High-Performance C5 Corvette Builder's Guide

The magnificent-looking C5 Corvette was a huge improvement over the previous Corvette, and offers a great platform for performance modifications. This book combines the best parts of a Corvette buyer's guide and a Corvette builder's guide.

There are also chapters on tweaking your suspension, drivetrain, brakes, wheels, and tires. This book features tables, charts, photos, and build sequences to explain how to correctly modify your C5 for drag racing, road racing, autocross, or simply to turn heads on cruise nights.
