My first impression - not really sure - technically its going to be one fast car to drive.
I guess a new engine design will be held back for the C8's.
They must of run out of design money by the time they got to the back of the car.
Then again I love the clean lines of my C5 vert.
They...

My understanding is that Paul lost touch with Denise the admin of the old site and I don't think has been able to contact her. Jonathan (JBsC6) contact Paul and...
There is no denying that this site is far more active than the other site. I very much enjoy this site and actively promote it when I can.
The difference for myself was the accurate and timely posts of a couple members from that site. This I think, is why so many people have an interest in...
I sure hope this site ( corvette mechanic) has not gone from the internet. I will tell you first hand it is a great site. Paul (c4c5 specialist)was a leader and great asset to all who knew him and used his site.
Well, I can say that Corsa out sells the others by a ton. Last year at Carlisle Show Corsa had a huge pile of old systems, had to be 10 times bigger than Magnaflow and Borla.
That many people cant be wrong when it comes to a good system.
Wait for the show and buy it and have it installed right there. Last year I bought one at the show from WEST COAST CORVETTE , they had the best pricing of all the vendors. Corsa teamed installed it for no charge.
I bought a Corsa Pace car with Pro tips for I think $1100 taxes in and fully...
Where I live Petro Canada is the only gas vendor in my area that sells 94 octane fuel. Sunoco does as well but they are slowly being converted to Petro Canada Stations.
Today was put away day of the Vette. :ugh
Dont know what the dealer shop rate is for changing the serpentine and air conditioning belt is but I must of saved big doing it myself. That little belt is one pain the ass to change.
Fresh belts, oil, air filter, pcv and she will be ready to go in 6...
Mine dont squeal because of the pad wear clips either. It seems to happen when the pads are hot only. I was told that when pads get thinner they may be sticking causing the noise.
Sounds exactly like what mine do. I too thought ball joints, sway bar, steering rack etc. Had it checked out and everything was fine. I had an expert look at it while at Carlisle and this was his suggestion. Made sense to me as mine too happens at very low speeds while turning the wheel. In my...
I would not touch any factory LS1 with a tune or any other factory engine for that matter. If you want to go faster buy a newer car with more power or have the complete drivetrain re-engineered of your exsisting car. I learned long ago that messing around with factory settings only causes other...
Stabil in gas is a must, injectors - no worries if you use stabil, if not then you run the risk of fuel going bad. No worries about tire sensors, do not have to reprogram.
Battery chargers/trickle chargers/C -tech or whatever no reason to use them.
Disconnect the negative battery cable
Do...
