Installed a new set of Edelbrock Performer RPM heads with crane roller rocker arms and now I have a distinct chtt chtt chtt chtt sound coming from one cylinder.
The sound goes away if I disconnect the spark plug wire to that cylinder.
Any ideas? Could the valve lash be adjusted improperly on...
The car was running bad the other day so I did a compression test and found that the #8 cylinder had a compression reading of only 30. Every other cylinder was 150-155. So I decided to pull the head to see if I had a burnt valve and after pulling the intake I found this.
What's causing...
This morning when I started the vette up (dark outside) I turned on the headlights and my small gauge cluster lights were pulsing and my stereo was randomly turning off and on (I tapped into the cig lighter power for the stereo power during the original install 2 years ago). Then after a few...
Car is acting weird lately. Can't keep the carb tuned. Car will idle and run fine and then get progressively worse after driving for 10-15 miles. The car will also miss out randomly, and more consistently around 3k rpms.
The car will idle up an extra 5k rpms by pumping the brake several...
I just installed an anodized aluminum fuel line from Jegs and it came with a fuel pressure gauge installed on it. The fuel pressure fluctuates rapidly from 1-3psi. Does anyone know the correct pressure it should be at or why it would fluctuate like that?
Thanks
I just bought new 3 point seat belts to replace my factory originals that no longer work. I've started removal of the old belts on the driver side and am having trouble with the bolt underneath the seat that secures the lower retractor.
I've soaked the bolt in penetrating lube so far...but do...
75 vette with auto trans with all the problem above.
Initially the blinkers started acting up every once in a while, then totally quit....then the flashers started acting up (when on they would blink fast...then slow down....then speed up a whole bunch), then they quit working all together...
:mad Ok listen up fellas....here's what happened to me on Friday.
I decided to take the corvette to work which is roughly 10 miles away. I drove all the way there and noticed I needed gas, so I pulled into the gas station directly across the street from work. I turned off the car, filled it...
Quick question for you guys. What diameter flex fan do I need for a 75 L48 and what thickness of spacer?
I'm going to go with the Flex-a-lite brand 6 blade setup.
Thanks in advance!:beer
Had a bad starter about 4 months ago so went to Autozone and bought a starter. Put the starter on and it worked and sounded fine for the first 3 starts. Then the starter started making a higher pitched noise while cranking. The starter would still crank the engine until it started but the...
Hey guys when I turn my headlights on, only the right headlight pops up....I can go over to the left headlight and give it a little lift and then it'll go all the way up. It stays up fine and goes down when I turn the lights off???
Could it be possible that I have a crimped vacuum hose somewhere?
Update!!! Finally Fixed....Terrible Starting Problem PLEASE HELP!!
A couple months ago I put a new starter on my 75 Vette. It was just a regular replacement starter from AutoZone. This starter worked fine for a couple months until I let the car sit for about a month.
After the month of...

What kind of hp gains and time reductions can I expect from a new set of heads or a new cam? I want the most aggressive set of heads and cam that I can find...

I've tried removing all of the screws in the panel, but the panel is still wedged in there pretty good. Will I need to drop...

I was wondering how big the gains are from MSDs HEI distributors? I'm in the market for either a new distributor or one of those HEI Kits by MSD that converts the orginal distributor into a high performance one.
My car misses occasionally when revving around 4k-5k rpms and I was hopeing that...
Before everyone jumps on me...I've already done a search and read as many threads as I could about this.
The agent I spoke with stated that in most cases an adjuster doesn't have to check the cars damage when a claim is reported....that me sending a pic would be enough.
Has anyone made a...
