I have a 96 coupe lt4. It's been rebuilt, torqhead conversion and coil packs. C6 ecu. Brand new pilot sport as4, corsa exhaust. Torch red, or please arrest me officer red. Just did the weather stripping. 67k miles. She was a single owner car, garage kept all her life. I'm having an absolute blast driving it.

I own a Torch Red/Black Sport 1996 LT4 convertible and love it but don’t forget the 29 1997 LT4 Firehawks!

After I retired and a bit of a search, found a nice all stock lo mile LT4 . Hard to find one that has not been beat up or modified. Lot of fun to drive, lot of car for the money. Thanks for the C4 content. Hard not to like all corvettes in general.

I test drove a few LT1s and a few LT4s and was sold on the LT4. It's like having the rev-happy nature of an import engine with the low end grunt and sound of a good ol American V8...Best of both worlds!

Love this video and love my LT4 1996 Collectors pulled it out of texas 2 years ago 90k miles needed work, did the work still doing stuff its a ripper and a looker!

I saw a youtube video about the LT4 c4 1996 engine. Some 200 engines were dyno tested, the results were the engine produced between 360 and 390bhp in standard tune. They already knew the 97 car had only 345bhp, so quoted the LT4 at 330hp in 1996.

I own a96 LT4 manual, 72,000 miles on it, and absent the uphill climb to get out, I love it. I bought as a retirement present, and put half the mileage on it since then. It will always be my summer toy, unless I hit the lottery, and I'll drive it til I need a hoist to get me out. LOL

Very well done, very informative. Looking forward to more re your LT4. I have a Grand Sport. Love the car. Engine so strong. Never once a mechanical issue. It’s been a a member of the family for 25 years. Every time I entertain the idea of selling it (about once every five years), my daughters and wife threaten legal proceedings.

My dream car is a 97 LT4 Camaro, these cars and that motor is so cool

Enjoyed these videos they get better each time. learned a lot about the 96 LT-4 thanks again.

Just now got around to seeing your video on the lt4. Made me feel very good as I have one in torch red now and enjoy driving it very much. Thank you for all the information on this car.

A friend had an LT4 back in the late 90s. He even let me drive it. It’s kinda what influenced me to get a Z06 later in 2001. They drive nice and do feel strong! Loved the info...

Thanks I enjoyed the information the production numbers are a great way to explain to my wife why we are going to Atlanta next week to pick up my 1996 C4 lt4 for my 96 SS Impala

Great video. Rescued a polo green lt4 last month out of a farm field. Currently going through it on my channel but watching people like you to learn the in and outs of this great car

One the best cars I ever owned and one the ones you wish you could keep forever!!

thanks for the info regarding the LT1 & LT4 drive train never knew that. Just starting to review the C4 abit...spent alot of time on the C3's

Got my LT4 in 08 and had it for nearly 10 yrs. Regret having to sell to pay some bills and I basically kept it nice for the next guy. lots of driveability upgrades but basically stock motor. I built a custom sound system for it but often drove with the music off and windows down. It had limo tint and muffler deletes and sport front spring when I got it. Was my first American car after coming,to the US and I did a lot of reaearch and spent a year looking for the right one. I got the fastest car you could buy for the money. The seller told me ‘it’ll do a burnout for an entire block’. That sealed it for me😁 Loads of torque in any gear but you can still redline it and it just kept pulling. Same torque curve as the original Gen III LS motor which makes me think the LT4 was meant to have the Hotcam from factory but they reigned it in just enough so it wouldn’t beat the new C5. That was a rule at GM! Lots of fun and I learned a lot from being in the club, a lot about vettes, Chevy cars and US automotive history in general. I was having emissions system problems when I let it go and had just replaced the entire system. It was just fast enough to get yourself in trouble and just old enough to keep you guessing😉 I would get another one. A C5 Z06 would better on paper, but just not the same charm as the LT4, with its modern electronics but old school style and attitude 👍🏼

I had a 1994 Collector Edition with the LT4. Loved it.

You got all kinds of GM gems 💎 around your house

man i wish i was your neighbor. id love the opportunity to get to work on all those cars.

Great informative channel and videos. I learned a few things about the lt4 cars today!

Good C4 content. Cool to hear from someone with intimate knowledge of my favorite generation. I love my '96 LT-1. It has always been a reliable car and surprisingly quick / fast. I've taken it on long trips and it gets 25 mpg (+/-) as long as I can keep my foot out of it. Thank you for sharing. Take care

i have a triple black 1996 LT4 corvertte, enjoy it very much. i also have a 2004 z06 LS6 which is faster nicer vette but i still prefer to drive the LT4 convertable.

I'd put a stock 96 LT4 up against any stock 97-2000 LS1 any day of the week... An LT4 just pulls hard and when the LS1 starts to fall off the LT4 is still pulling hard..

I've owned my white 96 LT4 for 5 years now. My original plan was to get rid of it after a few years but I enjoy the car too much. A few go fast goodies and the car is now a sleeper...if a corvette can be classified as that...

I just bought a 96 collectors edition 6 speed. Awaiting delivery is killing me.

GREAT VIDEO & EDUCATION !!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!!

Another awesome video

Hey Brian, a really good video to do on the 96 lt4 cars would be the Dana rear and the 345 gear ratio. That would be a great, informative video 🔥

I have a 1985 corvette i swap a lt4 in it with a lt4 hot cam love driving it

my 96 LT4 has a combo stereo cd/cassette player. the 330hp was under rated, mine dyno'd at 376hp.

