Finished installing Viper alarm system to replace dead aftermarket system. The dash is back together and in the right position, siren run into engine compartment, and antenna placed properly. I didn't install the starter disable because I didn't want to mess with the VATS. I learned a lot about what's under the dash on the driver's side and more about how to get through the firewall than I ever wanted to know. Next up is the seats.

Well? Inquiring minds want to know. What and how did you end up resolving it?
Perhaps step by step procedures?

Easier to remove the radiator to access that waterpump. As for the serpentine belt, there is a procedure as I recall which is relatively easy. Been awhile, just know it took me about 15 min.

Consultation on Corvette Forum of course. Maybe I should call it counseling. You all are the best at what we do.

Very cool.

Bot a 1984 Corvette, with an unknown tranny problem 2 months ago.

Repaired the tranny, which had a detached anchor on the 2-4 band, causing the slipping , causing the no second condition. On blocks, the tranny seemed to shift ok.

3-4 clutches had a little burning on them.

Replaced:
Most bushings
Most seals
Reverse input drum (cupped surface)
Sun shell (old one looked ok, but installed the beast anyway)
3-4 clutches and steels with the Red Eagle Altos.

Didn't mess with the torque converter, pump or throttle body, everything looked really clean inside.

All the other frictions appeared new, so I left them as is.

I did all the work myself with help from youtube videos.

Goes nice down the road, need to solve a few more things before I license/insure it. Seat belt is stuck, can't pull it out, saw the write up here.

Car looks and sounds pretty good in the dark.
I need to buy a bra to cover some peeling paint on the nose.

Got about $2200 in the car now, and I learned quite a bit.
Good experience so far...

Regards,

Ken

PS It would be cool to sell this and pick up a LT1 car with a bad 4L60E to rebuild.

Most recently? C4 helps me to learn powder coating.







Yeah, I should have masked the EGR.

Use the fiberglass heat tape on all machine surfaces. It cuts to shape easily with a razor blade.

Bought a dust cover from Amazon since I'm starting in on a lot of woodworking nowadays. I get tired of dusting my car all the time. Driving less these days, but still a lot of good Vette weather in the Northwest.

Over the weekend I had my new 275/40/17 Nitto 555R's installed on all 4 corners, installed new door sill carpet I purchased from a forum member, and installed a new Optima red top battery...95 vert. Finished up with a detail and short drive. The carpet looks great and matches new molded floor mats nicely. And the Nitto 555R's ride amazingly. I was shocked how much of a difference they made in ride quality. They handle great and ride smooth. Best quality for the money IMHO. I've never had Nittos before and don't know the difference between 555's and the 555R's but I'm very happy with the r's.

Six cylinder or are you modified??

Had to be a 6 cylinder. Ain't no way a 13.6 sec or 13.7 C4 is gonna whip a 2015 Gen 4 or Gen 5 V8 ? (Not sure on that)

My brother's 2012 GT with a tune and exhaust was running 12.7's a little faster than us haha.

Confab:
