The fact that you describe cylinder shutoff as a desirable feature tells me all I need to know about you.

The quality and information in this video are insane. I know nothing about cars mechanically, but the video was just way too entertaining. Love it!!

sensible rebuild. excellent.

I love both your cars. Great work on the C3 . Shame you couldn't match the curve on the dashboard but still looks OK.from the UK

Are you able to send links of items you used when converting your C3 to EFI. Electrical components, fuel tank, pump, vent, etc. I’m planning to do the conversion as well as rewire and this will be extremely helpful.

I think you have to much LSA but you’re right you will get more vacuum. I think you’d been better around 110.

That is awesome 👍🏻

Your daughter...awww. She'll remember that as long as she lives. Maybe she'll inherit it...

No stripes yet?

Until the C8 came out, I always thought the C3 was the prettiest Corvette. But I shamelessly admit to being a head over heels C8 fanboy. Quite the pair you have, best of both worlds having those two in that condition.

Thanks for making this video. I really enjoyed it.

Mad respect for the modifications. thats takes a lot of skill, experience and patience. though I gotta say the interior, just lookswise, got lowkey bogged imho

Thoughts on sound deadening?

Thats a shit interior, go spend the cash and get a proper one sculpted. Aside from that nice job

2 bolt 350s last forever at this level. Shouldn't have a bit of trouble at 500 hp.

Your last statement about the corvette is how I feel and that’s why I to am looking and the Cobra thanks great video

you need to clean the rust under the car befor this get serious ...

That dash is complete garbage. 🤮

lovely C3. Modern shocks and tyres will do a lot for the ride and handling

C8 IS JOKE !!!!

What if you used a late model 351w out of a 95/96 f150 or Bronco ?

The C8 is so ugly though. Just another typical high-end sports car. Build well but with no creative artistic design. Looks like every other high-end sports car. No character.

Awesome C3! That's always been my favorite generation vette. My dream car is an ordinary, common C3 ('79?) with a sleeper engine swap that is reliable enough to take road trips with. Thanks for the video and information.

when i was 22 i bought corvette of the same model with the same color and leather combo, used to daily it for a couple of years, i swear one day i will buy anoter and rebuild it from scratch, this video makes me so happy

How much would you charge to build another dashboard like that 🤔 I have a C3 and I like that updated look?

no offense without flow numbers to compare.. and or back to back dyno tests.... this is incomplete.

Man great video! I have a 1978 C3 and have thought about doing fuel injection. Any issues with your setup or is it still a worth it to do the upgrade?

Can a Ford old school 5.0 from a Foxbody🦊, explorer, ect. Fit in this Cobra build?

Love the color. Not aure if i misses it, but anyone can help me with color and code

I really like what you’re doing. Very well done 👍

Is this your day job? I’m really interested im a heavy equipment operator and I would love to have the time and funding to throw into my bikes and cars like this. All that said love this video and your C3

This is one of the best car vids I have ever seen

That made no sense to me

and 5th: pure looks for me, the C3 (mkII) is still the most pretty Vette, because of its round lines it just needs a chassis to match that ^^ the C8 is realy F.ugly because of its harsh agressive strait and hooked lines and on top its like they joined 2 unmatching cars in the middle, sorry

Good sensible advice.

This would be so cool. But I will tell you, I'm challenged replacing a lower radiator hose on my Park Avenue.

damn , the old version is looks hotter than the new one while it should be the other way around .

What size tires does this vehicle run front and back?

Excellent Video and Gorgeous Paint Job

I will like to do everything you did on your c3 to my c3. I’m mostly worried about wiring.

Did you center the bellhousing?? You might want to look up that procedure before you have to rebuild the Tremec.

Wow!

The C3 is still my favorite Corvette of all time and for me personally because it's a build somewhat more like a resto mod I give it a 37 that's just my opinion though and a 33 for the C8 it just fits me like a glove at 5:5 but definitely this C3 is done better than well and it's modded to your comfort

beautiful and thoughtful work. i’d take it over the C8 or damn near any modern car, any day of the week.

Im just in the planning stages. Do you have an idea what the cost would be if I went with a next kit up. Also I'm in Canada. BTW your car looks amazing.

These mods are super interesting, and well thought out. I agree on the interior, it does not fit in with the overall design. Nobody asked but I think a solution would be found in introducing some curves to the flat surfaces and straight lines. First suggestion is reduce the size of the two main gauges and use white lettering on black background to make them more coherent less aftermarket-look, I'd move the smaller outside gauges lower down like on the C2. I'd also use more authentic surface materials because they look better and last longer. I would use the door cards for inspiration to finish the dash. If you can use a 3D printer, a lot of molds can be made very accurately, then use foams covered in leather, alcantara is an effective way to go. That said, the new fabricated interior looks good, has great craftsmanship and details, just doesn't fit this car.

Thoroughly enjoyed this build and video, you did an amazing job on both. At this point in my life I'm definitely more interested in stability and control over maximum hp. I grew up at my grandfather's salvage yard so I really enjoyed watching you tear down that old junk yard motor and rebuild it. I gasped when you pulled that beautiful engine block out of the electrolysis tub, I guess that means all of this car stuff is still in my blood LOL.

We have these Blueprint heads on a 383 stroker. They perform very well, dissipate heat effectively and the engine makes 470 hp. Zoom zoom.

Is that an 77?

C3 is one of the most beautiful car designs ever!
