I posted this little exercise to illustrate the importance of the additive package used in oils...regardless of basestock origin. The answer is.... The pistons on the left were run with SYNTHETIC oil. The pistons on the right were run with "dino" oil. Through the use of a Rockwell...

No stick but shows 3 pedals? Hmmm...

FINALLY, some lateral support! Notice there's no stickshift...

Macro time! Hybrid?

A closer look...

Clamshell open.

The "booty!"

Notice how the door not only raises but it also rotates on it's axis.

Wheels are attached via 1 large nut rather than 5 lugnuts.

Cross drilled and slotted w/ 8 piston calipers!

My new C7!

Back in 1994, during the Charlotte 600 NASCAR race, an oil company did a test with 2 Hendrick/Joe Gibbs car engines. Both were run the full 600 miles at race speed. Both were totally torndown post race. (They always are.) One was run with a synthetic oil and the other got "dino" oil. Both oils...

Sure, we use them too. Unfortunately, too often they become slanging matches with "keyboard courage." If you search a little deeper here, you'll find many tech articles that you might find helpful.

John~ Since you're looking at a 2 year old car with only 800 miles, there's a good chance the battery is "weak" and will need replacing sooner rather than later. The cars' worth is in the high 40's so you know the market. Has the car been modded? From what I understand, the T6060 trans has had...

I remove the (2) 8mm screws from the rocker panel and blow compressed air in there. Be sure to wear goggles because a lot of stuff can be in there! I used to seal the void with duct tape but got so much grief from other owners about the tape that I removed it and now I gotta empty the "gravel...

If you like it now, wait until you hear it with the "muffler mod!" See above post. Chevy gets 6 more hp with the LS3, so I'd presume the LS7 gets similar gains. Dunno. Depends on your right foot...:rotfl
