    Question: 92 Passenger side front Bose Speaker amp is out - I think...

    1992 Coupe w/ original Bose system - How do I know if it's the Amp or something else. Nothing works, just massive static when I turn on the system, and I think it's coming from the passenger side speaker up front. Any way to test, or is this a $159 guess to buy an amp from Mid Am on line and...

    Question: Gauges for Oil / Coolant temp not reading but Digital readout for both OK. 1992 C4

    Gauges for both Oil temp and Coolant temp are not reading but the Digital readout for both are working fine. Don't know if there are separate fuses for these or not. It's the Analog gauges and not the digital for temps. Everything else on the dash display is working properly such as Volts...

    Amp Relay location for 92

    Help -- Where is the Amp Relay (for stereo) located for my 92 vette? I'm looking on the right hand side in the rear hatch area, per the instructions, but cannot find it. Am I looking in the right location? Do I need to dig further behind pannels etc.? ;shrug WD

    Synthetic and Regular oil mix in an LT1:

    A friend at work who owns a 93 40th aniv. edition told me that she had to top off her oil with about 1/4 cup. She then proceeded to tell me she used Penzoil and asked if it was a good brand. I immediately asked if it was a synthetic type as I don't belive Penzoil makes a syn. She said she...

    LT4 LT1 to LT4 Conversion

    Looking through one of the corvette magazines I noticed the LT1 to LT4 upgrade kit for around $2300 from Summit. It says "The kit will give you a proven 425+ HP" . On top of that it says all I need are computer engine management mods and a fuel rail from a 94 - 95 model. So for about $3000...

    Does Gear ratio affect HP rating on a Dyno?

    This is a fundamental question that may be obvious to some. I've been following several topics on HP and rear gear ratio and have to wonder. Numerically, if you have a higher gear ratio you will accelerate faster when compared to a lower gear ratio number (i.e. 3.73 and 2.59 respectively)...

    LT1 engine stalled.

    This has happened twice now and I don't have a clue why. The last time it stalled I was driving home from a short 10 mile trip from the store. I had made a spirited romp along a 1 mile straight and slowed to 40mph as I started down a fairly steep hill. Got to the bottom and came to a full...

    Removable Glass top Flaking...

    I don't really know how to describe it but the dark tinted glass roof has a layer that is flaking off. Its not the tint but a thin top layer that seams to get worse after I wash the car. It appears to be a clear coat that is only noticeable up close. Is there any way to fix this, or am I...

    315/35/17 tires on stock 9.5" Rims

    I just read an add on ebay of someone selling 1991 stock vette wheels (17/9.5) with 315/35/17 tires. Looks good and wide but is this safe? I know tire manufacturers can vary in width or hight of the tire to obtain a certain contact patch, but this seams a bit extream. Any comments would be...

    LT1 Dyno numbers

    Saw the LT4 dyno numbers thread and thought I would ask what the LT1 dyno numbers are. I know I have 300 HP at the crank but through the auto transmission and drive line etc. I'm guessing 250-260 RWHP and 270-280 tq.

    Multi Port VS Sequential Port

    For the 92-93 LT1 corvette the Fuel Injection offered was a Multiport FI where (and I think this is how to describe it) each nozzle on one bank (side) will fire regardless if the intake valve for that cylinder is open. Tis will happen as long as one valve is open on that Bank. In 1994 to 96...

    Retrofit FX3 shocks

    For a 92 coupe auto with the standard suspension (no Z51) can I upgrade to the FX3 shocks? Is it worth the effort to just replace the shocks or should I upgrade to stiffer springs and sway bars.

    1.6 Rocker swap

    A question to the masses but mainly for the LT1 type engine. I have heard of swapping a roller rocker with 1.6 ratio in place of the stamped 1.5 ratio non-roller rocker to increase HP. I have read that Crane Cams has the only replacement type roller rocker that will fit under the stock valve...

    C4 Jack Points

    A few months ago I took the vette in for its yearly inspection. A friend operates a service station close by and he has been inspecting all my cars for many years. Since this is the first inspection since I purchased the car a year ago I figured I would stick around to take advantage of...

    The right chip

    At the risk of asking a question that I'm sure has been asked many times before. I have a 92 LT1 coupe with auto that is completely stock and like many of us, would like to increase HP and TQ via the CHIP. Is there a best chip for the non programmable 92 computer? I've seen and read ads for...
