Sensei; Thanks for starting this thread. Your information is certainly NOT irresponsible and is in line with the concerns of many other knowledgeable guys. Duke Williams has been promoting CI-4 deisel oils for several years. At this time I'm not sure supplements are necessary just use CI-4 rated...

Bob, I think he probably wants a BB for summer cruising, I bet you know what he's talkin' 'bout .

Oh maan, I missed Larry's car. I see there's another thread going on this show.

This may be redundant but I just watched a speedvision special on "Corvettes of Carlisle". Saw a familiar sight. A flash of the famous "67 Heaven" drivin" by, lookin' good. The Bob gets around!

My wife is also, shall I say , VERY understanding. From Corvette/ antique auto parts to Harley Davidson engine re-rings she puts up with a lot in the house.

Well sure, except I gotta work :ugh . I'd sure drive aways to meet you for lunch tho. Waterton s about 4 hrs away...

Calgary was my home city, 1 million people. I live 7 hrs west of there now 14000 people. It's better.

Majic, boy you've got that figured out! Are you on the road now?

I think that's cause duct tape goes without sayin';LOL

I also carry some small aligator clip jumper leads, a multi meter, elec tape, and I don't leave home without my tire plug kit. Some times there's a compressor around. Just plug the hole and fill'er up. Had to do that a couple of times.

I see John. Just thinking that must be a very "firm" area to shim without affecting the whole panel alignment. I have done my share of body work on steel cars but have never had to replace any panels on a Corvette. I notice that the photo's are labeled '65 Corvette. Is there any benifit to using...

Go show John. Any chance of pics of the above stated situation?

Getting under a car supported by only a hydraulic jack is NOT an option! Keeping a fire extigusher handy is mandantory too.....

Thanks Jay, I've got it figured out now. It's sure not that difficult but it doesn't help if the instuction sheet is sorta vague and the thing comes partially assembled incorrectly. I finally looked on VB's site and found additional instuction sheets that sorted it out. I guess I'll flip my...

Can anyone post or send me a pic of an installed Vette Brake front spring assembly? Specifically the center mounts?

You're better off with the bronze bushimg.

There is an auto parts company out there called "Pioneer". They have a great many parts and pieces all usually available from your local auto parts store. Their clutch/flywheel/pilot bearing catalogue will surely show the adapting bushing you need. Have a look throught their performance parts...

Plus I guess your supposted to walk everywhere which is b.s.

Jeez, thats nice. I just ordered a 'glass front spring for the front of my '65. Anyone heard of these breaking?

I think that they were originally filled with gear oil. They tend to seep a lot because they are near the exhaust. Heats up and thins the oil and compromises the seal so the accepted thing today is to pump them full of grease. My box was low [empty?] so I made up a grease fitting that I can...
