    Question: Electric Exhaust Cutouts

    WOW!!!!! I guess you did increase the HP with the custom exhaust! I bet the 406 cu inch, forced induction with the bottle helps as well!!!! I think this car needs it's own thread! I want to see more! Any 1/4 mile times with this thing? It would make a Z06 cry like a baby!

    Question: Electric Exhaust Cutouts

    Nice description. Also do you see any HP gain with your exhaust and/or in your opinion is there any mesurable increase in HP with a cut-out or custom exhaust? Also, not to hi-jack the thread but I love the look of that 87. What size rears are those, 285's or are they bigger? I need to see...

    Best performance bang for the buck LT1

    I have not owned my 93 for long and have been reading up on the various performance modifications for the LT1 and now realize the choices are limited. For the money, what is the best modification that I can do to add HP? From what I see: 1.1.6 ratio rockers. 2.opening up the heads with some...

    C4's price's dropping!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dealer Vs. Private Seems like a big price spread on comparable cars if it is at a dealer or PP. Not in all cases but most. I still see C-4's for sale at dealers that were for sale last summer. There are also a fair share of "dreamers" out there with C-4's that think thier car is $20K plus...

    Another C4 Rim thread......

    Ok, I hate to beat a dead horse, but why on earth are the only rims, that I can get for a C4, that are not stock are either A) ZR-1 style rims OR B) C5 replica rims. The ZR-1 rims are ok, but if I wanted the C5 rims I would have bought a C5. ( i dont know if I could get C6 or Z06 rims, but if...

    Corvette Scam On Autotrader?

    Like several have said. Scam, and this trick has been around for awhile. I saw one of these "deals" on a 05 Honda Van, where the guy was in the military and wanted only $5K for the van. He got a deal on it since he was in the Army (yeah right) He e-mailed me telling me it was in a shipping...

    What Do GM's Troubles Mean for the Corvette?

    If they went bankrupt it would be the 11 not the 7. 11 lets them re-organize and keep operating. I bet after this "loan" they will be back for more. Let them file chap. 11. reduce GM to chevy and caddy. Fire upper mgmnt, and get rid of UAW. Stock would be worth zilch but pay the line people $20...

    C5 exhaust 01 or 02 FS

    Buddy of mine (non Vette owner) has an exhaust from either a 01 or 02 C5. He found it in the attic of his garage this fall. Anyways his neighbor said a previous owner of the house had an 01 or 02 Vette but was not sure if it was a Z06 or not (Neighbor is a car guy) I dont know much about them so...

    Question: Tire Advice

    I dont mean to hi-jack a thread but I have a related tire question. What is the widest tire you can run on a stock C-4 rim? My stock rims have 255's on the fronts and 285's on the backs. How wide can I go in the back on the stock rim? Thanks

    40th Anniversary THINKING OF SELLING ???

    Well since I own a ruby I like the way you are thinking but rare does not always mean desirable. I am also into Buick Grand Nationals and the most sought after one is the GNX and yes those fetch big, big bucks ($45-100K) however buick only made 215 Grand Nationals in 82 (yes 82) and they were...

    40th Anniversary Questions about 40th Anniv

    Thanks for all of the help. I used to think the spool of a Buick V6 Intercooled Turbo at 15# boost was sweet music but the roar from that SBC LT1 could in fact be a much better song ! and both are in my garage!:thumb:thumb:thumb I am sure at some point I will want to listen to the radio in...

    40th Anniversary Questions about 40th Anniv

    Well I bought a 40th. Felt like a good purchase but the ZR-1 style polished wheels will be comming off since the original wheels with tires are included. The polished ones dont do much for me. I did offer way less to see if they would bite but ended up in this range with the extra set of...

    LT4 LT4 w/ salvage title: Walk away or run? Or...

    Well I left it with him that I had to do some research on salvage titles and get back to him. I did so and simply informed him that I could not pay that price for a salvage title car and for what I could pay he was probably better off keeping it. He did ask "well how much does a salvage title...

    LT4 LT4 w/ salvage title: Walk away or run? Or...

    Thanks for all the help. Looked at the car again today (owner was there and we test drove) It is a true LT4, his story checks out regarding the car was re-built in 97 since that is when he bought it and the miles checked out to what he indicated at 11k when he purchased the car. Anyways it is...
