    Just came across your channel,i have a 93 C4 and I replaced my emblems.The easiest way too remove them was with a heat gun and plastic scraper.After you get it off I used rubbing alcohol to clean all the adhesive off.Love your C4 by the way.

      I'm 34 just bought a 1985 c4 about 3 months ago. I've had to put about 800 in parts because the last owners didn't properly upkeep it. Great news is with these cars the value goes up the more you put into it.. good luck to you! If you can save cash and pay upfront instead of taking a loan. My car was $7,000 I got a loan. If I make my payments for 4 years I'll pay $13,000 so I'm paying my loan off in advance.

    Nice video bro. I picked up an 84 Corvette recently. It's riding a little rough and I think there could be an exhaust leak and might need the catalytic converters replaced. Sometimes it smells a little bad in the cabin when i drive. Have u had any exhaust issues on your corvette?

    That air foil is a waste of money man and switch to a regular air filter cause the oils from the k&n will eventually ruin your maf! There’s a fine wire inside of it that reads the air coming in that the oil will coat as it flows by and eventually throw it off or just kill it. These mafs are super sensitive and the aftermarket ones are never tuned right! The only decent replacement is an original GM and is specific to your year. Just a heads up

    • @Michael_Lorenson
      @Michael_Lorenson 4 роки тому

      I agree about avoiding K&N-type oiled air filters. I also think it's likely that the common airbox mod is a mistake. The Corvette's under hood airflow was designed in a wind tunnel, by engineers who did it for a living. To assume they were stupid just doesn't seem fair.

    • @ReynoldsRides
      @ReynoldsRides  4 роки тому

      The air foil is not a waste of money. Here is proof: www.superchevy.com/how-to/engines-drivetrain/ghtp-1304-dyno-testing-7-popular-lt1-engine-modifications. I disagree about the oiled filter. I’ve never had an issue and issues can be avoided with routine cleaning/maintenance of the MAF.

    consider getting some led lights for the hood, with led lights you can leave your hood lights on for hours without killing the battery. www.superbrightleds.com/cat/vehicle-lights/ also yous locktight on the bolt hold the tb airfoil in or your engine may swallow the bolt.
