    Please verify how many degrees the stat is set at b4 you install, it's on the stat & maybe the box. :) Also the degrees on the one you take out.

    Overheating problem C6, pls help !!

    "Cleaning the throttle body is easy, but only use throttle body cleaner, not carb or f.i. cleaner. The solvents in the other cleaners are said to be corrosive. CRC makes TB cleaner. All in all, it could be a cheap fix, and you certainly don't need the dealer's hourly rate cleaning. BTW -...

    Houston man says tire shop ruined classic Corvette

    This guy seems a little too "slick" as he details the damage, like a "slip & fall" victim who has done it before. Merry Xmas. :)

    Houston man says tire shop ruined classic Corvette

    Well the last crack shown by the reporter was near a taillight. ??? I say BS on this owner, Sam should fight this. 2 cents.

    News: Vette's thumping rubs some drivers the wrong way

    My opinion (duly noted) is that of course the steering engineers are aware and looked at it (not just for the c7). If they "fixed" it for parking lot turns they would likely compromise the geometry for high speed (track) handling. I'll take the high speed optmization. I have driven track only...

    C-6s for sale.... Dealers only ?

    If you could expand on this a little more, I would really be interested in how you say this has worked over 3 generations of Vettes. The new model rolls out and all the older ones go up in value? :thumb

    LT4 LT-4 opportunity

    I would spend the extra on a c5. I have had both. Or walk into the dealer with 8k cash in $100 bills and be prepared to walk out if he says no. The c5 is a lot more car especially z06. No comparison between my LT4 and my Z06. :thumb:thumb

    hardwiring the V1 radar detecter

    Just use this on any fuse panel inside. Tuck wire under trim. Use a circuit that is off when key is off. Simple is good. Run the grd to any other existing ground. You don't need a schematic or "master tech". It has it's own circuit and own fuse. Simple. No crosstalk. Worked on every Vette I...

    The $4, $3, $2, $1 Wiper Wholesaler Closeout is Bigger Than Ever!

    I went to the catalog and clicked on 18" thru 22" which covers my vehicles and they were all ANCO beam @ $6.70 each. While this is certainly not a bad price (must add shipping) it's about what a similar Goodyear beam blade goes for at Costco (no shipping). Did not see anything for...

    2014 Chevrolet Corvette Z51 or C6 Z06 -- Which do You Pick?

    Good poll, IMO most of us have to include price in the equation and the stickers I've seen for the 2014 seem to fall around 66K plus many dealers will gouge the first buyers to maybe 70 ish. I predict a NICE low mile c6z will be had around 40k within 6 or so months after the 14 starts...

    Video: C7 Corvette - Yes, it Really is That Good - The Smoking Tire

    I don't think those big smoky burnouts were with launch control. ?????? Looked to me like all nannies OFF. Still no axle hop. Maybe you only get it with sticky tires (A6) :)

    Did they tune out the axle hop? My c5z just hops if I try that. :)

    '04 HUD cover needed

    Try taking the bezel off and see if it just lays/snaps/sits there & the bezel holds it in. Maybe a little silicone sealer. :)

    Question: antenna question 1993

    When I had my 96 I used to wipe it with liquid teflon or silicone lube, cleans it & leaves a nice finish that does not atteact dust. Some of that lube for motorcycle chains that is greasless or some of the gun lubes are good. If I left it clean & dry it would occasionally hang up. Any kind of...
