Corvette Specialties
I am new to this website and just thought I would post a hello thread and also pose a question to anyone that lives or uses Corvette Specialties in Surrey British Columbia. I have just had over 9 thousand dollars in repairs there in the last month on my 1991 Corvette. I was just wondering what are people's thoughts about them.
Thankyou, and I hope to help you guys out with questions in the future.
Cheers!

Head gasket blew, and once they took apart the top end, new discoveries of a worn down cam, lifters, timing chain and so on. Right after I got these problems repaired my Dual Mass flywheel decided to go, so had to drop a couple more grand for a clutch assembly and DMF.
