Default another new guy....

Well, I am going to introduce myself...

I am Chase...

No, I dont own a Vette, but, i spend a bit of time working on one for a close friend..

I am just a gear head, grew up around engines, under cars, etc...

Currently, an Active Duty Navy, single father(recently divorced, and won full custody), just trying to get by,....

So, been searching here since Friday/Saturday, and, going to head into the C4 forum to pick some brains...

I am not a rookie.. just not completely up to speed with vette's... except for parts shared by the F-bodies..

Thanks in advance for all your patience...

Chase

First, thanks for the welcome...

I belong to alot of forums, and like the think, that I provide more help than I receive...

Here, that will not be the case, since, as mentioned, I am not familiar with the...nuances of these.... cars..

Hopefully, with a little help, I will be able to get the problems solved on this thing, and get it out of my driveway, so I can finish some of MY personal projects...

Anyway, again, thanks for the welcome, and thanks in advance, for any and all help...

Chase
