1981 Corvette pulls to the right
Just finishing up my 1981 Corvette. Drove it on the road for the first time last week. The car pulls to the right when you let go of the steering wheel. Pulls bad in my opinion. Everything on the front and rear suspension is new. I had a 4 wheel alignment done recently.
Is this normal or should I take it back to the alignment shop? I guess I am wondering if this is just a characteristic of pressure building up in the slave cylinder?

C3 pulling to the right
Have you centered the power steering valve? If this adjustment is not correct it could make the car pull as you have described. Directions for centering the valve should be in any C3 repair manual, and it only takes a few minutes, very easy do do. Other things that would cause the pulling would be alignment off, bad tire, difference in right and left tire pressures, sticking brake caliper etc. I would center the power steering valve if all the easier things have been already checked. Good luck.
