Alex, the whole point of that style of gas can is that a funnel isn't needed. The put the nozzle in with the plastic button facing down. Hook the button on the edge of the filler and push the tank down. It will open the valve and allow fuel to flow. One 1 person needed

LT-1's are notorious for developing an ignition miss from the optispark timing. The timing system is prone to getting dirty and fails to recognize the crank position. Once the engine compartment gets that dirty it's worth a disassembly and cleaning. My 95 had a lot of performance work on it back in the day and then started missing like yours. Finally traced to the OptiSpark. It's worth looking into.

*EDIT added more info please read. If i remember correctly those are LT4 heads by the look of it with those rockers its a factory GM LT4 head setup. They are also aluminum and pretty easy to port to 300. They LT4 heads flow around 15% better then LT1 heads. The heads would also need a bigger intake so that might explain some other parts also. *EDIT I would also make sure those are not LT1 springs in there I know some will use LT1 springs in a 1.6 rocker and they are near their limit like that. Also this is a procharger supercharger air to air intercooled kit they are 8k msrp I believe. Its a older style headunit so it wouldnt have came with injectors or anything so I would check those for aftermarkets. These kits like to pull around 8 psi. Also the headunit for the kit looks like a p-1sc might be a d-1sc not 100% both these headunits look the same but the D will have bigger internals. Also for those interested you can see around 60-55% more power at 8 psi with these. And these are hilical gear so they might not be as loud as other superchargers. *EDIT Seems like the consensus is its actually straight cut not hilical my mistake sorry.

Hello people at LegitStreetCars so your content is quite good with me fully watching the first two videos on your playlist on the supercharged Corvette, then went back to the first video of the playlist to form such a comment. Could you work on the CL65 AMG with the v12 or give some information about what is going on with it somewhere? Perhaps what happened was you forgot to say anything about the v12 project every time you recorded a video due to doing other stuff with your cars, which I guess we all forget something to say all the time and I see there are many other projects for you to work on. I came from Hoovies Garage to your channel as well as I saw that Car Wizard's video about you, but I did not sign into a KZbin channel at the time, which this is the first time I signed in to watch your videos due to KZbin already showing suggested videos of things that are completely different than cars, which I do have many interests so I did not think it would have worked well. I signed in to make the comment, which is likely the starting point of me watching other videos on my channel. Something slightly off I saw was I went down to the "FOLLOW ME HERE!" section of your site called legitstreetcars.com and it showed a chain on one of the buttons instead of the TikTok logo as well as the same thing happening to the top right header of the page, which both links that look like chains go to tiktok.com/@legitstreetcars?lang=en to me. I do not use TikTok

FYI- the C4 corvette fuel sending unit comes out of the fuel door. You just take the door off and there is the fuel pump. I would highly suspect bad fuel injectors from experience. Also, the wheel liners come off for better access to the sides of the engine. I love this car! This thing is SIIICK!!!!!!

