Does anyone feel like giving an opinion of value for this car? I have a friend who would like to aquire it. I think it would be a ton of fun if purchased for a reasonable $. Had it up on a hoist. The frame and birdcage look really good. Engine crisp. Aftermarket hood. ALL the mechanicals for...

Most likely the shifter is out of adjustment or a shift rod bushing is worn/gone. Look up the shifter set up procedure and use a 1/4 bolt as the set up tool through the shifter body. Make sure the shift rod bushings are in good condition/not missing. You'll be glad you did - the shifter will...

So I decided to change my frame last year. The old one had some cracks. It could have been repaired but my buddy Dan had a real nice one that he had perimiter welded and powder coated so I bought it to use. I had wanted to install an lsx style engine for some time. So I figured that it...

I'd look very closely at 5.5 back space for a stock frame even with offset trailing arms

Got my '03 6.0L in my 65 Corvette running a couple of weeks ago, starts and runs great - everything works the way it's 'sposed to. So far. Check eng lite, drive by wire throttle... I'm getting the details sorted out, set the toe on the rear wheels last nite and a couple other things. Out there...

With a larger wheel diameter looks are secondary. The whole purpose of larger wheels is better handling because of the shorter sidewall but the same overall diameter of the wheel tire assembly. Why do just about all production vehicles have 16's 17's 18's and larger? Todays technology. Saying...

I love that video. Watched it through a couple of times. The old VL's are too cool.

I think the solution for this situation is to have slip fit wheel bearings, when you need to access the e-brakes just losen the big nut, slide the spindle out, do the work, the tighten 'r back up to 100Ft lbs. Easy for me to say....

OK, here's a question. I've not had a DBW vehicle before.. I've got the 6.0L all wired up in my Corvette now... So if I put power to it, turn on the key, should the throttle valve in the throttle body operate with the foot feed even if the thing isn't running? It would be interesting to see if...

Good deal AJ. Was this the same trans shop that perfomed the work before? Maybe they felt guilty about something :smash:

Does anyone have an opinion on minimum requirement for battery Cold Cranking Amps for my LQ4? The battery placement in my '65 Corvette is quite compact so I need the smallest battery that will work. Of course the smaller the batt, the less available cca's. The car will not be run in too cold of...

I've seen evidence of prices coming down. Not here........ http://www.proteam-corvette.com/cars/1029B.htm http://www.proteam-corvette.com/cars/1030B.htm Projects? Holy crap.

How does that thing bolt in? Stock removable cross member mounts? I can't tell from the pic.
