C5 Advice
I'm considering buying a C5 and I'm looking at a 98 with headers, cat back exhaust, and Lingenfelter GT12 cam. I have not looked at the car in person. I wanted to see what everyone thinks of this cam as far as driveability on a daily basis. The car is a 6 speed and relatively low miles. If I purchased it, a supercharger (Procharger D1SC) would be in its future, so how well would this cam work with the supercharger? Thanks for the advice.

Buy what your gut tells you. Auto manufactures are required by law
to make parts for their cars for only 10 years. After market parts
are always available. Good luck.

EBCM's changed in 2001 not 2000. The 2000 and earlier EBCM has not been available in many years and it is not just the EBCM that is no longer availabe new if needed. The Steering Wheel Position Sensor is also NLA.
NO ONE makes an aftermarket EBCM or SWPS for the 97 - 2000 C5 despite what ROAD PILOT implies.
And none of this addresses the original question from the Thread Starter.......

This guy is 100% correct. Ask me how I know. My SWPS is dead on my 00 and I've been scouring the internet looking for a replacement.

I have a 00 and bought a spare (new) SWPS GM 26058287 Position Sensor for Cadillac Seville ( 98 & 99 mod) This SWPS has the same wiring and same signals according to my manual . It also looks 100% the same when I compare it with a old spare Corvette 00 SWPS (26058286).
