I had a mechanic tell me that some C4's left the factory with out Posi rear ends. I thought all C4s were posi standard, am I wrong?

Fast, your mechanic better never even look at your Vette.

Is he an alcoholic?

I said "a mechanic" not my mechanic, lol. I was in Jacksonville, FL. and went to a buddies house then to look at '61 survivor car that had burnt. This mechanic is a good one in his own right even if he doesnt know the Corvette as well as he boasts. I doubt I will have anything done by him, I just wanted to check and I have never seen any reference to anything but posi units. Anyway, thanks for backing me up, thats what this board is for, the information highway! Its back to 'Bama and 40 years into the past.
