Corvette C3 1968-1982: How to Build and Modify
Performance How-To
Anotace
Around half a million Corvettes were sold between 1968 and 1982, and the distinctive Shark body style with V-8 power has gained huge status. Some Corvettes may be to rare and valuable to be modified like the big-block cars built between 1968-74 but the vast majority built between 1975 and 1982 are affordable, plentiful, and ideal for high-performance builds. Many Corvettes from this era are often considered weekend cruisers because they carry antiquated brakes, steering, suspension, and anaemic V-8 engines with 165-220HP. Lacking modern technology, these 31-year old, or older, cars are ripe for high-performance transformations. Corvette expert and builder Chris Petris shows how to transform a mundane C3 into a standout, high-performance car. In step-by-step format with full-colour photos and comprehensive caption, you are guided through the installation of top-quality aftermarket suspension components, engine equipment, big brakes, frame upgrades, and improved driveline parts. The most popular upgrades include to every component group are covered, including engine, transmission, differential, front suspension, rear suspension, steering, chassis, electrics, interior, tyres, wheels, and more. With all this information the reader can confidently install all the products and complete the procedures that make the car as a whole a far better performer than stock. This is the ideal book for the at-home mechanic as well as the adept enthusiast supervising the build-up of a Corvette, and whether it is mildly modifying your corvette for greater comfort and driveability, or substantially modifying it for vastly improved acceleration, braking and handling, this book has a massive range of projects to accomplish the reader s goals.
