McJacks headers are a good choice for shorty headers. But, it is a personal choice. Headers or no headers. Really your decision.

Shifter selector cables, speedometer cable, and kick down cable. Ground straps rear located on the frame drivers side above muffler and one on the frame in front on drivers side under master cylinder. Starter connections, alternator connections and distributor connections. Battery...

I am glad that one seems to be behind you. They all have some Christine in them!!!

Hi Rick. Congratulations on picking up the 82. I would check to see if you have power both on the parking light side and the direction light side of the light socket. Use a test lamp and run one end to a good ground then turn on the parking light and then the directional. If the both work...

I think you are spot on with your logic. Normally it is the valve cover gaskets that are leaking. They are notorious.

I looked at mine today and the bracket is the same, but I have an added piece of linkage. The diagram above has what you need to figure out what you are missing.

But as stated earlier. Check out the parts catalogs they have some very detailed drawings. This should help.

I should be crawling around under the car tomorrow. I have a 700R4 transmission but, the connections should be the same. I will let you know what I find out.

It has been a while since I have been crawling in that area of the car. There is a bracket missing and possibly a piece of linkage.

Great test. Thanks for the quick lesson? :beer

Ignition on. When the ignition is on you should not see ground but voltage since the circuit is now completed. If you are seeing 12 plus volts things should be good. So run your voltmeter from that contact to ground and what do you see?

I did a google search and came up with a bunch of different forums. Most of the first searches did not match your exact problems but maybe worth some of your time. My path would be taking it to a transmission shop with specializes with 700R4s and has a good reputation and see what they have to...

One addition thought. There is a ground at the rear of the car. A black wire that ties to the frame. Make sure it is a good solid ground. Corvette electrical problems are usually ground related, aging wiring does not help, and body shops are not usually very good at electrical wiring...

I believe 1 1/4 inch. One size over where most sockets sets stop. But as they said above an crescent wrench will work or even channel locks.

Shift works makes a nice conversion for you existing shifter. check this out. SHIFTWORKS - Corvette - 1968-81 Bowtie Overdrives has a nice crossmember. Makes exhaust much easier and they have other goodies you might find interesting. If you use this crossmember you will need a smooth tail...

Where do you find the dealer invoices?

Behind the front wheels on the frame where it straightens out and in front of the rear wheels on the frame. I believe they are the jack spots in the owners manual.

I have the same rim in a 18" rims with zero offset and they clear the calipers.

I looked at this again. And yours looked very similar to what mine looked like. I started moving the top up and to the rear of the car in the area in front of the rear wheel wells. I marked the original spot, added markings on tape in both directions that thought I need to go and went from...
