    positively identifying an L88 engine?

    Doh! :duh......just noticed you were talking about a '67 L88. The one at the Kruse auction is a '69. I thought about cruising down to see what some of these beauties go for. Brett

    positively identifying an L88 engine?

    Tom....it's up for sale again on October 21st at Kruse. Assuming it's the same one I saw in the Kruse brochure I recieved last month. It's a medium blue roadster that was part of the Bob Phelps collection. Here's the listing...

    Looking at a '71 coupe.....

    and could use a little advice. Here's the deal: I was approached last night by a friend at our cigar lounge. His dad's friend is looking to sell his '71 coupe, and it sounds like he needs the cash pretty quickly. What little I know- 454 with a 4 speed, side pipes and 39k miles. Supposed to be...

    Best way to transport a Vette

    Alan......somethings not sounding right here. I've got an '02 with about 13-14k on the mileage. I've never heard of rotors going bad from lack of use. And my seats have a little wear on them......but not enough to replace. If you haven't already, I'd talk directly with the dealership that did...

    Has anyone else also changed their mind?

    Congrats on the new ride. I'm sure it was the right decision for you. For me, it was 2 reasons: Didn't want to give up my roadster Didn't want to downgrade in hp/torque ;) ........but, like you, I haven't ruled out adding one to my stable in the future. Brett

    1965 Roadster For Sale > Trade

    Well La....Tee...Da. I just love it the way you register here to sell your car and then have a snit when someone asks a legitimate question. Not being a member of the NCRS, I don't know their rules. But according to you, if you can't see the changes, then it's perfectly alright to call it...

    Allow SO or spouse to drive your vette alone?

    Tammy has driven my vette.......ok, ok, if you ask her, it's really her's, as it has her name beneath the right front fender....thanks to her uncle in the BG plant :eyerole But that was before I gave her a heart transplant :naughty: Tammy's driven her once since. And once was enough. She's...

    Z06 vs C6R Comparison

    They were referring to the C6R motor which has a custom set of heads. No way you're gonna get close to 800 hp out of a normally aspirated LS7. Brett

    Lowered C5's

    Hey Remo, I lowered mine last year to the end of the stock settings. No real issues with clearance. What I did notice immediately was the stiffer ride. Bumps are more jarring now. I assume it is because the suspension doesn't have as much movement to absorb the bumps. At least once or twice...

    My baby needs new shoes

    I agree 100% that flats are rarer today. I drive about 40k miles a year and haven't had a flat in probably 20 yrs.......but in my trucks, I've always got a spare :D But I have seen my share of blown tires from people hitting debris in the roadway. Not much you're gonna do about that. Now with...

    My baby needs new shoes

    Good choice on the run-flats. I know I wouldn't want my wife riding around without them. I've got regular tires on mine.....and every trip over a couple hours away from home, it's always in the back of my mind that I don't have runflats :ugh Brett
