Helpful hints wanted
I'm new to this forum and wanted to know how to change my thermostat to a lower temp. I already found out I can't get under my car to change(to low) the oil.
Since this is my first corvette I have to learn hands on like my vehicles.
Appreciated in advance.

Welcome to the forum.
1. get some rhino ramps to get under the car.
2. A lower thermo is not going to do anything for you unless you have the fans come on at a lower temp. You do not need to get under the car to do the thermo. It is on the passanger side almost at the top.
Good luck and enjoy the toy.

For the oil, get a set of Rhino Ramps, a floor jack, some jacking pucks, and jack stands and you will be ready to go. I do my own oil changes and it is not that difficult.

Also, find some local members to help you at first. I'm sure they can/will show you some short cuts and tricks.
