Sold! To the first person that made it here to see it. I'm sure going to miss her, but the new owner is going to have some fun! Always nice to sell something like this to good people.

Good eye mardyn! The factory setup for cold air induction on a 76 L-82 is a single snorkel over the radiator. It's effective for the stock engine, but simply couldn't flow enough air to support...

Re: C4 YES--------C5 NO (theandies)

Don't forget that C5s are far more often being used as regular drivers. When I'm in my C3, I'm usually not doing anything else and I wave.
But my Z06 is my daily driver, and I'm often in some...

Re: Dynomax Cerama-Coat Headers for my 75, your thoughts? (Scudd)

I like 'em. Good choice for the money. I did fab up some spacers for my current AC bracket (had to be about 1" and 1 1/2" long, so I turned them out of aluminum bar stock on a lathe. There are AC...

Re: (OT)What's the downside to using Rain-X on your windshield? (Love My 72 and 77)

I've used Rain-X on all of my cars for the last 20 years. I agree that the Rain-x washer fluid is a great way to keep a fair amount of it on your windshield in daily drivers without much effort, but...

JMI Crankshafts

Anybody heard of JMI? Any info would be helpful. I've got one of these as part of a deal (for a 406), but I have never heard of them.

1) If I go with an internally balanced crank, can I keep my stock diameter damper?
