I used to have this Corvette. It was sooooo fast, but every other day something went wrong with it. Do you swapers find that to be the case? can you tell the car wasn't meant to have that engine in it? Oil leaks, bad idle, rough starts, other odd problems you might have? I was just curious. I'd also Love to see some time slips and Dyno runs. I was over at Newcelica.org looking at their dyno charts and time slips and was kinda disgusted.
So,I asked. Thanks Jon |

My car has trouble starting right up too. If it has not been run for a few days it likes to not start right up. my 5s never did that? after the 3s starts up it idles bad for about 5-6 seconds and then is all good. dont know why thta happens.
other than that i am happy with the big difference it made. and i hope nothing is bad with the engine since i dont know how it was driven b4 i got it. mainly hoping that the engine was not beat on by the previous owner????? dg --------------------  |
