This vehicle has a reservoir tank, which make removing air out of the system easy. After whatever coolant repair you do, run the car for a while with the Coolant tank cap off as the vehicle warns and runs. Do small continuous revs with the heat on. As soon as you have consistent, chk the coolant tank and top off if needed. Hope this helps. Be safe, Cheers.

Oh and everything else use 303 UV protectors on. The stuff lasts way longer, you seem to enjoy your machines. Especially plastic components in the engine bay, plastic and rubber.

Please explain, so I can make better content for the future. Thanks for the honest comment, Cheers.

Just watched the video again. Was it disconnecting the electrical connectors for the active exhaust flaps? I did forget that.

For everything I replaced?

@@NY-DIYMECH for the tube yes

Absolutely 💯, Your gonna have to give me a bit, have to go back and find receipts. Thx for following and be safe. Talk soon

@@NY-DIYMECH thank's bro

Hey thx for watching and commenting. Yeah, there's tons of information out there, from many good, and not so good, individuals out there. The talent out there in the TH-cam world is truly amazing. I just went off of research, combined with my knowledge, and did things. I didn't mark my splines at all. I also have a slight vibration, but that's due to poly drive shift bushings. I also found that my rear tires were out of balance by .25oz. After balancing them, the slight vibration went to a faint one. I also went w the ls7 clutch, but with an aluminum FW. Great factory upgrade. I also did zr1 clutches, w upgraded Bellville washers as well when I did did gears. What big difference. Out side of all that, haven't had any issues. Hopefully I answered your question. Need anything else feel.free to reach out. Thx for watching, and please like and subscribe. Also follow @nydiymechanical. Be safe, Cheers

I was curious about that as well, usually the assemblies are balanced as a whole. 😅 Great video though.

@@gsc512 You're right, they are balanced as a complete assembly. In hind-sight I should have, now better for next time. Thx for the nice comment. Be safe, Cheers.

Thx very much, hope it helped ya out. Please like and subscribe. Follow us @nydiymechanical cheers.

My apologies for the very late response. Depends on what you're looking to do with the car. What model do you have, and what's your end goal.for the car? Doing a clutch on any corvette platform is a pain, especially c5 thru c7. I'm aware that the z51,zo6 and zL1 have twin disc clutches. Very robust for oem. Get back to me lmk. Thanks so much for the questions. Please like and subscribe, along with following @nydiymechanical

@@NY-DIYMECH I ain’t trying to race or anything like that I just want a durable lasting clutch.

What model do you have?

@@NY-DIYMECH it’s a stingray idk what you mean by model

As in sub model.......Base model, z51, zo6 or zr1.....

Also a great idea. Lots of talent out there. Thx for watching, please like and subscribe. Be safe, Cheers.

My deepest apologies for the late response back. So, to answer your questions. For my brakes, I'm running tje Wilwood 4 piston fixed mounted calipers front and rear. Model # for the front are SLC56, and rear DPC56. There're a factory upgrade using existing mounting used on the spindles. Go wildwood to find them. You may have to buy from a vendor. I bought mine on ebay, best price ever. They fit with the c5 z 17 rim, but will also clear a regular c5 base rim as well, you just need a 12 to 15mm hubcentric spacer. I use base model wagon wheels 17 in front and 18 in rear, with both 15mm spacers. Set of track tires, uts an awesome set up, very happy with it. With this Calipar set up, you use the factory size rotors front and rear. I run a blank rotors to keep the cost down on buying pads. The stopping power is waaaayyyyy better than stock, still using factory rims set up. The front pads you can other brand pads. The rear pads, are wildwood only. Wildwood does seem more extreme pads for the rear, but there're so not cheap. The front like I said, other companies make different styles of.pads you can use for various driving conditions. Hope this answers your question. Please like and subscribe. Follow us @nydiymechanical. Any other questions please reach out. Cheers

So sorry for the late response. Regular green antifreeze. Nothing special. Thx for watching. Please subscribe and chk me out on the gram. Glad to help, Cheers.

@@NY-DIYMECH hey no worries! I’m planning on changing my thermostat today and I’m going to do a complete flush with distilled water, just wasn’t sure if I should use the pricier Asian vehicle coolant for a complete fill or if I’d be okay with the cheaper yellow (all vehicle) type because I already have several gallons of that on hand. Thanks for the reply!

You mean on aluminum bushing, or comparing products? Thx for writing in, Cheers!

Thx very much, hope it helped. Please like and subscribe. Wishbone a great new year. Cheers

@@NY-DIYMECH Done, 💯🤙🏻😎

Anytime. Please like and subscribe to the channel. More content eventually. Stay safe, cheers

Great header so far, owner loves the car and exhaust set up. Thx for watching and commenting. More content to come. Be safe, Cheers.

