The 1982 Corvette was the last of a generation which dated its basic body structure to 1968 and its chassis to 1963 the automatic transmission in 1982 Corvettes was a new four-speed unit with a torpue converter clutch operating in the top three gears. It used a higher first gear ratio (3.07:1) for improved acceleration.
Hoods of 1982 models had solenoid-operated doors to direct fresh air directly into the air cleaner during full throttle.
Chevrolet introduced "cross fire injection" on the 1982 Corvette. This wasn't fuel injection of the type available in 1957-1965 Corvettes: rather it combined two "injector" with Chevrolets computer command control system to achieve better economy, driveability and performance throughmore precise metering of the fuel. The Computer Command control itself was refined in 1982 so that it was capable of making eighty adjustments per second compared to ten the previous year.
The new fuel metering system used in 1982 included a positive fuel cutoff to prevent engine run-on (dieseling)
The charcoal air filtering element of the 1981 model was replaced with a paper element in the cross-fire injection
The exhaust system of 1982 models was redesigned with a smaller and lighter catalyic converter. The exhaust pipes leading into the converter were redesigned to deliver hotter exhaust gases to the converter to increase its efficiency. All 1982 Corvettes were buildt in the new Corvette plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Prodution was initiated in 1981 when 8,995 models wre built. Production for 1982 was 25,407.
The 1982 Corvette was the last model with optional radio packages that included an 8 track tape Because the 1982 is the last of the series, far fewer were sold and undoubtedly, because they were the best built in many ways. The 82's are particularly attractive to many collectors. Because of this, you should expect to pay 10/20% more for a 82 than you would for otherwise comparable 1980 or 1981.

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
