Hey! Im doin good how are you? how is your T/A? Do you ever drive it? I never see it. Phil and the Cobra are good.. The 03 has been down for awhile, but the 96 is doin good, got some awesome times at the track with it.
You will have to come to bmp one night when we go.

For sure. The TA is a few weeks from runnin again. Just gotta put a few things back together first. Then it'll be another couple weeks before I turn up the boost as I've gotta get a new pulley.

I dont drive it much at all... With the slicks being the only tires I have for it at the moment, driving it on the street doesnt work out too well. Though I have driven it to a few car shows. I need to get some radials on that thing.

So what's the 96 runnin? You two need to see the Cobra I'm buildin! It's on the lift at Kyle's garage right now... I put some pics of it up in the lounge section.

Yeah I had to drive the 96 on slicks for a little while I know what you mean lol.. and so far the 96' has a best of 9.93 @ 142. Its definitley a fun car to drive... after driving that car, my car feels SO slow. after the 383 is built and we get the A.I. stuff on there my car will be a little better.

We gotta come check out that Cobra sometime! I saw the pics in the lounge :metal:

Hey Rick, so are you. Good to see you're still in the game.

let's hook up and tilt a couple sometime.

I'm down for that...on another note. Just got home from picking up another 93. This ones a Camaro, going to be a project between Louvit and myself if we don't decide to part it out. Need to make sure it's not a 1LE first, how can I tell? The sticker in the glove box is too messed up to read but it's got manual windows, manual locks, manual seats, manual mirrors, auto tranny.

roadrocket
09-28-2008, 03:40 PM
I highly doubt it, Rick. There were only 19 1LE cars made in 93. Most of them went to Canada.
Not impossible though.
Does it have A/C or did it have by the belt routing diagram? If so, Not 1LE.
A/C on a 1LE was first offered starting in 94.
Does it have orig shocks? Orig 1LE shocks are extremely stiff for high speed road use. Mine lasted 90K mi.
Does it have Fog Lights? No 1LE's were made with them although they could be added, you would be able to tell if they were.
Does it have an Engine Oil Cooler? All 1LE's had them.
Next, does it have any options at all like CD player, remote Trunk release, power door locks, etc? If so again Not 1LE.
I have seen 4th gen Z28's with crank windows.
A few fully optioned Z28's were made using 1LE suspension parts with stronger LCA's from the factory. You would notice the difference in the bushing...heavier and fuller than the usual stock offering.
1LE's were made for the Canadian Players Associaton who were road racers and most if not all 93's were 6 spd with the M29 Viper Trans.
My stock reg weight is 3311
Lastly according to the 1LE site there are only 4 registered 1LE's left. (2 yrs ago) so your chances of coming across one is les than hitting the lotto.
Hope this helps.
If you still think it might be I'd like to look at it.

also, Rick, I have the complete 93 Repair manual with all factory specs and troubleshooting if you need help with specs.

JFI there were 10 93 Firebird 1LE cars made. Only one was tagged for the street. A Yellow one used by GMHTP Mag for an R&D mule.

Hey Lou, Welcome and good luck.
This is a nice site for us LT1 owners. Been workin a bit on the garage part as it is like our site. Too bad I can't just C&P the info from one to the other.:D
In addition the Speed Density site is of particular interest to 93 C/F owners and 92-93 Corvette. I think Rick is also on it.

Running pretty good. chewed up a pushrod a couple weeks ago. the torque arm keeps coming loose at the rear for some reason. but getting it all sorted out. haven't hit it with the juice yet, ubt I am planning on filling the bottle and giving it a try this weekend at fl2k. my friend is letting me borrow some tires, hopefully I dont grenade the rear
