Tires are about 8 months.
Tested more.
Vibration in all gears same rpm.
Pushed brake to see iff TCC disengaged, it did.
Torque braked a bit at stop, and vibration is present.
Opened hood, went back and forth with reverese to drive. Engine Barely moved. Idles at 800rpm.
In nuetral nothing.

93 C4, Okay, at 2500 rpm and at 4500 rpm I have a vibration under medium to heavy throttle. Does not matter if AC is on or not.
In neutral, or park, the problem is not there.
Had main drive shaft checked. Good, and balanced.
Half Shafts have zero movement, and as driveshaft, has spicer u joints. They are a few years old, but very few miles.
I replaced end links on rear sway bar. Rubber was gone.
Hal Shocks, no leaks.
DRM Long tube headers since 2001 era, and OEM cat back exhaust.
700R4/4L60 Pro Built Automatic with Vigilante 2800 stall
New tires.
Center beam has ZF Docs plates, and they are torque per FSM.
When you get on it, half or full it feels like something is vibrating/hitting the floor boards. Feels like exhaust is hitting. But, when I was under there, I cant see where the exhaust could be hitting. Maybe under torque, it is. Motor mounts are tight, I just did that a couple days ago.
So, thats all I can think of.
Thoughts, suggestions?

Yep. Just got back. List of repairs, dishwasher just crapped out, and other things may take a few days.
I need a person to take care of my house when gone.. Clean, outside of home.
All I have is a cat sitter, and yard guy.
Car is not on priority right now. Within a few days I will get to it.

Still not home yet. I went under and did some more checks. Its damn tight.. As soon as I turn the wheel, the pinion/driveshaft moves. When you move wheel back and forth fast you hear the clunking, as if the gears are going from front to back of teeth, if that makes sense.
The ticking I hear is rear of transmission in tail shaft of 700R4..
I will be back in a couple weeks, and if weather permits I will dig further into it. Right now, not 100% sure WTH is clunking.
I would think big cam, and car barely on idle cruising is causing it.

After extensive datalogging, and the tuner working to tweak my engine a little, I decided to look at the underside.
Well, U Joints are solid, spicers from about 3000 miles ago. They were the proper ones everyone recommended on many forums.
Anyways, I moved the wheels back and forth while I had the car in neutral. The diff is definitely clanking.
I recorded it with the phone. hard to tell but, with hand on diff, or a screwdriver, I can here allot of metal clanking.

Not sure what would be wrong in the D44, but it was rebuilt with new gears by Ikerds before he passed in early 2000's.
Its seen its fair share of drag racing in Hawaii, but nothing since it shut down in 2005 and or since I have been back on mainland, in 2012.
Just need a recommendation of a rebuilder, or one laying around. I have 3.33 gears, used. Just looking at options.
In all honesty, 3.73 are too much for the 396LT1. Lots of rpms at 80mph..

Back again. Old sensor was 2500 ohms at 75 degrees. According to this chart it was off. I am going to keep fiddling with it, check it in hot water, freezer etc..
Reconnected battery, all is well, as far as code being gone.

Changed CTS and checked for codes. Still there.
Going to disconnect battery and check later.
No Check Engine light in dash. Wierd.
5 volts at pins to it with key on.

They got back to me and stated I have a code 15, low coolant temp sensor. Interesting, as I have no check engine light. I scanned the car with my OBD cable. Nothing, but Datamaster had it on there. They asked for me to address that, then relog data.
Hmm..
I imagine it is the one in the water pump.. Let me go find a good one...

I will research the timing. I think 34 is max for a LT1 at idle. So, I may have to bring the other timings down a few points and blend it..

I had changed the lock up to 55mph, made no difference.
I am hoping PCMforless address the timing issue. I could do it myself..Or wait for them to get back to me.
Today was tinker with 4runner day..

After looking at the run I just did, its not the torque converter.
I noticed the closed TPS spark advance is 4 to 6 degrees difference then when it barely opens. I am thinking that the timing is going back and forth causing it to surge/buck a little.
Converter was locked, at least according to the Data log..

