Do we have any mechanics here on the C3VR?
If so, please identify yourself, and tell us a little bit about what you do!
Thanks!

Are we talking ASEI or whatever certified or just hackers or guys that do it for fun, and are better than some of the certified guys?
I do it for fun, from basic stuff to complete engine rebuild, automatic transmission, electrial, body work, painting, Below is the proof.

Well, lets put it this way...I'm asking about people that have been paid to work on other people's Vettes for more than 5 years!
Does that narrow it down?

Thats a interisting concept: getting paid for working on cars? Maybe I'll have to start charging?

My side pipes connect to headers, I believe they were Headman, specifically for Corvettes with side exhaust. I got them in a package deal when I purchased the side exhaust system at Chevy/Vettfest in Chicago, a few years ago.I think the part numbers has floated around a few times,if you need it I can take a look or post and I'm sure it will come up.

I was a certified mechanic working at the local Chevy dealership for 5 years. Then I got smart and went back to college.
Now the only cars I work on are my own and those that belong to co-workers who know I used to be a mechanic.

I,m about 85% done and trying to be finished by spring .. I,ll take a pic later today and send it to you of the engine compartment . The carb setup takes up a lot of room so I am installing a hydroboost and removing the vacuum unit for the brakes . I need the extra room as I would like to build a trick air filter system .
