Here's a side view of the skirts of the same pistons.

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.

I'll never forget when I got my C6Z back in 2006. I went to the gas station to fill up and a woman (well dressed, corp type) walked up to me and started to scold me: "Why didn't you buy an American car? You buying a foreign import car is destroying our economy. You should support America." I...

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

Only if there's a defect in materials or workmanship. What's your "technique" for getting in/out of you car? Are you sliding your butt across the seat causing wear?

Actually, you are losing your hearing, lol...

Don't forget to pull the exhaust flap fuse. (Of course, you'll discover DRONE, but ya gotta at least try it.) You're right about throttle response, all the C6's are quite lazy with this. It can be helped slightly with tuning, but don't bother destroying your warranty just yet. About the LS3~...

The only way to test a battery is by putting a known load on it, then measuring the voltage.

The oil pressure is EXTREMELY dependant upon the oil temperature and RPM. You must include the oil temperature & RPM for a comparison. I drove a new GS a couple weeks ago (it had <20 miles on it.) I noticed the oil pressure varied from 22 PSI to 75 PSI. With this info only, it's useless. You...

I know of no such alarm as being "OEM." I'd just disconnect it.

Blade silver is what it's called. With white GS stripes, it's going to be BRIGHT! Did you get the "Heretage package?" Post a pic when you get it. Also, you might want to remove fuse #10. It is located on the very bottom row in the right column. (This fuse box is located in the passenger's foot...

Yup, they were headed W/B while I was headed E/B on the 40...

However, if you rarely drive your car, you can expect reduced battery life. This is true for any vehicle made (car, motorcycle, boat.)

Al, you car will not be on any train. Bowling Green has been using Allied Auto-Transport since the C5 days. Unfortunately, Allied will not tell anyone when or where their car is currently (for TSA security purposes.) It'll look like this~

You won't be dissapointed with the LS3! You'll find it has better torque AND drivability than any of the engines you have listed. There are 2 engines that beat the LS3. They are the LS7 & LS9. That's it![/FONT][/COLOR] Also, since the LS3 is so refined, it seems slower than your LT4 & 5...

Fixed it for ya, Hib!