Hey, I included a TTS datamaster run, if anyone is able to look at it. TCC is solid the whole time, not locking and unlocking.
So, I imagine, at very low throttle when locked, its surging.
Rpms are at about 1500 to 1800 rpms, 45 to 54 mph in run.
Very low TPS %. So, its an off idle issue. ]
Wonder if it is IAC. I change them often as they just suck..

1993 Corvette, 396LT1 A4 2800 rpm converter Vigilante , 42# injectors, 3.75 gears, long tubes, heated O2 sensors. Runs great, with the exception of cruising at about 1800 rpm , plus or minus 200rpm, in OD.. It seems to buck a little, like a little surging, causing the driveline to slap, like hearing u joints are broke.
U Joints are new, driveline is solid with D44, Ikerds diff, and I cant move any of the half shafts or driveshaft by hand when in the air.
If I drop a gear, to 3rd it all goes away, even when I get in same rpm. Maybe not as pronounced due to speed, but I cant hear it
So, in tuning, what parameters can assist a barely above idle/throttle to keep car from bucking/surging a little.
TCC speeds for lock up and unlock. Right now its as follows.
TCC is lock 47mph low
42mph Unlock low gears
TCC lock high gears 56mph
TCC unlock high gears 42
TCC unlock prevention speed threshold is 64
Can I have a large spread on the lock vs unlock speeds, ie 60 lock and 40 unlock?
I am going to do some TTS Datamaster files to see if electronically the ecm is unlocking and locking today. If not, it must be surging from cam. Not small,

The balancer was an old balancer. For some strange reason I put the old balancer back on and took the underdrive stuff off.
I will put it back on, as I have new belt, tensioner and pulleys. Front end of reciprocating items are new, except balancer..
Still going to take off AC Compressor to the side and put brackets in if I can..
When I get home, after travel again.

I finally received, and came home from traveling, to my new door panels for the Ruby Vette.
They are better quality than OEM, thicker plastic. Here are some pics for observation.

I have been thinking about this....

There is a back brace from the alternator across... plus a brace from the AC to the header.

I suspect the vibration has been there for a long time... those braces are designed to two things - quell vibrations and reinforce the main bracket. The belt pulls on the compressor, the bracket stops that pull.

I have seen where people will use a longer bolt with a spacer to attach the bracket to the head. I would try that trick.

Hey, I had the bracket that goes from the oustside of the compressor to the # 3 cylinder. I used the long factor studs, as my headers allowed it. Then I put spacers in to put it the distance that another forum member said to use when he put Exotic Muscle headers in.
Now, I have the bracket on the alternator that goes to the intake manifold.
I do not have the two other brackets installed. One goes to the alternator to the header, and the other is on the inside of the compressor to the header. Both of these go to header bolt two on the #1 cylinder. I may tackle this when I get home.
#3 isnt going to work anymore as I think the timesert came loose with the long oem bolt, being too long when torqued down..I have put a ARP header bolt back in with green thread lock.. Temp fix..

My 92 did the same thing..... I never worried about it.
I have noticed it on a couple of other LTX cars I built for other people.... it bothered one guy so I fabricated a brace bracket down to the second header bolt,similar to the factory one, and it stopped enough to make him happy.

I don't know why your car didn't do it from the start but every one I have put headers on or taller valve covers where you remove the brace to the alternator and or the support rods that go to the manifold vibrated noticeably afterwards.
Will

The only thing that has been done is the tires. Reason I say this as before, the tires were old and didnt grip at all.
Now that I have stickier, fresher tires, I think the vibration is noticeable as I wasnt able to do 2 to 3rd gear pulls often without breaking traction all the time.
The vibration may have been there since I put headers on.
Just a theory, over thinking maybe..

Not yet. When I get home in a week.
I will check the gap on AC clutch.
Other than that, winters coming, I will have allot of no ac needed time, lol.
I will find it..It might take a miracle, but I will.
I am going to redo the plugs too. Just for giggles..

He got ahold of me today, sent it to his shipping guy. We shall see.
I am on travel allot, so I like to be able to tell relatives when a package is coming..
My C4 is driven allot more after fixing allot of stuff, such as battery, alternator ( literally broke, went to 17.5 volts, took it and the battery out), hot lead on alternator, fan motors, tires, windshield wipers ( clean all contacts with Diotox? and replaced capacitor on back of board), radiator cap wasnt holding pressure, overflow wasnt holding fluid, brake fluid went to the floor over heated it a few times too many and so I went to DOT4.
Had dash updated via Batees?
Never ends, lol.