I've been daily driving a heavily modified '95 LT1 6 speed C4 and have encountered a bunch of the quirks of these cars myself. Also definitely have to admit what a steal of a deal this car is. I cannot believe the condition its in with the parts it came with, this was an incredible buy. Definitely did a good job finding and buying this car! - As for the body kit that is on it, I'm not 100% sure if they are supposed to be labeled or not, but that definitely is a Greenwood style C4 kit with the wing and the door extensions etc. - The fuel sending unit/fuel pump is super easy to replace on these, you just need to remove the gas lid and surrounding rubber boot inside of the hole to get access to the unit itself (when replacing the sending unit, get a new rubber boot surround too as you will rip the old one without a doubt, they tear like paper with how brittle they get with age, especially if its the original one), no dropping the tank and whatnot with C4s (dropping the tank is actually kind of a larger job, the whole rear bumper has to come off as well as a small bolt-on rear section of the frame that holds the tank). Sending unit can be replaced with a stainless steel unit too. - As for the heads/rockers, the rockers look like part of a GM Performance kit that is super common with C4s. The casting number on the heads look to be a factory LT4 head which came on all factory stick shift 1996 Corvettes as well as the stick shift special edition cars (i.e. Collector's edition, Grand Sport, etc). There is a camshaft that compliments that kit too which goes by the name of "LT4 Hotcam" which is a really nice mild street cam that can sound pretty lumpy with the right exhaust, too hard to tell if your car has it or not, it has the rest of the parts of the kit though so wouldn't be surprised. And with the LT4 heads, it has to have the LT4 intake, (which is odd cause LT4 intakes are painted red from the factory, unless someone repainted this one), the LT1/LT4 heads/intakes are not interchangeable with each other, they have to match, but both setups will bolt to the same block as that didn't change. LT4 cars came from the factory with those exact same looking 1.6 silver Chevy Perf. rockers, and with the different heads/intake/rockers/etc, they made 30 more HP from the factory than LT1 cars. So you already have "upgraded" heads and intake manifold, all be it still factory equipment, its still better than LT1 factory stuff. But the heads definitely look like they have been off, you can see the head gaskets through the pushrod holes and on camera briefly looking at them they look pretty new to me. Those fuel rails look like factory fuel rails and the injectors also look to be stock too but not 100% sure. - Not sure which year they did the crossover, either 1992 or 1993, but for the trans it either has a 700R4 for the older models or a 4L60e for the newer ones. - Also for the brake light thats on the dashboard, mess around with the e-brake more, that might still be the parking brake light (small differences between your 93 and my 95, especially with the dashboard and cluster so it might not translate over 100% with my info, still worth a try), sometimes you have to really lift all the way up when you set it back down after releasing it to get the light to go off, mine does it occasionally, not a big deal (the light sometimes stays on even if its physically completely released and not holding the rear brakes anymore). I don't think that light is for a brake system fault, ABS related lights will be on the center little screen. There might be a brake pressure light on the main cluster but it doesn't look like its lit in your car. And for the brakes being pretty stiff, mine is kind of the same way, I've gotten used to it, thats kind of how C4s are normally it seems. - Supposedly spark plugs are easier to do on these from the bottom, I have all the EGR tubes deleted from my car so it makes plugs much easier to do, even from up top in the engine bay (and also cleans up the engine bay really nice, and also really easy to delete this system). - Not sure if you will deal with this or not, but a huge conversation topic with LT1/4 C4s is engine temps and how hot these run. Just to put into perspective, LT1/4 cars have 2 electric fans that operate together either on low or high speed, low speed fans come on at 228 F and high speed fans come on at 238 F. These cars are designed this way from the factory and its nothing to be alarmed about, especially in stop and go traffic since C4s dont have grilles and are mouth breathers with virtually no airflow at a stand still. You should really only be worried if you are seeing 240 F +. Of course the cooler the car runs the better. Bleeding coolant can be a little time consuming with these, there should be a bleeder screw on the top of the thermostat neck which helps with bleeding air. - As for those targa top pieces, the targa top mounts on the car itself look perfectly fine, it just looks like someone left the rear mounting hardware from the top that was on it attached to the car. The two rear mounting bolts completely come out on these where as the two front bolts are captured in that little plastic housing towards the front and can be accessed/tightened down with the top with small little access holes hidden around/behind the sun visors. You have all the hardware for the top, should just be able to get another targa top with your existing hardware and you'll have a roof again! Be careful though, certain targa tops fit different years, the earlier C4s had slightly different frontward mounting brackets, luckily since you have a later one those are more common to find, I believe the years for the style targa top you need is from 1989-1996 and will fit your 1993 just fine. Also all 4 mounting bolts are torx head bits, believe its a T45 torx bit. Hopefully any of this information helps, I apologize for the long read and I don't mean to be a snob or act like an expert with C4s, just thought I'd help out where I can. Looking forward to seeing more videos on this car! Good luck!

I have a 94 C4 vette in almost new-looking condition that runs as good as it looks. The Targa top is poorly designed on these cars needing a screwdriver to remove. The electronics on the car are failing and it’s hard to get someone to work on them because of the lack of parts. But, to me, these are the most attractive Corvettes ever! They are large in and out and very comfortable. I’m an old fart now and as low as these cars are, they are a chore to get in ir out of. My present vette is my second, as I bought one when new in 94.

