zeitgeist57 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 WIFE SEZ FIX IT OR SELL IT!!! I have (or will have) all the parts to replace headers, Optispark, waterpump, gaskets, etc...to do a rotating assembly rebuild and replacement of cracked cast iron manifolds. I have been working piecemeal on it, but my work/family schedule has been berzerk since early May. The 'Vette has been gathering dust and my wife is starting to lose it...ultimatum is coming by the end of this month if I don't make serious progress. Please PM me if you can reserve some time on Saturday, June 26th to come to my house, drink beer, eat Taco Bell/Pizza/Raising Canes, use my tools, and HELP ME fix this thing!!! My wifey will be out of town, so I plan on spending most of the day working on it... FYI, car is my 1995 LT1 6-speed Corvette with 90k miles on it. Thanks! :thumbup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitgeist57 Posted June 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 She's right, though...it needs to be driven...it needs to be fixed or I should just get rid of it. I 100% want to keep it. Need some help to fix it in a day instead of a little bit at a time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitgeist57 Posted June 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Thanks everyone! PM me for directions. I'll look to get started after Cars and Coffee. Matt, in FL I had a Nitrous Express wet kit with a full 20lb tank...never installed it because I never had the balls to. Bought it new with a fill-up for $425, sold it a year later untouched for $400. This was back when the economy was booming in south FL, btw.
