Indiana fun stuff
Hello all, I'm Josh. Just wanted to get started here, I've been around for about 6 months researching. I had a C5 while in the Army and now I have a C4. Looking to make a streetable track car... If that makes sense. I'd like to do some track days from time to time, but mainly just a light, quick semi daily / weekend driver. Shooting for sub 2700# and ~400-450 rwhp and the reason I picked the C4 is I'd like to do it all under 10k. I'm leaning towards an LS1/2/3/6 swap, if I can find a wrecked car for a steal. The corvette I picked up was a 92 6 spd with 100k for under 3k. I'm hoping I can get a large part of that back if I sell some of the stuff I take out to get the weight down, including the LT/SF6. Needs paint and some tuning up, but runs and drives.

So, a few quick things, this isn't the perfect thread for it, but since it's my starter, have mercy. The codes I get when jumping A and G are as follows:
1. C25, C72, H25, H72
4. H41
9. H83
I have looked all those up, and it doesn't seem that those point me in the direction of my rough running issues. From my research, the 92's aren't very helpful with diagnostics due to limited computing ability. So the previous owner told me the opti is new, as well as plugs and wires (verified). My first thought given it's speed density and no MAF, is to change the IAC and see if that helps. Any other pointers on problem sensors on a 24 year old car? TPS, MAP, etc? Here's a video the guy sent before I picked it up of it idling.
Also, where is a good place to look up all my options based on my sticker in the center console? They are as follows, if for no other reason then to get them online and off the sheet of paper I wrote them on.
