Thanx for the reply mickeytee! Still not sure if it’s the problem - only squeals when it heats up & only at idle. Fortunately found one this evening on eBay- used with about 52,000 miles on it.

Just an update!!Still have the issue - the one Corvette specialist didn’t want to touch it. Have been to 4 mechanics & started with front flexplate/flywheel - which has been a discontinued part.

Thanx Dan - We're really looking forward it ourselves!

Vinman (Vince and Lorie) all set - reservations confirmed - see y'all there Fri - Sun! And I actually did manually put my roof up about a month ago - just reading the manual it took about 45 minutes! Next time (hopefully never again!) would probably only take about 20 minutes. Had a bad switch...

Hope it was a great one Bruce!! See ya Bowling Green!!

I'll be doing everything in my power to make the Homecoming event!! Sincere thanx to all involved for organizing!! Vinman
