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.....

Welcome and congrats on getting your first Corvette. Hope it gives you many miles of driving pleasure.

Post up any general questions in the C4 General section and if you have some tech questions on the car, the members that frequent the C4 Tech section should be able to help you out.
