2015 Corvette Z06 vs Lamborghini LP570-4 Super Trofeo Stradale Street Racing

A Lamborghini Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradale takes on the new 2015 Corvette Z06 on the road. The video shows two races between the Z06 and the Lamborghini, with entirely different results. The Lamborghini has the advantage of all-wheel drive, while the Z06 is rear-wheel drive only. If the Z06 spins it tires, as it did in the second race, the Lamborghini will easily get the jump it needs.

1984 Corvette Starter Replace (bit of a knuckle buster)

NOTE: Factory Service Manual provides a “slightly” different procedure. NO “SHIMS” were needed, new starter fit perfectly. Having never changed out a starter on a 84 Vette before, I TOOK MY TIME , about 1/12 hours, to remove the old one and install the new one. Now I could do it again no problem. OEM AC Delco replacement starter from Eckler’s Corvette. Before attempting this job, I would suggest…

1984 Corvette Crossfire "Twin" Idle Air Control Valves

1984 Corvette Crossfire “Twin” Idle Air Control Valves

Per the Factory Service Manual…these two IAC valves can create a lot of idle issues both cold and hot. The Electronic Control Module set these BWD Brand IAC’s, they did not need to be adjusted, after I installed them, the car ran great, I drove the car up to 40+ MPH and let the ECM do the rest.

1984 Corvette Manifold Heat Riser (stove pipe) & Damper Doors

Car starts then stalls???? Possible Thermac system issue? The **VERY UNIQUE** 1984 Corvette relies on HEAT off the manifold to run/idle properly during warm up. Per the FSM, this is the first place to start looking for problems. The Damper Doors not working properly…cause a lot of problems. The thermostatic air breather assembly works off heat from manifold from cold start-up. My driver side…

From the video author: I did a basic coolant flush by disconnecting the lower radiator hose, rinsing out the reservoir, and overflow tank. I also put in a 160 degree thermostat, bypassed a leaking heater core and the throttle body.

1995 C4 Corvette Restoration: Maiden Run after 4 years. – Pt 4

After diagnosing the problem to no fuel pressure, I replaced the fuel pump. One lesson learned is not to spray it down with degreaser then spray it off before debugging the car. However, I was able to find some disconnected vacuum lines in the process.

How to change the heater core in a 1990-1996 C4 Corvette

This is how to change the heater core in a 1990 – 1996 C4 Corvette without pulling the dash. Now that I have done the job, I can say that it would be much easier if you remove the secondary fuse block and the radio receiver from under the dash. Removing those are required for reinstall and it would make removal a ton easier.

1984 Corvette Thermac Air Cleaner Base to Throttle Body Gaskets

The most Misunderstood and Overlooked part of the Crossfire Injection Engine…in my opinion, the Thermac. It would be easy to OVERLOOK these two gaskets because they seem somewhat insignificant. The Thermostatic Air Cleaner System (per the ***FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL**) is one of the first places to start looking when you have start up and idle issues. Very different than other vehicles, this is a…
