What is the best way to remove the existing emblems off of the gas door and hood to install new Corvette emblems.

Or fishing line. A little heat from a hair dryer will help.

I had a 1990. The emblem is the graphic part contained within the round metal frame which had two threaded studs which went through the hood and gas lid and were fastened with acorn nuts. Or are you trying to remove the graphic(bow tie and checkered flag) from the metal piece itself?
There's a site called Vello's Vinyl which I think sells a decal which you can put over the existing one.

use a bit of tape to affix the nuts to your ratchet when reinstalling them. Have a magnetic retriever handy.
