Leave those tires and wheels the way they are dude, looks way better like that, you’ll realize that if you decide to go bigger. Car is perfect like it is
I'd say practice hole shots with those rear wheels. If you do get an extra set, go 1 inch diameter smaller wheel in the back and compair 60' times. Adjust air pressure as needed and see which hooks
Sweet ride! I have a C3 but I'm starting to look at the '95/'96's because of cars like yours. Oh, you're right... so many C5's and C6 and C7's out there. Nice cars but don't want what everyone else has.
Awesome C4 !!!. I have a '96 , LT-1 C4, and wouldn't trade it for anything. It has great lines, and has a great power to weight ratio. Yours must be a torque animal with a 383 stroker engine. Very cool.
Super nice C4 bud, I'd take a built C4 over a stock C5 any day of the week. (I purchased a stock low km 94' C4 LT1 6spd this spring, hoping for headers/exhaust/port&polish heads next year)
I had one back in 92 had a friend of mine helped me mod the hell out of it it went 11.9 kicked everybody's ass back in those days good looking car sure miss mine!
Before I got my C5 I had a 97 Z28 6 speed. It made about 380-400whp, it was a absolute beast compared to my bolt on C5. This makes me want a OBD2 C4 6 speed. Nice car brother.
You did great man! Keep that C-4! They are already starting to increase in value. Plus, There are less and less on the road! That car is beautiful. I made the mistake of putting C-6 wheels on my 94 and regret it. Will be going back with the exact same wheels you have.
Nice build bro I got my 97 T/A Ram Air LT1 w/ ported polished heads full exhaust high rise roller rockers lightweight crankshaft AFE hydra-rev kit and the 4L80 JET Performance swap my Dyno numbers @ 4700 ft above Sea level. Around 410 hp/390 ft/lbs before I parked it a long time ago because I got red flagged by the stupid DMV😢. Sounds outstanding and healthy. Makes me miss my baby sooooo much 😢
Exactly that opti - spark garbage is a power robber for sure. I had the entire MSD ignition system with the distributor and the high voltage coil and the 6AL old school captive discharge box and the minute I switched to individual coils from a stock GTO LS2 and did the reluctor wheel and the better ecm it feels more responsive and easier to tune. My next step is to get the complete HP Tuners ecm and software programs then your options are wide open for tuning and upgrading in the future
Way to go on doing your own thing and not succumb to the automotive status quo (ls-swap the world type mentality). The gen II LT1 is a strong platform that still to this day has lots of potential and better parts options due to current technology and the past decade of RnD on cam grinds. Keep up the good work and enjoy that sick ride!
BEAUTIFUL!! lOVE MY 1995 C4 also. Seeing this video almost makes me want to paint mine black, But, I think I'll leave her the Beautiful Frosted Dark Green she already is. Love your Vet!!
Nice car and sweet sounding motor. I'm building something similar at this very moment (well having it built) but a little more mods to the motor. Mine is a 93 6spd. AFR heads, Comp Cams 224/230, 1.6 ProForm rockers, stock block machined/zero decked/clearanced, Eagle stroker kit, Wiseco forged pistons, 58X timing system, coil on plug, full sequential FI with the Holley Dominator EFI to replace stock ECU, and on and on down to even rebuilding the steering rack, that sort of thing. Doing a C4 'cause I happened on a cheap car (3k) that had good bones, I prefer the look of a C4, and - same as you - it is something different. One thing I am doing that you might consider is running 18x11's (Forgestar CF5's in my case) on all four corners with 315/30/18 tires (Rival S for me). It looks great, will give me lots of traction with A TON of initial bite on the front end. 19's would probably be too much but regardless a nice build.
Reminds me of my father's c4 1985 corvette he got rid of it because it required to much matinence. I remember he rebuilt the whole engine and everything and it was only worth 5,000 at the time.
Nice clean C4! It sounds stock to me! No lopping from the cam. I love the car, it looks exactly like mine, another black on black on black 1996, I have both tops, I have chrome 5 spoke c5 wheels and black leather c5 seats in mine! I still have all the C4 things to make it all stock again when I sell it. I am doing a custom paint job on mine now, black with metallic's and pearls in special areas. Very subtle! Custom paint is one of my hobbies for the last 40 years. Good luck with your car and thanks for the video!
Beautiful Corvette Nice Work Sir love what you do with the motor love the sound of that thing man sounds tough I have a C6 I love driving it everyday doing different mods good luck brother keep up the work
I have a black 1984. With a 406. Cross fire injection. Been 262 mph.at 5800 rpm s. The motor red lines 9.ooo.rpms. I'm thinking about putting 3 injector carbs. See if I can get to 9 grand. That would give Max 1075 cfm. My wenter project. I can already beet the 2019 vetted top speed. And at about 255 mph I moved the steering wheel and all for wheels started to slip on the edge. I love my c-4
Beast setup mad props super clean I likes your choice of exhaust and wheels 19in in the rear and 18in in front keep em chrome they will look even more aggressive look but the stance now looks badazz.
i own a mint red metallic 1995 i paid $3500 Canadian and painted it $2400 new optispark installed $800 new alternator $400 installed stands me about $7300 thats about $5500 american i will never find a car this good for the money
Car looks awesome!!!, but...the front tires are bigger series than rear. They look like 50s in front and 40s in rear. I know the clearance is not high in front, but the look of those tires is the ONLY thing that throws it off. Love the color and minimal chrome. The exhaust sounds great too. Nice job.
Dude very nice build. I have 28k in my 93 convertible 40th. 383, Procharger, 6spd, LTCC, DynaSpark, long tube, 4:56 gears, Line Lok, Ram Clutch. ZR1 rims, Love It. I am setting mine up for Drag Week Racing. Like the front grill. Was a pain to cut it?
Seems you have a very base model 96. The seats and the lack of any controls for power seats or suspension give it away. I used t have one similar to yours. But that also means the rear end is a Dana 36 with the base 2.59 ratio. That might need addressing. Cool car and great sound and frankly a great foundation to build from.
That's what I've heard the entire time I was spanking everyone in town with my almost stock T/A LT1 but after grenading 3 built 4L60 transmissions I finally made the choice to modify and fit a built 4L80 from TCI and Jet Performance with a 3600rpm High stall billet torque converter and a nasty shift kit that stuns and amazes everyone I ran with. They would always say "that's an automatic transmission? How the hell did you pull me so far off the line? " 😂
One of the most beautiful c4 s I ever saw. Is 383 the horse power? I like the tint on the front fog lights!! I have a 96 c4. I will tint mine now. I was told not to slam the hood with doors open. It could potentially chip or damage the paint. what I do is lower the hood and push down one side at the time until it clicks into the locked position. Thanks for the video!!
383 C4 anyday over a C5 dude. Plus C4 interior way better than C5. I'm currently tuning my new 383 stroker on my 85 c4. Can't wait to pick it up 470HP and 450ft.lb torque
Leave the wheels 19" is too much. Just seen one with 19" in the rear and it looked off. Just put some spacers to kick your wheels out for the perfect stance!
It’s a comp cam, I forget the specs but the exhaust is melrose long tube headers running to a straight pipe with X pipe cross over and dumps out the rear quarter panel
Este automóvil es una belleza!! E impresionante, pero lo único que no me gusta son las líneas que son muy rectas a comparación con los C3!! Claro, yo entiendo que hay que modernizar las cosas!! Pero C3 es la impresionante máquina que gusta🎖️🎖️🎖️👍🏻
Young man you did that car Justice it is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Enjoy
One of the best looking C4's ever.
Leave those wheels man, the car looks super clean like that. Bigger wheels start to look tacky real fast.
I agree but if I slam it with 19's and 18's I think that'll look bad ass
@@tylerhorne196 do what makes u happy. Nice car btw
Yea I have to agree. I would hold back on putting the 19s on. Skinny ass tires rarely look good
I still have those same wheels theyre just gloss black right now
I agree with guitar MAX ! plus bigger wheels = expensive tires
Was never a huge C4 fan, but you’ve got this car PERFECT
Leave those tires and wheels the way they are dude, looks way better like that, you’ll realize that if you decide to go bigger. Car is perfect like it is
I'd say practice hole shots with those rear wheels. If you do get an extra set, go 1 inch diameter smaller wheel in the back and compair 60' times. Adjust air pressure as needed and see which hooks

Bad ass man!!! Beautiful. I have a 1994 LT1. Love the C4s.
GFOFO Goncalves same!!
Same here too. Mine is yellow
What’s the difference between a c4 and a lt1 or are they both the same?
@@armandochirino2240 Lt1 is the motor on my c4.
Super nice C4 bud, I'd take a built C4 over a stock C5 any day of the week. (I purchased a stock low km 94' C4 LT1 6spd this spring, hoping for headers/exhaust/port&polish heads next year)
Lloyd Eliot does nice work on heads/cam combos.
Same especially if it was a manual
Outstanding car! I was looking forward to hearing the engine breathe alittle or maybe a launch but just what you gave us was awesome. Nice car
stunning car,keep it,drive it,love it!! do not change a single thing,its perfect
ive always loved the design of the late model C4’s
One of the most beautiful cars ever
I had one back in 92 had a friend of mine helped me mod the hell out of it it went 11.9 kicked everybody's ass back in those days good looking car sure miss mine!
That's sweet and stands out from the crowd. Not sure about the side exit exhaust but, to each their own. Beautiful.
Awesome! Sounds like a boat at lake ozark
Very very nice..you must feel like the king of the world driving this beautiful beast. I wish you two much love.
My brother has it now, he’s about 30k deep into making it race car, I’m posting an update video soon!
A1. Topnotch. Love the sound of the comp cam.👍🏾👍🏾
Cleanest looking c4 I've seen. Gotta get one someday
Before I got my C5 I had a 97 Z28 6 speed. It made about 380-400whp, it was a absolute beast compared to my bolt on C5. This makes me want a OBD2 C4 6 speed. Nice car brother.
This C4 is a classic..this car looks better than most cars today.and when the engine is exposed..wow.. super car that people don't want to admit.
imagine the folks pulling up to the rear , and are like , "dude, where's your exhaust ?'' sweet ride
razorman
“Oh, it’s electric.”
I’ve always thought of this car as kind of a 90’s retro car so the more chrome you have on it, the better it fits that 90’s look lol.
Maybe because it is an 80's-90's car lmfao.
What other way would you look at it?
You did great man! Keep that C-4! They are already starting to increase in value. Plus, There are less and less on the road! That car is beautiful. I made the mistake of putting C-6 wheels on my 94 and regret it. Will be going back with the exact same wheels you have.
Your wheels and tires are perfect save your money C fours are so cheap now the money you spend on wheels could buy another C4

