Expert Answers about Chevrolet Corvette


  • Magnaflow Universal Catalytic Converter, Part # MF94309 as Replacement for 1997 Chevy Corvette
  • The MF94309 converter will work mechanically speaking, but due to the tight clearances of the Corvette undercarriage, you will need to measure the existing converter to ensure the replacement has the same dimensions. Also keep in mind that this particular converter is 49 state legal, it cannot be used in California.

  • Tie Down Solution for Corvette on Open Car Hauler
  • This question is refined by several decisions. What will you use for tie down points on the Corvette? What will you use for tie down points on the trailer? How easy do you want it to be. Finally, what looks good. If you are OK with climbing under your car each time to hook into the car and then connect to the edge of the trailer, you can simply use the QuickLoader # Q64FR ratchet straps. You will need to consult your Owner's Manual or Manufacturer for appropriate tie down locations...

  • Recommended Spare Tire for a Venture VATB-7225 Boat Trailer
  • You will want to get a spare tire that has the same size and weight capacity as your current tires do. If your spare was rated for a lower weight capacity and you had a blowout while under a full load, your spare tire might not be able to handle the weight. I looked up your Venture Boat Trailer model and it looks like your tire size for your VATB-7225 is ST225/75D15 with a Load Range of D. From what I gather it looks like your wheel has a 6 lug pattern. A great spare tire would be the...

  • Fan Recommendation for my 1965 Chevrolet Corvette with the 396 Cubic Inch Engine
  • For your 1965 Chevrolet Corvette with the 396 cubic inch engine I really like the Derale 26-3/8" Dual, High-Output Electric Radiator Fan w/ Aluminum Shroud part # D66836. It has 4,000 CFM which will really help keep things cool but also comes with the temperature sensor to turn the fan on and off when it is needed rather than having to monitor it and turn it on and off with a switch. This could lead to issues if you forget to turn it on. The controller also will adjust the speed of the...

  • Is a Trailer Hitch Available for a 2010 Corvette Z06 with Dual Mode Exhaust
  • There aren't any trailer hitches that fit your 2010 Corvette Z06 but if you're needing an additional way to carry some extra cargo the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B might be something you're interested in. This uses powerful vacuum cups to secure to your roof and give you a way to add something like a cargo box to your roof. If you're dead-set on a trailer hitch then you'll need to reach out to a local shop to see if they can fabricate something for you.

  • Best Performance Upgrades for a 2006 Chevrolet Corvette with 6.0L V8 LS2 Engine
  • I do have similar options for your 2006 Chevrolet Corvette with the 6.0L V8 LS2 engine that can give you an idea of how much horsepower and torque is gained from your cold air intake and performance tuner but unless I knew the exact brand and model of them, I would not be able to accurately estimate power increases.

  • Comparing Bulldog Winch 13-Piece Ratcheting Vehicle Tie-Down Strap Set BDW20350 and BDW20351
  • You are correct. The # BDW20351 comes with 4 padded axle strap covers for paint protection while the # BWD20350 does not. Otherwise these strap kits are identical. Since you are planning to use this 2019 Corvette Grand Sport I would definitely choose the # BDW20351 with the padded covers to keep your vehicle protected.

  • The Rear View Safety Backup Camera System - Built-in Backup Sensors # RVS-5350 can have the base removed from the back of the monitor easily using a screwdriver.
