Default C5 technical overview thread?

I'm just purchasing a C5 after selling my 1971 LT-1, and I'm keen to get an overview of the technical issues that might affect the car. A few days ago I found a thread on (I think) this website which was an excellent multi-page description of the car's technical issues, but like a fool I didn't bookmark it since I was looking for something else and only later realised that this was too good a chance to let go begging. Now, wouldn't you know it, I can't find the thread again.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Thanks

Tony.