Good formative video! Thanks

Just bought LT4 drive train for my 96 CE roller. 🤗🤗

The remaining LT4's went into 1997 Camaro SS special editions (30th anniversary)

What would i have to do to my lt1 to make it just as fast as an lt4? naturally aspirated. Thanks so much.

I think They even had raised runner cylinder head

Hey bud you know your stuff they detune the LT1 and put the motor in the Impalas the Caprices and the Camaro I Rocks. And they also detuned the ECU's so they wouldn't outperform the Chevy Corvette. GMC is always under rating their horsepower also because of the competition. The 90s Shelby Mustang had the ZF 6-speed transmission that was a wicked car.🤓🤓🤓🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Firehawks had lt4’s also in 97

Hi, after watching your videos I am confused regarding my 92 C4. When I bought it 2 yrs ago, I was told that the engine was swapped. The LT1 was replaced with the LT4 along with the automatic changed for the ZF 6 speed and also the Dana 36 changed for the Dana 44 differential. I know this because of the bolt pattern on the differential casing, with help from KZfaq. It has the 2 bolt and not the one single bolt in the center. This car was born an LT1 auto as stated on the build sheet and window sticker, which I have. As I am not a mechanic and know little about the vast knowledge of corvettes, I took their word for it because the manifold has the distinct red powder coat. Anyway, when you mentioned that the LT4 does not have the EGR valve it made me question. I took a further look and there it was, the EGR valve. So, my first impression was that this was not an LT4 and that the manifold was just coated red. Then, when you opened the oil cap and showed the LT4 stamping, I opened mine and there it was, the LT4 stamp. Maybe you can shed a little light on this given your knowledge of corvettes. I looked to find the original owner, to no avail. I was told by the person that sold me the car, I'm the third owner, that the original owner was a GM employee. Also, the fuel pressure regulator is on the opposite side. Talk about confusing. the car has 55350 miles on it and is in excellent condition, runs great. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for any help you can offer. I commented on one of your videos previously regarding this car but not to this extent.

just watched your lt4 video & sure glad i bought one. I was fortunate enough to get a steal on a barn find. Mines a ce silver w/ black. bought it in alaska from a guy in 2018 that parked it in 2001 had 3986 org. miles. He had a surgery on his back & couldn't enjoy it any more. I shipped it to phoenix & would love to drive it more, but trying to keep miles down on it. Now has just over 11,000 mi. on it. Next to my 55 belair it's my fav. Like i said wanted to keep miles down on it, but it's hard not to drive it. What's your opinion on not driving it as to resale someday? when I bought it the plates said july 2001, I have the orig front 2 tires & other than weather checking & old age they look new. also have orig air filter & it's clean as a u know what. 2 big thick owners manuels in great shape & the small one in D condition.

I bought a '94 Corvette that has an automatic transmission but it has a LT4 motor in it I believe it's a '94 I got a manual with 94 I got two manuals but I don't know I think it's a '94 and it has automatic transmission but it has a LT4 motor

I'm looking into possibly purchasing one of these. 54k mile all stock collectors edition. I've had a few lt1 fbodys in the past but mostly ls powered stuff in recent years. I'm also kinda leaning towards a c5 6spd possibly. I'm more comfortable with the ls engine platform far as working on stuff but not a huge fan of the trans axle setup c5 vettes have. What would you pick between the two?

How about a 4 speed set up for a 77 Corvette Everything to do it with

So if I have the opportunity to buy an LT4 I should instead of an LT1? Btw love the channel I'm currently shopping for a C4 6spd thanks

Is the LT1 motor optional for automatic and 6-speed??? Your knowledge and history content is awesome keep the videos coming😎😎😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Has a LT4 engine ever been dyno tested, I'm sure it put out more than 330 HP.

That's an LS Killer.

What's the reason why there was no automatic LT4? LT1 at4 vs ZF6 apparently at4 wad faster by a second

I bought a motor out of a 96 corvette to replace a blown one in my Z28 of the same year can I expect a power increase? I know it shouldn't be much and also how will I be able to tell if its an LT4 or not thanks in advance guys

Could you possibly get an lt4 into an automatic 92? Or use gms hot cam kit?

IS IT POSSIBLE TO BUILD AN LT4 WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS?

what do u think is a good price for mine now that it's 25 years old & 11,000 miles

97 camaros got 6 speeds that im sure of And the lt4 box engine lt4 was faster more tork . 185 intakes made more torq and were faster

I replayed our comments a couple times , and thought I heard you say the lt1 corvette, specially 92 came with auto only. Mine has a six speed. Did I misunderstand you. Would like to know more.

Is $25k for an 11,000 mile example too much? Same owner car since 97’ it’s polo green with tan interior lt4 manual.

Did GM stop making these engines? The only reason would be compared to a 3800 V6 gutless wonder. It was too good of an engine.

What you think about the L98 engine on the 85 tune port vette

Interesting fact about the stripper cars: their fathers weren’t around in their lives.

Is that what a “Hot Rod” engine is??? a 30 hp difference from an LT1?

You need a longer driveway .

Is it possible to own too many cars? 😉

Are you still today a car salesman for Chevrolet?
