Default 1992 LT1 rev limiting 3000 rpms

Hey there, I’m a younger guy and I just bought my 1992 corvette. It has some problems though. It idles in park at about 2000 rpms and rev limits at 3000 rpms. It’s not like a bog down it’s more like a wall it hits. It sat for a while, looking for solutions.

I'd start with reading all your ecm codes first and see what that reveals.

Most problems on the LT1 are related to the optispark. It's easy to fix... just replace the Optispark with a quality unit. Be sure the pay carfull attention to the connector and pigtail on the opti, it's super long so its easy to bend the pins.
