Last time I posted this only the female knew what it was.

 

 

 

 

Small block I would have guessed a Camaro, maybe a big block SCCA attempt?

A one off strange big block cross ram canyon burner?

:dunno:

 

Camaro maybe?

Looks like the cross ram intake from the 302...but looks like a big block....In 83 Chevy built 70 "engineering" Vettes...they say probably more than 1 slipped into private hands but they dont know for sure......84 Vettes were introduced in March of 83.... supposedly the idea to skip a year was thought up back in 77....they decided on a redesign in 83 for the 30th Anniv and it was a flop....so they skipped it...84 had a quoted 205 horsepower...they said they had closer to 350 horse under a "cmpetition tune".........guess they were gettin tunes back in the day.......HPT?..lol....jp

Those are porcupine 302 heads developed by Chevrolet and Smokey Yunick for Trans Am racing. They are similar to a big block Chevy head. I've seen that car at Super Chevy. I think that was the holy grail of small block Chevy racing engines of the day

what year was power steering introduced into the corvette?

 

1963?

:thumbs::cheers:

Yeah, but do you guys know who INVENTED power steering? (clue: the patent is still in his name)

 

Mr. P. :)

 

 

OH! OH! OH! I know the answer Mister P!...Smokey Yunick :D

No 1983 Corvette

Did you know there actually WERE a little under 50 1983 Corvettes made? I think they were never sold to the public, but I'm not positive.

One sits in the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, KY...

 

I believe it was 43 total produced...only one left vin'd as an '83 (the one in the museum)...

 

the other 42 were destroyed or used for parts on '84's! :thumbs:

:withstupid: That's what I've heard as well, but I've also heard that the rest of the 83's just got re-tagged as 84's. Which is true? :dunno:
