    Will an 87 el Camino 700r4 fit behind an L98 1984 corvette?

    if the shaft is a different length the shaft is the first thing that goes into the trans when assembling , so that means total dissasembley if they are the same as all other GM auto trams have been. Also want to check spline count .

    89 C4 engine oil

    Others may have diff views on this,but I would stay with the 10W40 . I believe the manual calls for 5w30 I run 10w30 in my 90 with 106,000 miles . Summer temps range from 50 to close to 100 and I have never been worried about it. If oil pressure is good I would not change. Mobil1 synthetic does...

    Help! 1993 Intermittent Issues

    Clean ALL grounds. Some of what you said pointed to electrical. Poor grounds on these corvettes cause strange problems.If that don't cure most of the problems have the alternator checked.Also it would be a good idea to get the service manual. I believe Helms is the publisher.

    Wet Carpet Ppassenger Side.

    Does it get wet just standing or do you need to be moving for it to get wet. My 90 the windshield seal leaks at the bottom and in rain the water blows under the windshield. I have tried injecting sealer from the bottom but it still leaks.On mine it usually runs down between the dash and the side...

    A/C Malfunction

    Sounds like it may be low on Freon. I would hook up a set of gauges and check that first.Something you could try ,locate the low pressure switch and jumper the two wires to see if it runs, if it does either the switch is bad or Freon is low. don't run it to long,If Freon and oil is not...

    Thermostat Question?

    The engine will most likely overheat without a thermostat , coolant moves to fast to transfer heat.

    I need some opinions...

    Was the flywheel replaced or just the clutch disk. OEM was a dual mass flywheel which has lube in it. If it wasn't replaced (they are not available need to replace with standard flywheel/clutch) you could have lube leaking on the clutch surface. Also on the ZF trans the pilot bushing is very...

    Relay!!!!!!!!!!

    You say the cooling fan was wired to ignition.. Generally the cooling fans run on relays, relays are wired with coil to 12 v. the relay ground is completed by the ECM to turn on the fans. I would really question how they wried the fans.And anything else.

    Help! tach inaccurate?

    GM tachs in Camero and Corvette around that time period are known to go bad. There are youtubes on how to repair them . If you can't repair it you need to remove the cluster and replace it or have it repaired. My 90 does the same thing , just haven't found the time to take care of it .

    Looking to buy 1995 Corvette in fair shape - looking at some advice

    If the car hadn't been moved in a few weeks and the tires are a soft compound they could have flat spots which could make it shake badly. Would have to get some heat in the tires to get them to smooth out, as much as 20 miles.Sounds like the car has been neglected and could be costly to get into...

    Safety worries - brakes and seat belts

    I don't like what you describe ,my 90 is one of the best braking cars I have ever had. I wonder it there is air in the system or the master cyl isn't in the best shape. I use heavy toe pressure to stop my 90. If you press on the pedal for a min or two does it slowly go down ?

    C4 Mufflers

    Do not install a larger pipe from the cat back. I installed 3 in OD pipes on my 90 from the cat back and without real loud mufflers I have a terrible drone at highway speed . I attribute it to the large pipe. Almost like it creates an echo chamber.
