r/c4corvette

When I bought my ‘94 a couple of years ago, I thought it was cool that it had an SLP Tri-Flow air intake. Now however, that I’ve found out that this product is discontinued, was wondering if anyone has suggestions on what air filters I can use as a replacement, or should I convert back to the stock air intake?

I need to replace the fuel pump and have the whole module from AC Delco minus the pump. But I can't seem to find a fuel pump anywhere. Everyone I find is plagued with horrible reviews.

Hello everyone, I have a 1987 Corvette with an L98 which I’ve refreshed recently, added a new paint job, resurfaced heads, head gaskets, etc, It’s completely redone

Now that I’m done engine-wise, I’m getting her ready to hit the road. But now, the other problems that have been lingering are starting to come up.

One of which being my dash cluster. The RPM screen lights up when I turn the key to “ON” but then dies and shows nothing at all. I checked my distributor and the TACH wire is attached, but I realized the tach filter wasnt grounded, so I grounded it to the rear of the head on the passenger side, should be good now, but still the same result. RPM’s don’t show. I think it might be the actual wire going into the distributor that might be bad so I’ll have to test it.

And now ontop of that, my oil pressure reads “LO” nonstop. It doesn’t change or go up. Should be an easy fix, I bent one of the prongs on the pressure sensor but bent it back to place and thought it’d be okay, I guess it wasn’t..

And the 3rd problem would what I assume to be either the O2 Sensor, IAC valve or the TPI sensor. The RPM’s on my engine after about 2 seconds of being on goes significant up, how much, I couldn’t tell you. ( rpm’s not showing ) But it is very noticeable. I did some tests, and after removing the IAC valve the engine no longer surged and ran actually, pretty good

So most likely a bad IAC, but I’ve also heard that after adding an IAC you need to do some sort of reset? I don’t know the specifics but I’ll have to look more into it

And the icing to the very disgusting cake is my dash cluster, again. Some of the numbers like the coolant temp are just completely indistinguishable. You can’t read what it says, some of the sticks in the numbers aren’t showing, I’ve found that pressing the screen a bit helps kinda see it but not really. And the screen on my RPM’s is completely cracked but still lights up. And that’s about it…

A nice long list of problems. Oh, and I forgot to add that since I painted the engine block it’s smoking all around while it bakes, which adds to the fear. But yeah, if anyone would be able to point me in the right direction or give any advice on anything here It would be extremely appreciated. It’s been very frustrating and I’m just really hoping it isn’t as bad as Im making it out to be. I know it was allot, so if you did, thank you for reading! Have a great day!

TLDR; Engine surges shortly after startup, RPM’s not showing on dash, oil pressure constantly on “LO” and numbers not being displayed clearly on dash.

So I did it i bought a c4 1996 lt4 manual. Any disclaimers ,advice or mod/tuning stuff people want to share?

Car is currently running very well. The suspension is up next and then it’s the interior. It has all the issues you’d expect from a 192,000 ‘85, but since it was a daily driver for so long there was a lot done over the years, AC is 134 and the seats are in great shape so I’m optimistic that after fuel, braking, cooling and now suspension that working my way through the switches, motors, carpet, panels and audio is likely to get me something I genuinely enjoy driving,

But after contemplating all the 40 year old plastic on the interior I’m starting to question whether chasing all the squeaks and rattles is a rabbit hole I ever come back from.

Anyone gone down that path?

Looking forward to cam my vette but I can't seem to find any information on the engine do you have a way of knowing that or do I need to find casting numbers somewhere ? Plz help
