Man, I didn't even think about the straight sixes from the first years of production! You guys definitely got me on this one! I could argue that the way that horse power was measured in '53 versus '75, it would be very close, but I was still incorrect! Thank you for the reminder that I still have a lot to learn! :) Lyle

@@caddymac6917 Sat in one at NASCAR Fontana Cali in 06, GM Booth. Started saving. Loved Atomic Orange, and really started in 10 looking across North America (I'm a Canuck), as usually nicer cars are found in Southern US. By 13 I was giving up but my wife found an 09 in Ontario ( we're in BC). She demanded I jump on a plane and look :-) Car was mint 16000 km if I remember, and I drove it home. I put 14-16 hr days in those seats for four days. Never felt better!!!!! I was 46 then, 6'2, 220, and even now still feel great every time I drive "Rusty". I highly recommend getting the heads done. It's not worth the stress and removes the largest issue with these cars. I have had Zero issues with it, but don't drive it hard. Put a thousand or two kilometers a year on it nowadays. Buy a non molested car if you find one. Good luck and cheers ehhh :-)

@csvette6 ай бұрын
It could be the transmission, but whining at cruise in 5th would make me suspect the Differential....next time the car is in the air for an oil change, have the technician listen to the Torque tube, transmission and Diff with the car running in gear...that will tell the tale. Lyle

Have your clutch fluid flushed / drained. GM had a memo sent out a few years back on having this done every couple years or 24k miles. For most owners, it'll be every 2 yrs.

they made some 83s - even though they didn't sell any of them. So, technically, in a way, the 83s did have horsepower. I like your joke though and if we restrict it to cars you could buy, then it's still valid. I got to see the one and only remaining 1983 Corvette at the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green.
