This is exactly how I feel... You and I are in the same boat...I got the car I wanted (actually more than I wanted) and now all it does is sit in the garage...I don't drive it because I'd worry about it more than enjoy it when its out on the road. Sometimes I wish I would have got a non...

replacement cam I'm looking to get a replacement cam for my mostly stock LT-1. I would like to stay as close to spec as original, but also wouldn't mind gaining a few extra ponies... Any suggestions?

MECUM Those are they guys who ran the auction... I also spoke to the guy who owned the car I mentioned, I think his reserve was somewhere in the mid 50's...I thought it was way overpriced as well. Good luck in your hunt. Tony

Saw a '72 LT-1 AC 'vert at Carlisle going up for auction...bidding went up to around 45k & didn't sell. Very nice car, I forget the name of the auction co., but maybe if you got a hold of them, they could put you in touch with the owner? The color was like a silverish green...all #'s match, etc...

I would hope that the manufacturers of aftermarket exhaust systems & muffler shops also jump in on this & lobby the legislature to put a stop to this...they stand to lose a lot of $$$...especially if other states follow suit.

Bruce, just curious if you sold the 'vette yet and if you did, what kind of $$$ did you get for it? Tony

Who are these guys? I'm looking for a local 'vette shop to work on anything I can't do myself...

now going all out ported heads & bigger valves...with free flowing exhaust...

Here it is run on DD stock:

Assuming the block & casting numbers are correct...what is an easy way to tell if an LT-1 has solid lifters? Yes, I know all LT-1's came with solid lifters, but how do you tell by looking at the engine?

I just got a copy of Desktop Dyno & plugged in the numbers for a stock LT-1 and found that the HP & torque numbers are pretty close to what GM advertised. Desktop Dyno gave me 265HP @ 5500 & 246 HP at 6000, a stock '72 LT-1 is 255 HP @ 5600 RPM's. So I started playing around...I found that if...

If somebody wants to do the math, my LT-1 turns approx. 3k RPMS at 80 MPH in 4th...thats with the 3.55's & Muncie M20...

I was reinstalling my tank the other day & thought I'd share some tips for those of you how are gonna be removing/installing your tanks. I've read other posts where some guys placed jackstands or used jacks to lift the tank into place. I tried this & it was a pain in the butt...It gave me less...

I'd like to build a garage/large storage shed underneath my deck...as cheaply as possible. I'm not looking to have insulated, just dry. I have a 10x20' to work with & have about 8' of height. I need advice on how to waterproof under the deck. How do I keep it dry without building another roof...

I believe the CE is a warrenty replacment block, at some time the original engine must have been replaced. Where abouts in NH are you? I can't believe I missed this one...I can usually smell an LT-1 for sale a mile away. Do you have the tank sticker and/or have you looked for it? I will be...

Anybody here going to be at this one? This will be my first meet. The weather sounds like it's going to be awesome!

According to the NCRS Tech guide, you should have a RC-15 cap. The top is plated bright silver cadium. The cap should read "TURN RIGHT" & "REMOVE SLOWLY". You should see an AC logo in one circle & RC-15 in another circle (with symbols 15# and RC-15). If not concerened with originality, its...
