Default Re: 62 Corvette Pure Stock Build

Per the suggestion of a site member (67 442) I contacted Sparky's Carb Service in Milwaukee for the zinc plating I needed. The work was excellent, reasonable, and quick. Time for an update.

I reassembled the rear diff with the new axles and new bearings in the center section. Back on all 4



Reassembled the F.I. unit with aforementioned plated parts.







I fired the car up. Fixed a couple of small leaks....and it runs great, but could not get it to idle down (1700 rpm) Wouldn't you know.....the one thing I did not check..............the throttle body. The butterfly does not seal properly. You can throw a cat through the bottom side. Back to work!



I'll just keep plugging along
