Guest: Corvette Coilovers
Installing coilovers on a C5 Corvette seems straightforward, but there are a lot of small details that often get overlooked. In this video, I cover some of the lessons learned from installing and setting up Silver’s NeoMax coilovers on my C5, including preload and ride height, rear clearance and mount orientation, damper adjustment, and other installation details I didn’t see covered elsewhere.

Installing Silver’s NEOMAX coilovers on a C5 Corvette? In this video, I go over some of the biggest tips, lessons learned, and things I wish I knew before installing the suspension on my C5. The C5 Corvette suspension is a little different from a typical coilover setup, especially when it comes to removing the factory transverse leaf springs, getting the coilovers installed, and setting everything up correctly afterward.

In this video, I walk through the design and engineering behind my 3D-printed radiator support skid plates for the C5 Corvette — and why I intentionally chose a high-performance polymer instead of metal. To get the geometry right, I reverse engineered the OEM radiator support shape using photogrammetry, allowing me to capture complex curves and mounting locations directly from the car without relying on factory CAD data.

Often, very easy maintenance items on cars are overlooked! In particular, on the C5 Corvettes, it is VERY important to make sure all of the weather seals stay properly lubricated to avoid cracking and dry rot which may lead to water leaks!

After years of this thing sitting on a shelf (from just being distracted with doing other repairs and modifications to the car), I finally installed my MGW short throw shifter! Man, what a difference this thing makes! My C5 feels like a whole new car, largely because the shifter is one of the main driver touch input areas on the car!

Thought I'd throw together an impromptu video documenting the recent issue I experienced regarding my C5 Corvette's battery. Trying to drill down on if this was a silly mistake or a result of a parasitic battery drain..!!

Thought I'd take swing at designing a custom set of fender emblems for my C5 Corvette that take inspiration from the font used with the C8 Corvettes! NOTE: These emblems are 100% my own design and are not reproductions of any trademarked GM design.

One of the pet projects I've been wanting to pursue recently has been setting up and organizing my garage toolbox with aerospace-esque shadow foam! For awhile I could not find relatively affordable shadow foam for the sizes I needed. I was not about to spend over $100 for FOAM.

There are countless videos out there discussing air quality concerns around 3D printing. My take is, if it is even the slightest concern or possibility, why not take as safe of an approach as possible. In this video I go over my calculated approach to create a safe printing enclosure given I print a lot of ASA material for my car projects and parts.
