Hi! My name's Jayke and I'm from California originally but now I'm in Dallas attending college. Basically a little about who I am goes as follows. I'm 18 years old and I've been an avid Corvette enthusiast for as long as I can remember. My mom bought a Corvette brand new in 1990 which she recently gave to me for my 18th birthday/graduation. The old Vette is having some issues now and does not run

. Also I was looking at purchasing an 06-10 Z06 so any help would be appreciated. If there are any members in the Dallas-Fort Worth or Inland Empire area that would like to hang out or whatnot feel free to PM me.

Thanks,
Jayke

Welcome Jayke (that's a pretty good forum name!) Do you think you can get the 90 running?

I think I can with a little hard work. What I think happened is the #2 cylinder got cracked or a piston ring sheared because the tech at the dealership reported coolant in the block so im not sure whether im going to try to salvage the motor or see if i can get my hands on a new short block/LT1 ZR1 motor.
