[QUOTE="gdh, post: 250516, member: 2767"] What condition is the frame and birdcage? What oil pump is on? I have been running high pressure ones on my 383 strokers - one built for running 1/4’s in the early 2000’s and the GM ZZ383 (2014) came with one. The oil gauge reads just under 70 when I get on it and drops to @ 30 at idle which is consistent on both engines. Next time out I’ll make a note and let you know. Wow your clock actually works! It must have been redone as every original early C3 I’ve seen reads correctly only twice per day unless modified. if you need either good used or new parts I highly recommend both Santo at Caledon Corvette and James at Northern Corvette. Santo also has a fair sized shop with 3 hoists and large trailers full of parts. He’s btn Airport Rd and hwy 50 on hwy 9. James is in Thorold area. A word of caution, there is a Corvette new parts reseller located in Ontario that friends don’t let friends buy from. I’m located not too far from you in Orangeville. Good luck and post up pics and questions. Hopefully you can get the original Qjet rebuilt as they are great carbs when setup properly. [/QUOTE]
