Would someone please explain for me the differences between a Corvette

designated as L82 and one of the same year designated as L48? Thank you.

The L48 is the base engine... with lower horsepower...then the extrra cost,

higher horsepower

L82...

Generally about 30 Hp difference between the two..

the L48 has a two bolt main the L82 has a 4 bolt main. The L82 is a slightly

better made engine and had more hp. To be honest though the old Vette

engines left a lot to be desired in the HP dept. I had two L48 Vettes (a 77

and a 80) they drove fine and were OK cars. If you plan on hot rodding the

car the L82 is a better engine to start from. If I remember correctly the

L82 had better connecting rods and better crank too.

Title: Declaration of Improper Parking
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2009 14:34:53 +0000
Author: Nathan Schmidt

When in the Course of my normal day, it becomes necessary for one person to consume more resources than anyone else may choose to consume, and to assume my greater importance on this earth, that I have more rights than you to which the Laws of Nature and my God entitle to me, with no respect for other opinions of mankind requires me to declare my superiority of choice over everyone else.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that my need for parking is greater than thou, that I am endowed by my Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are proximity, convenience, and the persistence of apathy.  That to secure these rights, I institute my vehicle among others, driving just powers from the tons of steel and plastic, that whenever any parking space could hold my girth, it is my right to take it despite the vehicles around me, and institute my will, for my convenience of consumerism and disorganizing others, so that I may be most happy.  Prudence, indeed, is lost on my will long established should not be changed for guilt or logic; and accordingly all entitlement hath shewn, that mankind is disposed to suffer, for my evils are insufferable, than to park in another spot by eliminating my convenience to which I am obviously entitled.  But when a long train of cars and trucks, pursuing invariably the same intent evinces a wrath to extremes, where it is my right, it is my sole entitlement, to throw out common courtesy and decency, to create my own opportunities, and provide new parking for my needs.  Such has been the impatience and greed of my life; and now is the necessity of my ego which constrains me to do nothing else other than my own choosing.  The history of my fenders and doors is displayed in dents and dings, all having direct consequence of my actions of absolute superiority over a parking lot.  To prove this, I dare you to park next to me.
