On stock L98 mufflers the exhaust only comes out one side on each muffler. I believe the convertibles and some later L98's rated at 245 hp had dual working tips.

lol...When I wrote my response I was gonna say that I thought LTx motors generally ran at a higher temp then L98s.

Mine runs 180 down the road all day long. My tuned chip kicks the fan on at 190. I've never seen the temp climb above 195 even when idling along in the heat.

That's some funny chit right there. Good post and welcome! :beer

Instead of the RainX, every time I polish my car I just put a coat on all the glass too. Pretty much the same properties. Rain driving not so bad. Snow driving, white knuckle time. I tell people my vette drives great in the snow, except when I'm trying to take off, stop, or turn.

Also check the flexible brake lines at each wheel. As they age they will balloon out some under pressure causing a spongey feel. I replaced mine with braided SS lines.

Oh....an '84. Please disregard post #3. :bash

Exactly right. The factory pressure regulator, is on top of the intake manifold base, under the plenum. It's non-adjustable. To adjust fuel pressure I recommend installing a Holley adjustable regulator. You'll have to remove the plenum to install it.

In simple form (which is appropriate for me), your V8 engine is an air pump. The way to increase HP is to allow more air to flow through it. Intake mods, heads, cam, exhaust, supercharging, they're all designed to flow more combustible material (air) into the combustion chambers. Unless you're...

If the calipers are moving there's a couple things to check. At the bottom of each caliper is a pin held in place by a c-clip. Make sure the pin and c-clip are there and that the pin is not bent or broken. Those should be replaced from time to time and can be bought a reasonable price. The...

You will need adapters to fit late model C4 rims on an '87 or older.

I'm happy to help when I'm able. I gotta hit the sack. I'll check back in tomorrow. I'm sure others may have some ideas too. :beer

The fuse panel for your TDS is located behind the Driver information center. Also a hatch and crank fuse is there .Requiring removal of the center panel of your dash. It's a 15 amp fuse.

Yeah, my VATS system will go off for no reason from time to time. The Theft Deterrent System (TDS) is somewhat unrelated to the VATS system. The VATS works off a "pellet" in your key. If it's dirty or corroded, it can cause problems. Sometimes the VATS acts up for no reason and the only cure is...

According to the owners manual. Locking the doors with the power door lock switch activates the theft deterrent system. ;shrug

Hmmmm. I thought that was it. Let me check my owners manual. Be back shortly.

I believe you merely need to lock the doors using the power locks before closing the door and it's set.

Wanna do mine next? :D

I just lay a mirror on the floor and can then see exactly what I'm doing without becoming a contortionist. Work smart, not hard. :D
