Hello everyone, I bought a C5 corvette off of craigslist a while back and it ended up having a bad motor. So i am joining the forums to gather information as I do my rebuild.
This is my first corvette and I am having a blast with it so far.

Welcome and good luck with the rebuild. The members in the C5 sections should be able to give you some good recommendations/advice.

Thanks everyone. Have the parts ordered for the rebuild and the new supercharger kit on the way! Going to have to sell my old kit to try and pay for some of this!

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your C5; but it's a bummer you already have to rebuild it.
Best wishes with your efforts. Sounds like it'll be a real powerhouse with the SC.
