I've been on this forum for almost three years now and i have finally woken up. Of all the other forums here i find this one is where i belong. Seems to me a easier bunch of guys frequent here, more helpful and less critical of others. I don't see flaming and sarcasm, just a bunch of guys that love Vettes and are glad to help other owners. I guess it took my latest find to wake me up to reality. Thanks to all of you who answered my posts and the rest just for being here. your information is accurate and informative. glad to be here. This is the way it was when i got my first Vette in 59, and the way it should be.

This is by far the best forum on the internet. I have not spent a whole lot of time in the other sections, but I do know that the C3 sections have a lot of knowledgeable folks in them.

Welcome to the C3 Section.

I think you'll find that as long as you're not a smart a$$ most of the regular guys here won't be either.

But don't push us...

Hell, even the C1-2 guys come over here and ask engine questions.
