Hey how do you find out what number your vette was made?
You're more than welcome. The last 4 numbers on your VIN are your production number.

Interesting. I was there for a few minutes and he didn't really have time to give the car a once over. The car will be there for a week next week.

Z Factor asked me to PM him cuz he knew of a LT5 expert here in town. So I am awaiting his response. Why do you think the injectors need replacing??

The tires are not the originals. They are new and only a few years old. I thought they hardened up cuz the car was buzzing like crazy today but after the balance job the car smoothed right out. One needed a few ounces and I had them check the pressure and balance before they didn't any new mods to the wheels. This to establish a starting point if any additional diagnostics were necessary. All the tires were between 15-21 lbs and the weights were all off by .5-2.0 ounces on each side of the wheels.

Can't wait to meet you my friend we have lots to discuss

They go out in all the 90-92s so if its got the original injectors they will need to be replaced.Those wheels are from a 91-92.Your cars a 90?

Whats a good replacement injector?

Yeap 1990, thats what was on the car. I stole it so I can't complain. I dont see these wheels very often especially in the 17x11.

The cam chains make some racket when the car sits for a short time,its normal.Some have found that with a Bosch filter and Amsoil gets rid of some of the racket.Ive got the Bosch filter,cant notice much of a change.

The top injectors are the RCs at about $1400? a set but replaced mine a few months ago with a set of Accels for $600.The Accels seem to be the most popular injector.

Already ordered the Amsoil tonight. Ordered new fuel and oil filters too think they were WIX brand Amsoil sells.
