Ok LT1 owners- Your main pulley aka harmonic balancer.... Does it run completly true, or is there some wobble in it? Has it always been this way? Factory or replacement? The reason....In the dealers quest to figure out why my belt keeps jumping, the replaced my hub and balancer. The old one...

Thank you. Yes, it is for the 6spd. Sorry, I have been out of town, and away from the computer. the up side is that I was driving a '62 vette while I was gone. Mike

A lot of times, the mechanism fails due to people closing the hatch/trunk too hard. The mechanism ends up taking a beating and as a result, does not last as long. A lot of cars use these systems. It should not be beyond reason to retrofit one. The trick would be getting the system to go up...

I feel the need, the need for speed! (otherwise known as "MORE GAS!") :bu

If someone has a manual for a 1991, would you consider making copies of section seven? It is the part that covers the transmission and clutch. I just bought a GM manual for my 1992, and it said look at the 1991 book for this information. If someone is willing, let me know. Let me know how...

UB- The heads sound like the ones that the LT-4 came with-but don't quote me. I would be willing to buy any of the pieces you do not use. (I am sure I am not the only one.) Congrats on such a fun gift. Mike

Corvette people are always welcome, even if they are currently without a vette. -Mike

Good idea. I may be joining you. This setup sounds to fun to pass up an attempt. MIke

1992 Corvette.

I like this idea of butterfly valves in the exhaust system. I think it is worth trying. I am up for a test. What size tubing would you try this with. I have a 3" system, but I think the previous owner had delusions of grandure. Graham/Redbob: do you have a sketch of this type of system...

Two ways to slay the beast- 1. buy the cags disconnect piece from a catalog. 2. Just unplug the sucker and save the $$ It is located on the drivers side of the transmission if i remember correctly. -Mike

I used a cutting/sanding disk for the drill. Just slice away, and like they said before, keep your fingers out of the way. I cut mine inside the pop rivet holes so that I can reinstall the plastic thing if want to. (why I don't know, but as soon as I cut that extra bit off, the reason will...

RedBob- On those adjusting mufflers, are there prototypes available, or an ability to recreat them? What would happen if you straight swapped a set designed for a Skyline? -Mike

So, Bullwinkle, are you suggesting a trail of Slim Fast or rice cakes?:L I don't know that I am that skinny, but I grew up fetching things for my dad when he dropped them in tight spaces. I guess I still can do it, for a little while. My days as a contorsionist (sp) are coming to an end-but...

The hub was checked and machined. It runs true. It was slightly off, but since they had it apart, it was machined. Ok, so the update from the Chevy Dealer on Friday: I got my vette back with a new belt and tensioner. The thought/theory from them was that the pulley had irregular wear on it...

From what you say, I think I will check into the Hal's a bit. They sound like what I am looking for (except for that really cool console switch!). As for the other problem....Well I don't think I will get a horse yet. Its just frustrating to have fun car that you can not drive as intended due...

What if you are the skinny kid?:SLAP oops. I was just in there last weekend. I was able to get to the back of the light both under the bumper and through the license plate area.

I have wanted to do some mods, but only a K&N and the cat-back. I figure it helps me at this point because they can not say that a modification caused the problem.

Graham- I was wondering about the Edelbrock too. The other one is the Koni yellows They are supposed to be dual adjustable, without removal. I have also thought about getting a FX-3 system and transplant it. That with rebuilt (stiffer) adjustable bilsteins would put me back a few $$. The...

The A/C pulley has been checked, and eliminated. (So much for the easy/inexpensive) I am guessing a crank, but the dealer that would have to shell out for it will probably not agree. If for nothing else than the fact that I will be making them pay for it. The thrust bearing is also a...