Just bought my first C4 and I love it. Your vette is awesome man thanks for sharing.
Yeah, I wouldn’t touch a thing, it’s perfect. The wheels are balanced very well. Well done!
Hey i love what you did man. Just needs a 24x setup so you can really dial in the ECM. Thanks for sharing
Exactly that opti - spark garbage is a power robber for sure. I had the entire MSD ignition system with the distributor and the high voltage coil and the 6AL old school captive discharge box and the minute I switched to individual coils from a stock GTO LS2 and did the reluctor wheel and the better ecm it feels more responsive and easier to tune. My next step is to get the complete HP Tuners ecm and software programs then your options are wide open for tuning and upgrading in the future
Way to go on doing your own thing and not succumb to the automotive status quo (ls-swap the world type mentality).

Always felt like the C4 corvettes were massively underrated, very rare bird too see those going around nowadays. Awesome car!
Beautiful Corvette; great looking wheels!
Those are the best vette wheels ever and that corvette is freakin bad ass!
thanks man
Beautiful looking & sounding vette you got there bud!! The C4 is my favorite❗

one cannot simply tell me all this and not post a video of it, you're killing me smalls,
Build will be finished in Sept. The motor should be assembled next week. I'll post something when its finished.
I got a c4 to but I got a l98 what should I do to get more power using that engine and I want my car to sound as loud as yours
Rabbi Schlomo appreciate bro I live in Savannah Georgia but I’ve got a problem right now with my car
Rabbi Schlomo when I drive and press the gas pedal the car bogs down it just recently died at in front of my house Idk what to do

Very nice car man good work. Looks like my 95 LT1 Camaro. All blacked out with chrome wheels looks so clean.
Nice ride. Manual transmission next time. You'll love it kid.
What...no acceleration down the street? I wanna hear it RUN!
Damn that C4 looks and sounds badass! Good job. I see you’re from SC. Me too! 👏🏻🎉😎

@@tylerhorne196 I wish you the best!!
Are the exhaust cutouts custom(the one's in the bumper)? Just curious cause I really like the look of it
you can find generic cut outs all over online, I believe these are the grisly brand cut outs
Car looks amazing great work
I also thought about da C4 whips, so many dudes be havin C5s or C6s, shii lemme be different I like da cam homie 😂🔥
That thing is perfect cleanest C4 out there
Bad ass car man and agreed the wheels already look good..
C4’s are underrated, makes them much cheaper than some other generations.
Helluva job dude! Need to get her on the dyno! Love it!
shes been on the dyno more than a few times! ill post some eventually
Nice vette Tyler...right color too black on black 8-)

Back when it was in this video... was it on the factory ecu or some kind of aftermarket computer?
Any chance you got a dyno sheet?
Have a 95’ manual, no engine mods but I’ll get bored someday...🤷🏾♂️
That blue looks sick with the red lettering on the intake
Absolutely gorgeous and clean.

383 is the displacement. Usually, start with 350 SBC and stroke it.
this is the batmobile i grew up with reading comics.
Maan, that is a beauty !
This car is awesome don’t change a thing 🥇🏆
Daaamn your cars got rhythm 😂😂
Love love love those exhaust exits
Sweet man. I have a white 94 convertible. By the way, the sound 😎wow.
383 C4 anyday over a C5 dude. Plus C4 interior way better than C5.
I'm currently tuning my new 383 stroker on my 85 c4. Can't wait to pick it up 470HP and 450ft.lb torque
Mike Smith hey what mods do you have on your 350? I have a stock 350 tpi that just isn’t pushing much
Bro why you talking shiet about the C5 lol I got my C5 and I love the interior that's why I mainly got it ... It's all preference .
That's a beautiful car!
Great job! That has to be the smallest/mildest aftermarket cam ever fit that old LT1.
Be different!!!! I love it!
Leave the wheels 19" is too much. Just seen one with 19" in the rear and it looked off. Just put some spacers to kick your wheels out for the perfect stance!
Beautiful car.
sounds sweet , which exhaust is on this? and cam?
It’s a comp cam, I forget the specs but the exhaust is melrose long tube headers running to a straight pipe with X pipe cross over and dumps out the rear quarter panel
