Q: I have a Gen. Five, LT-series 5.3L L83 engine that’s going into my 1975 Chevy Monza. The factory intake manifold is too tall to clear the stock hood, so I need a lower-profile intake. Can I use the intake from a newer Corvette LT1? *** A: Yes, the LT1 intake will bolt up to your

OK, so General Motors, maybe even Chevrolet, is building what appears to be a mid-engined supercar. We’ve teased some spy shots before. So far however, nobody has officially called it a Corvette—heck, by the time it reaches production, it could just as easily be called a Fiero. But we’re pretty confident now that this mid-engined beast

Summit Racing’s been around for over 50 years now, which means the Company has been involved in more than a few project car builds. (You can check out its first one here.) The 1987 Chevy Corvette you see here was featured in the November 1997 edition of Car Craft magazine. Summit Racing threw its vast parts catalog

Many cross-flag folks regard the 1968-72 Corvette years as the last of the “vintage-era” Stingrays, and that’s simply because in 1973, ’Vettes began adapting to new regulations for both vehicle safety and emissions. Fun Fact: In the C2 Corvette generation (1963-67), “Sting Ray” appeared as two words. In 1968, sales literature still used Sting Ray,

The vintage Corvette community can place a lot of importance on originality, and things like factory-correct chalk marks, tank stickers, and matching numbers are a big, big deal. But after seeing what Jeff Monchilov did to this stunning 1972 Stingray, we’re confident he’d earn a hearty “thumbs up” from even the most hardened OE perfectionists.

Chevrolet said its new 2019 Corvette ZR1 was pretty fast, boasting 755 horsepower and 715 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 6.2L LT5 engine. Now, there’s a lap record to back it up. The new ZR1 covered the 4.1-mile Grand Course circuit at Virginia International Raceway in a blistering 2:37.25—a production-car lap record. Aside from

Earlier this month, Chevy pulled the wraps off its new Corvette ZR1. (You can read more about it here.) But what if you want the wind-in-your-hair pleasure of a convertible? Well, Chevy’s got you covered with a soft-top version of its tire-blistering halo car. Unveiled this week, just prior to the LA Auto Show, the

The Corvette’s C3 generation was its longest, spanning from 1968 to 1982. That’s an eternity in Detroit time, especially if it included the 1970s—a decade infamously tough on performance cars (also, fashion). But the Corvette weathered gas shortages, emissions controls, increased safety regulations, and leisure suits better than most other cars did. In 1973 and

Chevrolet just unveiled the brand-new 2019 Corvette ZR1 over the weekend. Judging from the specs, it’s clear that Chevy made sure this Vette lived up to its ZR-1 namesake—a world-class supercar that’s going to draw the attention of folks in both Maranello and Stuttgart. Under the new Stingray’s carbon fiber hood rests an all-new LT5
