    Question Rochester Quadrajet rebuild

    Rebuilding a Quadra jet is pretty basic, there are rebuild kits available from most of the suppliers. If the carb has been on the car and running not too badly about all they need is a new accelerator plunger and a clean up. The big problem with them is that the throttle shafts wear in the bore...

    C3 transmission crossmember

    68 - 72 Corvettes with a manual trans all had weld in cross members but if someone converted an automatic to a manual trans the car could have a bolt in cross member. I have seen a 68 that was an automatic converted to manual trans, they had cut the top of the trans tunnel to get the shifter to...

    My C3 died again

    My bet is that it is the seat belt, key, headlight on warning buzzer. When this unit fails the buzzer may not sound but the circuit still draws power even if the lights are off, the key is out and the seat belts are not connected. It is plugged into the fuse box under the driver's side dash. You...

    Looking for C3 mechanic Vancouver Island

    I'm in Victoria and help other Vette owners with their cars. I only work on the C3's. I picked up an 80 Vette a couple of years ago and have been slowly getting it ship shape in my spare time, LOL It seems that the heater cores in the cars in the 80's are susceptible to failing as I know of an...

    Rear brake line

    I just checked my 80 and it looks like you might have to release the body mounting bolts and then lift the body up a bit so you could get a wrench in there. I just put a new brake line on the bare frame of the 72 that I am doing a frame off on. The new brake line had to be massaged quite a bit...
