Exactly! When you bust one open and see all the o-rings vs. the old cork or gooey gaskets, you'll really see the difference. They just don't get the leaks like the Gen I's do. That and the LS...

I took my neighbor Amanda out for a ride for her birthday today. I tried scaring her, but I guess at 101 years old you've seen it all! Really got on it at 2:45 sec. mark.

Enjoy! :thumbs:

poly bushings disintegrating

I have an '82 Vette that I hardly drive anymore. I've probably put 8,000 miles on the car in 10 years I've owned it, and probably less then 100 in the past 3 years. The car spends all of its time...
