Vehicle Description
The�Chevrolet Corvette (C5)�was the fifth generation of
the�Chevrolet Corvette�sports car produced by
the�Chevrolet�division of�General Motors�for the 1997 through
2004�model years.�A major change from its predecessor the�C4 the C5
featured a�hydro formed�box frame a design that offered an improved
structural platform especially for a�convertible�body style. To
improve handling the transmission was relocated to form an
integrated rear-mounted�transaxle�assembly. Connected to the
all-new�LS1�engine via a�torque tube the engine/transmission
arrangement enabled a 50-50% front-rear weight distribution. The
LS1 engine initially produced 345�hp (257�kW) subsequently
increased in 2001 to 350�hp (261�kW). The�4L60-E�automatic
transmission�carried over from previous models but the�manual�was
replaced by a�Borg-Warner T-56 6-speed�capable of a 175�mph
(282�km/h) top speed. Relative to the C4 the new platform and
structural design substantially reduced squeaks and rattles.
