I know that the '99 Hardtops didn't offer sport seats as an option. I am looking at buying this particular model. My question is, are the sport seats in the C5s self-contained? That is, can they simply be swapped in for the regular seats? My old C4 had the lumbar adjustments and other controls on...

Can anyone access the forum?

Hi All, Quick question: After modifying the ignition system, is there any logical method or rule of thumb for changing the factory-recommended spark plug gap? Engine in question is an '86 Corvette 350cid V8 engine with TPI, HEI ignition, headers, high voltage coil, "performance" 8mm plug...

I have an '86 Vette automatic. Over the last year, about once a week, my lights in my dash would go out and come back on in 1-3 seconds. Never long enough to cause any problems and not long enough to find the problem. Well, drove the car to work today and it rained. Don't know if that makes...

I'm having an intermittent ignition coil problem with the #5 cylinder on my 99 LS1 where I keep setting codes PO305 and PO355. I have replaced the entire bank of coils, the individual spark plug wire and spark plug itself yet the problem doesn't want to go away. What happens is that the car will...

Can this float be patched? Any ideas as to what to use? Can just the float be purchased? Gary

I will be looking to purchase a 1999-2001 soon. Upgrading from my 10.5 year daily driver '89 with 150K on it. Looking for an automatic, non-covertible, and want the HUD as well. Hopefully well under 50K on it. What are the problem areas to look for between '99 and '01? Any huge differences in...

Well that didn't go well, the dealer still has the C6. We were close on the money but I wouldn't give and walked away. The salesman that was talking to my girl friend before he found out it was ordered for me told her the C6 would blow away the C5. That just isn't so, and it is so close to my CE...

'71 - what else should I look at, check or do while I have the dash completely gutted? Pulled dash/console to replace stereo, speakers, ammeter, tach-needle. and tach/speedo cables. Then I remembered the heater was bypassed years ago by a previous owner - so took out the heater box...

Hi I have just brought a 2001 convertible corvette and want to change the stock radio. I live in the UK and so this is not a common car here. I have looked on the US web sites and there does not seem to be an adaptable cable for the car, and some sites state that I will lose some speakers.

My Haynes manual says "refer to the under hood sticker" for base timing settings for an '86 Vette but I don't have it. What is the base timing setting for an '86 Vette? TIA, Jim

I saw them advertised and was wondering if anyone had experience with them Mike

Where my hood support attaches to the hood on the left side something bad happened. My guess is that while it was up either the wind or someone leaning against it partially cracked the inner fiberglass of the hood and pushed the hood support mounting plate partially into the fiberglass hood. The...
