Thanks for the info. I know the Replacement 3.73 Ratio Ring And Pinion Gear Set for the 93 corvette improves perfomance, but could you explain more for me. THanks so much

About the Fan Problem... it is not necissarily "too high" per-se... These cars pretty much came out of the factory running hot. My car gets so hot sometimes when i get stuck in traffic that my legs start sweating in the leg-space. It is kind of crazy, i know. But there are only a handful of ways to get your car to run cooler. One way is to get a new thermostat and get a programmer for your computer and tell it that you have a new therm. and it will recognize the change and turn the fan on earlier. Another way, FROM WHAT IM TOLD, is to get something called Water-Wetter. It goes in your coolant i believe and it is supposed to make your car run about 10 degrees cooler. Also, you can get a new Radiator from, i think the site is called, extremeradiators.com. Ummm, one more way is that ecklers sells a kit that you can hook up and it has a set temperature for your fan to kick on. I think you could also get a dual-fan setup but im not too sure about that. Never looked into it. Hope that helped a bit.

well what i did is i bought a raidiator from griffin raidiator, 2 inch 2 core.... then i hooked my fan to a toggle swich so i can turn it on when i want or leve it running the whole time i drive.... then i put in some red line water wetter and some stuff called 40 below and some green freez... i bled all the air aut of the system witha vacume pump and my car sitting in traffic never goes over 190 deg when i drive it reaches 185 deg i have a 180 thermostat from be cool.....:D

what would you like me to explane?

Thanks guys for all the help! One last query to worry you all with: I do sometimes take trips, once or twice a year and wondering which gear ratio you experts would recommend - 3:42 or 3:73? And thanks again!:D

YOU HAVE OVERDRIVE RIGHT, I HAVE 373 IN MY VETTE RIGHT NOW AND I LIKE THEM,, IN 4 OVERDRIVE IT RUNS AROUND 2000 RPM AT 65 MPH.. YOU SHOULD HAVE NO BROBLEM WITH THOSE GEARS....:D:D

YOU ARE VERY WELCOME:D

Thanks "King". That was exactly the info I was looking for!

Remember the wave![8D]