Hello, thanks so much for leaving a comment. It was a good amount, but not as much as a C5. The C5 in the rear trunk area, there's a trunk well that drops, and you have to drop the cradle really really low. The C7 doesn't have that trunk well. To keep things more simple, split the trans and end of torque, and drop out as two sections. The C7 if your working on the ground, is just a little bit easier. I hope this helps. Again, thanks for the comment, please like and subscribe to the channel and Instagram. Good luck and be safe. Cheers.

​@NY-DIYMECH Did you end up having to drop down the engine cradle to get at the bell housing bolts? You mentioned in the video that you might have to but I couldn't tell if you did or not. Thanks!

@@venomous1svt yes, I have too a little bit. Disconnect the steering shift either at the rack, or steering column end, and undo all the engine cradle bolts little by little. Don't undo them totally of, leave a good 5 turns on. That should give you plenty of space to remove the bell housing. Any other questions feel free to reach out again. Cheers

Hello!!!, thanks for leaving a comment. No squeaks or rattles in the suspension, but I have notice some different interior noises now that the suspension is stiffened up. Big noticeable difference in handling, and steering response. Just make sure you order extra poly grease from a different source, the Poly sus/bush kit I went with didn't supply enough grease. Make sure you use lots of grease and wear gloves, very messy stuff. Regarding tire wear, nothing crazy really. I've done multiple track days and street driving, no crazy wearing found. I do run a different set of track tire/wheels, and still don't really notice crazy wear, other than track wear and tear. I hope this helps, Thanks for leaving a comment. Please like and subscribe to the channel and Instagram. Good luck on the project and be safe. Cheers.

Yes, from what I remember. I gapped the cooler from the radiator about 10mm. I hope this trick helps. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe. Ride safe, Cheers.

DM me, we can talk further if you'd like. Thx for watching, Cheers.

@@NY-DIYMECH how do I DM you

On Instagram @nydiymechanical or Email at nydiy22@gmail.com.

It was a great time, weather held out and everyone's car ran great. Thx for the comment, Cheers.

Not that I'm aware of. There are now many companies making aluminum flywheels for the LS base. Which could be good for competitive pricing. Thx for commenting, Cheers.

No issue at all. It does have a replaceable steel contact clutch surface plate. Great throttle response. I'm using a LS7 clutch, so the cluch is a little heavier compare to other aftermarket clutches out there. Thx for following and posting. Cheers.

Thank you, and thanks for following. New content coming shortly. Cheers!!!!

No promo at all. This is how Ive been repairing hoses for a while. It's just a cleaner way. Thank you for commenting. Cheers

Thx for the comment. It worked for me. Also, chk the wiring to the sensor, I've also seen it get ripped off when riding. That's would also cause a light. Please throw a like and subscribe. Chk us out on the gram as well. Ride safe, Cheers.

Trying to record and move things w/ one hand is difficult, I know better for next time. I hope you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching, stay safe.

Excellent, its really a great car that offers so much. Enjoy the heck out if. Thx for following, Cheers!!

Thx very much for watching. Stay tuned for more bushing installs on a C7 project I'm currently working on. Please like and subscribe. Be safe, Cheers!!

Appreciate it! Thx for turning in. Be safe, Cheers!!!!

Apologies for the late response. I'm still trying to navigate through the tube and IG notifications. Thx so much subscribing, means lots. There's lots of good content coming soon. Be safe.

Yeah, sucker was crazy loud. Amazing car, really was.

Yeah, the wind noise is a little loud, along with the music. Trying to improve my editing skills....lol. I'll get there. I know I can got faster, just need to commit to two turns. Thanks for reaching out, stay safe.

Hey, thx for the comment. Give that a shot, along with looking at the oil temp sensor or wire damage. Both are located around the bottom rear area of the machine. I've also found either or to be broken, giving a false warning light as well. Cheers!!

@@NY-DIYMECH I will man...and I will let ya know how it turns out

Hey thx man, much appreciated. It was an awesome day, really was. Great cars and people. My first time using this editing software, I'll get better over time. Gotta start someplace...lol. Thx for watching, Cheers!!

The channel is still up and coming. Thx for watching, more content to come. Cheers!!

Polaris is a great machine. All machines have there ups and downs. It all comes down to care and preventative maintenance. Thanks for the comment.

Polaris have more issues than Honda.

Apologies for the late response, I never got a notification...lol. It's about 450ish...if that. I really don't have lots done to it. Tune, headers, and intake. I did things to make it better, like adjustable suspension, sway bars, oil cooler and big brake kit, along with a set of inexpensive track tires. Its an all around driver aimed towards the track. C5 is a great base to work off of. More Video to come. Thanks for commenting and be safe.

Lolol

Yeah she's pretty quick from a dig, and on a course, when it's dry that is. On a wet track, not worth so much compared to an AWD car, like an Audi.

It sure does...very happy with the car. It's only going to get better. Thx for reaching out and commenting. Be safe.

The owner did actually....lol. Put lots of amazing mods into it. Beautiful car, performed excellent on the track, and was getting faster lap times as the day continued, just couldn't beat the simple C5 z.