I do question their lack of communication, tho.

Hey Andy..
Yep their lack of communication, even though he pm me on the other forum. And, he told me to call their number. No answer.
I can only call and email so much.

I ordered door panels 3 months ago. I could never get a tracking number etc etc.
Finally, order is processed and completed. Still not tracking, no phone answers, no email answers.

From here I’d try looking at the entire accessory drive system. My reason is that on an 86 it sounded all the world like the steering pump was shot. Turned out to be a diode in the alternator.
My point is
A) yes, something may have happened when you changed the a/c clutch. But after re-reading your description, I think the compressor is reaching the end.
B) if you still have the old tensioner, try putting it back on in case you got a bad one.
C) check your water pump and other belt driven components. You never know what might turn up.
I know it’s not much to go on, but it might be worth a try, and it’s free to listen to.
Best of luck, again, I hope this helps.

I ended up putting a new tensioner on as the replacement was bad. Its quiet and barely moves when revving the engine.
93 has the LT1 water pump driven by camshaft.
I have one belt and everything is okay.
Remember, it only does it with AC and 2/3rds type pulls. Haven't tried it WOT, but AC would shut off during that pull.
I am wondering if , when I did the clutch, I need to check the gap, as the spacer is the only one that came out.
Maybe there is a mesaurement to check, and I might need to adjust.
If compressor is going out, I will need someone to vacuum it out and put back in.. R12 is an issue, unless they can pull it all out.
Or convert to 134A

Hey, I used OEM exhaust manifold bolts with spacers. I read an old thread where a person said the length needed etc.
It worked, but I only put on that goes from outside of ac compressor to center headers bolts at cylinder #3.
Thing is, I never had this vibration for many many years, drag racing, street running it hard.
The only issue I have had with the Compressor is the clutch burnt up about a year or so ago. I put a new one in. Wonder if I screwed that up. I took the bolt out, and put everything back in, including the washer/spacer.. Maybe that is wrong?

Its been a while since I have been on here. Need some help guys.
93 LT1. I have headers without the brackets that go to the exhaust manifolds since 2001.. Within the past couple months, the Air Conditioner vibrates when I do some hard accelerating.
If I turn it off and do the same acceleration, vibration goes away.
I out a stethoscope on the compressor while running and it sounds like a spinning machine, under load and off. No real change.
Belt is new, belt tensioner is new.
What would cause a vibration under load..

I took the best pics I could of above the pan. I cant see any fluid coming out of dipstick tube. I saw some on the shifter linkage. None on the servo. I cant physically see the TV cable area. But, I will next time I get under.

that fluid expands as it gets hot, IIRC... so get it up to op temp.

Hey, Been living the life as a contractor, LOL.
I will run it hot and see what happens. I think because it sat for so long it just leaked.

Where can the mark be. Mine is right at the grid where it is supposed to be when hot.. Its a little above cold. The engine oil temp was 140 degrees. Had some little droplets on bottom of pan. Pan is new with recommended high end gasket, dont remember the name but it was around 12 bucks, LOL.

It would be great if the aftermarket made plug and play wiring harness.

If thats the case you can do better than LS3 performance with LS3 money by modding a L92 or L76...... Good luck on your project.
I have to agree, dolar for dolar, better deal

Ok... I guess my math isn't communicating.

Try this... As much as I have tried, I just don't like the shape of the C5 Z06.
I agree. And the driving position sux. Not very sporty

My Dad, in Oregon, will get back with me tonight to give any data you may need. If you have any. I bought them from Genes Kar shop years ago. The package has only one date I could see in the pics he sent, which was 5/17. He is going to tell me the year though. I have pics if you want me to forward to an email account.

I had forgotten about these. Been sitting in a box for how many years I cant tell you. My Dad was looking through all my stuff my my final move for retirement, and found them, with brackets. Still good, used. If you know of anyone needing them, let me know.

I just rebedded my hps pads after months of boring driving. You forget that these pads bite hard when bedded properly and when hot. Ps, they stop squeeling when bedded properly,too
