Amazing this issue hasn't generated a class action suit against GM by now. Somebody must have bought the farm as a result of these crappy, inadequate brakes sometime ago.

I thought the Performance Friction pads I installed on my '94 were no better, in fact worse when cold, than stock AC Delco.

Looking for a code scanner for '94 LT1

Who makes a good easy to use code scanner for a '94 LT1. I guess it's OBD1? 16 pins on the port. Don't want to pay a lot either.
Thanks.

Mobil1 gear oil is a consumer product and not quite as good as Mobil's Delvac 75W-90 synthetic which is more performance oriented. I'm still gun shy of any synthetic for my '94 though.

I have a '94 LT1 and from what I've read most OTC, over-the-counter, oils have been so dumbed-down lately. You really have to do your research to find a decent performing brand or product.

New Corvettes made in Mexico (hecho en Mexico?)

I just spoke with someone who owns a sporting goods store who insists the new Corvettes are made in Mexico. Is that true?

What GM parts are needed to convert std. '94 LT1 12" brakes to Heavy Duty Option 13"?

I guess the C4 to C5 conversion doesn't work without changing wheels. So, how about upgrading my '94 LT1's standard 12" brakes to the
13" heavy duty option that was available from GM. Do I just...
