Welcome brutha! I see you have the bug. Go to your local pharmacy and ask for a new tigershark front end. That will be a temporary cure. It will wear off in a couple of months whereas you will need to purchase a new cam.

Welcome. You will get lots more moding ideas around here so be careful. Let us see some pics of your vette and fill in your profile information so we will know where you are (never hurts to find other Vette enthusiasts in your area to share ideas and cruises with).

You are obviously a total gearhead,,,,,you will fit right in here!!! There are many gearheads here (probably a majority) along with a lot of "waxers" (a large minority) and a lot of ones who do both!! As stated with your mods it's kind of surprising that you haven't been here before now!!! WELCOME:chee rs:
