I picked up this 1989 Corvette for $500 from a car lot, its completely trashed, but a great candidate for a vette kart! We swap the fuel injection out for a good old fashioned carburetor and have tons of fun.

Your gentle, caressing touch on your projects is a joy to watch. How you are so careful and concise with the things you need to remove is a lesson to us all. I'm not finished watching yet, but my PC is having a fit, and I am writing this while I have the chance. Not unlike the suspected bad solenoid on your transmission, things are currently working in a fashion, but I do not know how long it will last. Finished watching, and boy did I laugh at the antics and panic while out on your adventure. I would love to be able to get up to the things that you guys do. Living the dream! I'm looking forward to seeing what you get up to next. All the best, Neil :-)

You can switch the distributor gear from the computer one to the old one. Roll pin should be in the same place. Also turn the bolts on the rear control arms. That adjusts the rear camber, gives the traction back you lost by removing that 200 lb rear window

I'm a former GM driveability tech, and I worked on a bunch of these 5.7L tuned port engines. GM stuck them in the Vette, firebird, Camaro, and the Chevy Caprice that had the police package. I approve you switching to carburetor and hei ignition, parts for this engine was ridiculous. Injectors would short internally due to no regulation on ethanol concentration, and had Bosch injectors that were $200+ a piece. The mass airflow sensor was Bosch and a common fail item as it used a heated wire in the airflow that was cooled and varied resistance to figure airflow, those were $600+. Not a cheap engine for the time. The next generation of these were even worse, using the optispark ignition with the distributor behind the water pump and driven by the camshaft. Made replacing the cap and rotor a real fun time. We always recommended replacing the water pump as we had to remove it anyway to service the distributor.

Your comment on cars being user friendly is so true. I had recently replaced my cabin filter on my 21 Jeep renegade had to remove the entire glove box and lower portion of dash 30 minutes. My old lancer was two clips easy 5 minutes.

I think that electric rachet from dewalt is more valuable than the entire C4.

I thing the thing at 43:35 is a go cart external starter. You would plug it in and stick the end on the crank and use it to spin the motor over.

Personally love the C4. I have taken my 84 from stock to 7 second 1/4 mile car over the years. Make great race cars - And they are cheap. They look good. They handle excellently if you're into turning corners, are pretty lightweight and can be made super lightweight easily..... If you're into drag racing they are a great platform to build from as well..... TPI is indeed garbage today, performance wise and working on it wise but was cool back in the 80s... not to worry as old SBC retrofits easily and so does LSX engines. There's alot of room under the hood once you strip away the BS.....

The only time I ever went to Keystone Raceway to watch trophy class drag races (back in the late 80s I think), there were 2 entrants who beat everyone else. The first was a square body short bed with a built 454 and the other monster was a C4 Corvette that looked stock but I'm thinking had something interesting under the hood.

I have that exact same koozie with the polar bear, using it right now in fact. It's got blue ice in it, so you put it in the freezer and it will keep your can cold for hours. Best invention ever.

This was one of your funniest videos, I really enjoyed every minute of it. Especially your dedication to proper disposal techniques. Pop a cap on those 90s rims, if they're dual pattern and also 5x5 some dumbass will pay you more than you paid for the car for them to stick on an OBS truck.

I recently found your channel when it popped up on recommended when I was watching Vice Grip Garage. I've been binging your videos, instantly subbed and ordered some merch. Loving the fresh air and real feel to your videos. Also as someone who loves C4s I'm still ok with this particular video because the car still got to live.

Obviously you know of the Roadkill Vette Kart, but did you watch the Motor Trend Vette Hack video where it came from? If not, I’d recommend it. They reached a point where they had to add weight back to it because the power simply went up in tire smoke, and that was on a hot dry day at a prepped race track.

For me personally this is the BEST video I've ever seen. The family owned shop I work at with my brother he has an obsession with Corvettes. He is like the rain man of corvettes. I think I'm going to go in this weekend and do exactly the same thing to one of his beautiful pos sitting in the yard. Just to see what his reaction is Monday morning...... What an inspiration you've been today Thanks man.