I am 39 years old, so when I was a kid these C4s were the pinnacle of American muscle cars (along with the Viper of course). I was 18 years old when the first FnF came out and at the time I owned a 1994 Eddie Bauer Ford Explorer with a Fox body 302 swap with aluminum heads, an Explorer Express Eaton M90 full supercharger kit (that cost me around $5,000 new back in 2001), it had a SkyJacker 6" suspension lift with 33X12.50 TSL Thornbirds, but it was only RWD, so it was all for looks. I had a custom made exhaust with Ford Racing shorty headers, and 3" true duals back to 58" DynoMax glasspacks with 12" chrome slant cut tips. It was pretty quick, and when it was tuned it made 408 HP at the rear wheels. It was built by a real good friend of mine who owned a new machine shop in town and all he asked for in return was for me to give him some cheap advertising through my parents company. I did and I loved that truck, but I started seeing more and more Hondas around and I hated them at first because it seemed like everyone who had an automatic Civic with a straight pipe made of flexi-pipe wanted to race and I would dust all of them, until I raced a Puerto Rican dude in an EF Civic hatchback and he shot past me (with the help of nitrous) and I knew that I had to have one. I moved back to Pennsylvania from Florida that year and I traded my Exploder for a 1992 Acura Integra GS. I loved that car. I mean I really loved that car. The Integra was my 3rd (technically 5th) car, and I've been addicted to imports ever since.

Great video. I had never driven a C4 until this past Friday. A friend has a 95 Indy 500 Pace Car convertible version (I believe they may not have produce coupe versions, but Corvette aficionados can speak to that) with 6k miles... that's right, 6,000 miles. It recently won an Award of Excellence at our Concours in the Race Car class. It runs and drives very well once it's warmed up. Until then, it is difficult to drive. After it's warm, it is a sheer pleasure to drive and one helluva lot of fun. I've got a pic of me in it, but since it's not my car, I will not post it. Vettes from this era had Bilsteins as original shocks.

I've owned a couple LT1/LT4 cars, and the "Distributor" on the front of the engine is called an "Opti-Spark" and they are plagued with issues. I daily drove one for a couple years and I replaced the opti 4 times in those two years. Definitely a good idea to look into how to replace those, and make sure its functioning correctly. Not saying its your issue, but it's something to look at. Might have more going on with all that MSD stuff.

They vented them at some point which improved reliability. I've owned my 95 Vette over 18 years now and it's still has the same opti from when I bought the car.

Absolutely love this series! Bringing back lots of memories for me. My first corvette was a 93 and I did all the repairs and maintenance on it myself. I can tell you from experience that changing the plugs was one of the most frustrating jobs I’ve ever done on any vehicle I’ve owned. The added supercharger parts will make it even worse. Also I’m sure you’ve heard about the opti spark distributor and the horrors surrounding it. Be glad the AC works, 93 was the last year for R-12 refrigerant.

If it is hard to start, especially when at operating temp. and misfires worse under load be sure to check the optispark. I have replaced 4 through the years on 2 different 94 Z28's.

Thank CARB in California for those new gas cans. Check out Eckler's Corvette.They might sell that body kit. That looks like a Vortech and it might be low on oil. Those 1.6 rockers don't need dual springs. I had them in my '97 WS6. Those look like GMPP's. Have fun with those spark plugs. Welcome to my LT1 world. Change ot that Opti-Spark if it's factory. I had the MSD on mine.

@PlugInRides

I think the pop up headlights were a real weak spot of the C5. In addition to the aerodynamic drag, the stock headlights had terrible illumination. They really need an LED replacement, like Sharp Light Innovations offers. I really love their fixed, clear cover headlight solution, if not its price tag.

@@trentdawg2832 C5s have the best price point/value IMHO. C4s are a little cheaper, but much more problematic. "Affordable" C3s are trashed, and the C7 and C8 are hella expensive. The C5 already has an LS, and it can be modified or swapped for more power. The chassis is pretty similar to the C6 and C7.

Long live the LT1! My 1997 LT1 Camaro makes about 600hp at the crank with a 20+ year old Vortech V1-S at only 7psi. Ported stock heads, forged rods and pistons, small cam and running on Holley Terminator X with an LS ignition system. Bought mine with 56k and a hole where the #7 piston ringland was supposed to be. Modernized the blower kit by ditching the FMU, the spark retard box and the auxiliary pump. Replaced that old shit with a larger in tank pump, larger injectors and the Holley Terminator X. Ditched the optispark for a 24x ignition system. Don't need to retard the stock calibration when you make your own lol. Most of those old blowers (mine included" had straight cut gears and are noisey. But don't rule bearings out either. 92-93 LT1's are speed density from the factory. They actually have a unique intake manifold compared to 94-97 as well. Due to fuel line routing. And factory pressure with the vacuum line off the regulator is 43.5psi. And those casting numbers on the heads come back as LT4 heads. Which are a nice upgrade to an LT1. Check intake port alignment because true LT4 heads need an LT4 intake to line up properly.
