Thanks Hib! Not likely to get too sporty with my driving...don't want to hurt anybody or myself! Tom

C3 tires... Thanks Mike! Tom

I'm sure this has been beaten to death. I've not had a Vette before, this is my first ('78 Anniversary car). I've build up a number of '40's - '50's street rods over the last 35 years. Getting harder to do (old body syndrome:cry), and I just moved and have less space ('55 up community). Long...

RH Mirror Thanks. Odd...:eyerole

:ughJust bought a '78 Silver Anniversary car, L48 TH350. Will be installing a BW ST10 over the winter, 2.88 1st gear to go with my 3.08 rear. Dumb question - my driver's side mirror has a manual control on the door. Nothing on the passenger side. Do I just shove the glass around or what? Tom in NJ

Swing pedal frames Thanks Mike! Guess I'll be on the hunt for a swing pedal setup. I have everything else, even the funky ujoint to marry the big yoke to the A/T driveshaft. Tom :beer

C3 swing pedals? In converting an A/T car to stick, can just the clutch/brake pedal armes be changed/added, or is the mounting frame for each different?:confused Tom

3-2 shift Double clutch helps most up shifting (2-3, 3-4 etc). But you should be able to hit neutral momentarily, blip the throttle, and get it to go in (assuming you're not at high R's in 3 going to 2). I'd definitely check and rule out shift linkage. You gotta get under, but confirm that in...

Getting my C3 soon! Went to the Carlisle PA show/swap on Saturday, and bought a '78 C3 Anniversary car( :happyanim: ), silver/charcoal two-tone with oyster leather interior. Can't wait to get it, license/insure, and drive my first Vette! It's an L48 A/T (:duh ) but I want to drive it a bit...

C3 4 speed conversion So sorry, obviously a very old topic. I've found out that, at least for '75 up, the ST10's have a large T400 style yoke, a 621 BB bell is used (like on Chevelles), as well as an iron nose starter for 168 tooth (big) flywheel. I am not jazzed by shifters that mount to the...

Greetings! New to the forum, and not yet a C3 owner (looking at many). Would LOVE a C2, but I have a caviar appetite and a burger WALLET. I'm aware that the stick cars were Muncie through '74, and then switched to BW ST10's. So, since I don't have one to look at, can you tell me if the '75 up...
