    Looking for '05/06 Vette

    Hi Guys - I have a C3 and would like to get a C6. In looking over ads, the same year car can vary as much as 5-8k excl the Z06 option. I assume this price differential (other things being equal) is due to RPO's. As I am new to the C6's, could anyone point me to a website that would list all the...

    77 Tape Deck/Radio Problem

    I got the door closed! I made a "J" shaped piece of coathanger wire, sharpened the hooked end and reached in and pulled on the top of the door and it closed. Pushing it partially open with my finger shows it will return to the closed position when its released. Problem is its sticking on...

    77 Tape Deck/Radio Problem

    Ya, its the door/face of the radio that's not closing so you're suggesting that I may have to pull the radio to get at this too? Thanks for the input!:)

    Looking to buy a C5

    Hi All Got a '77 and am now looking for a C5 coupe, manual gearbox. Is there a best year for the C5's or are all equally good? In buying used, what are some problem areas that if they showed up, I'd be best to walk away? Is there a certain milage at which things start to get really expensive? In...

    Hooker Headers Problem in L82

    Hey Curtis - thanks so much for showing me the pics of your H-pipe connection. I spoke to a local muffler shop and they said they could cut a hole in each exhaust pipe and mig in a crossover but I wasn't sure where it should be placed. Its winter here and no way am I gonna do the paint thing and...

    Hooker Headers Problem in L82

    Thanks for the info regarding how to test where to put the H pipe. What is a 700R4? Did you use a commercially available H pipe? Hooker only has a universal but I suppose any of the correct size would do. So where exactly did you place your H pipe? I'll consider the sound deadner, too. Did you...

    Hooker Headers Problem in L82

Its supposed to reduce resonance and help scavenge gases from the other cylinder bank. I was just wondering how...

    Hooker Headers Problem in L82

    Thanks for the quick feedback guys..yes its a 4 spd so I guess I gotta remove the clutch cross shaft. It appears once the collector has passed the block there is no room to manipulate the individual pipes (that bolts to the head) past either the steering box or the clutch cross shaft. My lift...

    Hooker Headers Problem in L82

    Hi Guys I searched some of the posts and none really helped with this problem yet I doubt its unique. I have a stock 1977 L82 now with hooker headers on the passenger side only. My problem is how do I get the LS header in? Its a ceramic coated competition model - I have a lift and have tried...
