Re: What is the best front end bra for the 1995 C4? (Bluewasp)

Bluewasp:

My front end was painted in October 2002, so I believe the paint has had a chance to harden up by now.

What brand was your bra?

Re: How often for tuneup on 95 LT1? (WhiteHorse)

Re: Do you open the doors when you jack up the car? (Curtis629)

The body is torsionally much stiffer with the doors closed and the top on.

Re: Does any one run 40 profile tires? (LTDan73)

You're right. They are 40's... I knew that. Must have been a senior moment.

Re: Can your AC make your car faster? (Aman)

I had heard that the AC robs you of 25 HP. I believe it too. Have you noticed the significant drop in rpm when the compressor is turned on? I doubt it would be so noticeable if it was only 5 HP. ...

Re: where is my fuel filter at on my car? (C4Fetish)

I bought the tubing wrench at Sears.

It is 5/8" at one end of the wrench and 11/16" at the other end.
