Replace all the rubber flex lines.. Not only can they leak they can suck air back into the system. Another problem they cuase is collasping inside and locking pressure on that caliber. If you haven't replaced them DO IT. They don't cost much and can solve a lot of different problems. Gary

I'm running 255's on the rear and 245's on the front. it just worked out that way becuase I got a buy on the 245's when I had to replace the rears. Didn't want smaller on the rear, so put them up front. It has worked just fine for me and I like having the front down just a little. Gary SAVE the...

Jon, Great pictures and a great looking Corvette. Anacortes is such a great place for viewing the Northwest. Congratulation on getting on the Ausi A.M.C.A Calender. Gary

I'll have to look to find the paint code. I had it repainted '78 Corvette Yellow. I think the code was 95 or 97. It not the pale yellow that a lot of the C3 vettes are. I have more pics I can E-mail. Gary

Hib, As you can tell from my replies I had one of those Cal. 305's and was very happy with it. I'd still have, but for some SUV took the frontend off it. It was the best daily driver I ever had. Some didn't like them and others talk them down; but I'd take another anytime. Gary

Maybe it's the driver or just a bad motor; My 80 305 would do 0-60 in 6.5. Gary
