    Thanks Tommy.

    I'm actually in Tampa and originally thought my first one was an EM. But it wasn't.

    I'm having a hard time finding the generation time line for the EM's. If it's an 88 I would

    think that would help. I appreciate your feedback!

    Tommy,

    As an EM owner I have a couple of questions if you don't mind.

    I sold an Elegant Motors Replica last year and am now looking at an EM.

    The suspension is all corvette, front and rear. Looks like C4 do to the aluminum parts.

    It currently has a Chevy engine in it but the price seems fair.

    So my question, how can I quickly identify the generation?

    VIN # EM427SC0746012588.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Mike

    renaissance man liked post by Tommy On thread : Clutch pedal adjustment
    If you go with a rubber block, I'd have bolts long enough to go through the pedal, the block and the arm. I imagine it will have to resist shear forces as well as push. An aluminum block might be...

    renaissance man liked post by Tommy On thread : Clutch pedal adjustment
    My opinion is that extending that rod by 2" could cause two problems based on the geometry of the pedal assembly. First, it would move the pedal both up and out making the pedal motion more up/down...

    Some years ago I had a leak in the Griffin radiator in my EM Cobra. I took it to a radiator repair shop and they fixed it with epoxy. So maybe there is hope for yours.

    Backfire (through the exhaust) on deceleration is often due to an exhaust leak allowing air into the exhaust system. It could be at the header or any connections downstream from there.

    Keep in mind that timing is more than just the distributor placement. Given the years of inactivity, you may want to check the centrifugal and vacuum advance mechanisms too.
