. Hey try it...

    =Jeff= Help! My car runs terrible!

    Hmm... Well here's my thought. If someone can tell me where this cold start injector is/ what it looks like (I heard its more of a BS valve) I'll disable it/disconnect (Heard we can do that to) If its an injector problem screw it...Im actually going to change over to a miniram soon enough...

    Flooding

    Out on a limb but we're dealing with a car with a similar problem. We fixed it by replacing the fuel pump and the fuel pump relay. We did them both at the same time due to wacky diagonstics but it did clear up. When your injectors ARE opening up from the message from the ECM the amount of fuel...

    =Jeff= Help! My car runs terrible!

    Sorry for the delay. Ok there was no codes at all (which bugged me I was hoping for something easy) The car has been doing this for a long time but now that Im driving the car more I'd like to fix it. I had the entire upper intake redone, however everything is plugged in and there is no...

    =Jeff= Help! My car runs terrible!

    Not just aiming at Jeff but I know that hes really good with this kind of thing. My car runs like crap on cold startup (Ive mentioned this problem before and had little response) As soon as my digital dash reads off LO on my oil temp and reaches a number (60 something) I run just fine. Now I...

    Steering wheels

    I had a Momo then switched to a Grant Mirage with leather molded hand wraps. (Bout 500$) You can basicly use any wheel you want! Both Momo and Grant have the adapter kits for the Corvette with telescope steering and without. I chose the Momo adapter/hub because its cast alumimun not punched...

    Caked on brake dust

    Try Brake or Carb cleaners as well. It really blasts the stuff off. Just wipe is off with a metal polish afterwards. as not to potentially hurt the finish.

    the best spark plugs for a C4

    I run the +4's as well. On my other cars I just used regular BP's. I did get a good increase in gas mileage and acceleration from the NGK's and AC Delco's I had in there before. I also run MSD 8,5's and a MSD 6AL Box.

    Corvette Concept Cars

    Well the site looked interesting enough to bad I couldn't take a closer look because of the FORIEGN software being installed on my computer due to insane pop-ups. Normally Id freak out but it seems like Im the only one....So beware of that link.

    Climate Control

    PHOOEY! I was cleaning the car and while moving the heat/cold selector side to side I think a lever or rod broke or undid itself......Hmm Now Ive had this unit nearly out before and the reason I couldn't remove it was because of a red wire that seemed to be soldered into what I thought was the...

    Cancelation of Corvette

    Do you guys think the engineers at GM should take a partnership with someone like Callaway or Lingenfelter to aid the design as well as power of the newer cars? I think from the "spy" shots that the design team seems to be running out of ideas! Look at the Body kits from Lingenfelter or the...
