Hello guys. I have been a Corvette junkie since my first Vette Hotwheel about 700 years ago...haha. I just turned the big 50 and my wife said I should finally buy my dream car. My kids are all grown and I had money saved so I finally bought my first Vette. I have had close to 300 cars since I was 18 and still have a bunch of muscle cars but never bought myself a Vette. I always thought it irresponsible due to it only having two seats and not an every season car since I live in the Black Hills South Dakota. Well, I was looking at a 1990 ZR1 and I decided after research not to get it, then I was looking at a 2005 Z06 but it sold 30 min before he called me back even though I emailed him threee days prior. I have always loved the look of the C4’s so I found a real nice Red 95 with 40,000 original miles and bought. I love the color red so my first Vette had to be red. Now I just need to pop in the Prince CD....Haha. Anyway I have some questions about the LT1 engine since I have never owned a car with the newer LT1. Lots of LS, Big-block, Small-block and one Tuned Port Injected but no newer LT1’s. I will hit you guys up in the appropriate question and answer forums. Now off to those.....
