    ramps, jacks and not getting crushed

    You (and the car) are safer being on ramps in the front. Ramps have an (anti roll back) lip that will keep the car from rolling back. DON'T jack on the rear spring. Find a better place to jack on. Not sure where on your car. :)

    ramps, jacks and not getting crushed

    It's pretty safe, I do it a lot. I usually lower down onto the rear stands just so there is weight on them & still leave a little weight on the jack, so it's supported by 6 points. Sometimes you need to drop the jacks out to get clearance for whatever you are doing & it's a bit scary at first...

    What is it for? Brakes!

    Was not meant as an insult. Sorry you take things that way. :confused So basically you put in new pads and never bled the brake system, maybe just a little drop of oil or two down the bleeder "hole" with the rubber "hood"? I see it's your first Corvette, uh, but those caliper bleeders are...

    What is it for? Brakes!

    Dear Friend, If you don't know what that is for, you should not be doing your own brake job. If it's a joke question, you got me. :)

    WTB Air Box or Cover (Bought Items)

    A lot of guys think it just passes air in thru the front hole. I had mine out & can see a lot of air passages on both sides. If you are going to drill some holes (swiss cheese mod) try to quantify before/after instead of the usual SOP evaluation. We would all be interested. :)

    Question: No tire pressure sensors - What happens?

    I have "heard" that even with another set of rims/tires/sensors that if the pressure "seen" is outside of the parameters that gm decides, you will get reduced power. Often the desired pressure for track/autox is above or below the narrow parameters, so you might want to find out b4 you spend the...

    Seat Shoulder harness

    I can't tell from the picture, but unless you have a proper roll bar, it's not a good idea. :)

    Changing the headlight bulbs?

    H1R is a plug in or needs ballast & wiring? Any heat damage yet from H1R? :)

    Changing the headlight bulbs?

    I did mine, not hard, but I am pretty good at automotive stuff. If you have BIG hands it'll be harder. It's easy to "think" you have the new bulb "screwed in" right & it's not. I cranked the buckets up by hand & took off the side covers (3 philips screws) Twist off, insert new bulb (don't...
