    Where can I buy a Stock PROM?

    I've got one from an '87 you can have for free. There should be no difference. Just contact me with an address and I'll mail it to you. It had nothing wrong with it. I just replaced it with a performance prom and when I sold the car years ago I never gave up the prom. Jim

    Leather Mate by URAD?

    Have you tried Leatherique. I have used it for years and have no complaints. They have a WEB site about their products. I have used it on my seats at car shows and nobody can believe how good they look.

    Do you think GM hurts Corvette?

    The horse power ratings maybe up there for the other cars but look at their weight. The mustang is about 400# heavier than the ZO6. I think it even outweigh's my ZR1.

    Bleeding ABS Braking System

    Speed bleeders Invest in speed bleeders. They are great. You can change all the fluid in about 20 minutes, and by yourself. I installed mine when I changed brake hoses. One of the best ideas anybody ever came up with!

    Lose the badge?

    Were the holes drilled for the studs on the emblem or clipped off and just glued on? What ever looks good to you.

    LT4 LT4 to ZR1, LT4 or ZR1?

    The valet key only disables the secondaries. It has nothing to do with the drivability.

    [Press] PROTEAM LANDS RARE 1963 CORVETTE

    I suspected as much, but didn't want to say so. When people ask me about them I relate my story. I would never buy anything from them again. Anyone that buys from them just doesn't who they are dealing with. Knowing them why would anybody even mention them.

    [Press] PROTEAM LANDS RARE 1963 CORVETTE

    I bought my first Corvette in 1978, it was a '66. I ordered a couple of times from a Corvette parts company called T. Michaelis Corvette Parts. in Maumee (sp) Ohio. The last time I ordered from them I paid for $278 worth of parts that I did not receive. There was a divorce and from what I...

    ZR1 Tires...which are the best

    I bought the F1 GS D3's and what a difference than the old factory tires. Your problem might be getting caught in the snow in winter. They are not recommended for snow. Great in dry and rain, they hook up very nicely.

    1993 Test Drive

    The biggest problem with first time Corvette buyers is that they have this mind set that a Vette is this perfect machine. You have to remember that when you are buying one that is 10-15 years old it does or will have problems. Electrical or mechanical parts wear out regardless of mileage...

    84 Pwr Antenna Removal

    My '92 is basically the same. I jacked the drivers rear up and let the suspension lower the tire to give room and remove the rear portion of the wheel well liner.

    Bubba worked on my car

    If you go with changing the harness only go with a new one. Removing one from one car to another will cause problems with shorts, exposed wire and other electrical problems.

    Officially: My Car is Now a Senior Citizen

    I sure am glad Florida is not a personal property state. It's $48.50 a year on my '92.

    Battery keeps dying..

    Leaving the key all the way in the ignition will definately draw down the battery. The key all the way in signals all the micro-procers, from the computer, to get ready to to start. If you must put your key in only put in half way and the ECM will not be signaled.

    ZR1 Purchase Advise

    One thing to remember is when you drive it the ZR1 power band is best in the 5 grand + range. By this I mean when you test drive it and you are 30 mph in 4th and nail it it may not seem all that quick. If you want to really get a feel for it, at 60 mph pull it back in 2nd nail it and smile...

    Video clips

    I like my Corsa system on my '92. It is sound with authority but not obnoxious.

    Front Brake lock-up

    I thought of the brake lines, they are original as far as I know. I tried to rock the car using each front wheel and both sides seemed to be locked up but only the left front smoking. I'll order the brake lines anyway because like you I have heard of them collapsing internally trapping...

    Front Brake lock-up

    You might be right on the pressure loss afterward. I looked at my maintenance book and the last time I changed the fluid was almost 3 years ago. I bought speed bleeders over a year ago with the intention of installing them and changing fluid. The G...D.. storms though have put other to do's...
