    GM's V8 Production Down by Half - Should Next Gen Corvette Adopt a V6 to Keep Up with the Times?

    I tend to agree with ''OFFER BOTH''. Problem is, we ere still operating under GOVERNMENT MOTORS. And it would not surprise me one bit to see CORVETTE become its own car company. It then would have to produce a few models to stay alive. Look at the MIATA. Over 1,000,000 made since the original in...

    59 Temp gauge problem

    I think you are getting close to the problem. Clean up those terminals with baking soda or a battery clean up spray from your parts store. A light dressing of grease will keep the oxidation low in the future.

    corvette cyl. heads "power pack" from 1960-67

    Back in 1964, a good friend drag raced his 1963 Bel Air, 2 door with the 327/250hp and a 4 speed. He was in G/S as I remember, because the car was rated at 250hp. He ran very close to the more powerfull 327/300hp Chevies time and mph wise, so that old WCFB carb at 450cfm was the only hold back...
