Default Hello from Prescott, ON

Hello Everyone,

My name it Tony and we live in Prescott, ON. I would like you to know that I am working on a project where I could use some Corvette knowledge from those in the know.

1. I am looking for a Corvette (C5) used parts supplier near Prescott, ON (However, while doing online searches I keep finding them in the USA and not here in Canada near me.)

2. I need to find a used Corvette C5 differential for an Automatic. (At this time I don't know which ratio. But as I move forward in the project I will know what ratio will work the best. Anyways, I rather find a contact now that will be able to provide one, while I have more time on my hands waiting for the snow and cold weather to be gone, over waiting until the point in the project that I need the C5 diff and I end up spending too much time locating one that it puts a stop to the project.)

3. I also could also use some help finding a vendor for (2) 930 inner flanges for the C5... (FYI - I want to compare pricing and availability to GForce and The Driveshaft Shop. So far I found out that The Driveshaft Shop is $145 more per flange. This might be nice to know if anyone else is looking..)

As for my project. It is an odd ball!! Link below..
The only three things it has in common with a Corvette is an LS 6.0lt, C5 Diff and the inner CVs switch to the 930 style.
Please feel free to check out my odd build project. I like to be different than the rest.
Ultravan Build Project

Thank you for your help in this matter.
Sincerely, Tony (in Prescott, ON)
