Tech articles
Hi all
JohnZ has generously sent to me six more tech articles that he had written to add to my website's Tech Articles page.
The articles vary in subject matter from back-up lights to swapping intakes, swapping radiators, rear leaf springs, installing rivets and more.
There may be more coming yet................
once again, if you find a need for any useful tech articles feel free to help yourself and give a silent thanks to all the great authors of these articles, JohnZ and all the others, who generously allow us to make use of their experience and knowledge.

I give you 5 stars for you time and effort. Many of us really do appreciate the work you and John Z have done. Pretty soon there won't be a need for open forum questions, you will be able to look it up and find the answers. Great Job!

thanks guys, I appreciate all the kind words and I'm very glad that many of you utilize the tech articles section of my website - after all that's what i made it for, but really the thanks goes to JohnZ, Lars, and all the other many authors of the tech papers for sharing their knowledge, not to me, as I'm only putting them up on a website - that's easy

What a great resource Barry!
Excellent to have all those tech articles in the same place for reference!
Just curious where you got the video of the idling C2? I thought I recognized the background, and then when I saw the unusual (for you guys) stop sign and the guy's plate, BINGO!

As Stated ..Excellent Web Site Barry. I have used your site for some info from the Experts.
One suggestion if not already made would be a Sitcky Thread Posted here at the top of the Corvette Forum for New Members to link to the article. This would also benefit members here who could also direct link to your site.
Of course any article pertaining to C-3 etc would also have it's sticky on that Corvette section.
So...maybe an email to the Corvette Forum Power's is in order...
Again..Thank you for taking the time to advance our hobby.

thanks Mark for the kind words.
if the CF "powers that be" decided that there would be a benefit to a sticky thread that included a link to my tech articles page than I would have no problems with that if they wished to create one.
i have noticed many times that members have asked questions and other members have referred them to my website to look for the answers so perhaps your suggestion would be a useful thing to do if the moderators choose to do so.
BTW, i just got word tonight that more articles are due in from JohnZ over the next few days again so as soon as I get them I'll get them added up onto the site......

FYI
John sent me 6 more articles and they are now posted up. Inn addition, another forum member also sent me an article. That's 13 new tech articles added to the site in the last week!
I hope you find them useful and can utilize them if/when the time comes that you are working on your car.
Enjoy
