Chevette Stuff

Diesel Chevette World
Originally created by Bob Watts
Tons of information, tips, and tweaks from back in the day. There are some hidden files in the full archive still to be discovered like the unredacted carb mods page.

The Chevette Forum on Boardhost
A random excerpt from December 2007 from the long running but now defunct Vette_Man Boardhost forum. The Wayback Machine has multiple captures. https://web.archive.org/web/2021*/http://members.boardhost.com/Vette_Man/

Chevettes And Their Drivers
Darryl Lowes was the founder of the The Chevette Forum. His page was another wealth of information and includes a still excellent automatic to manual transmission swap guide. As of this writing, the site still exists. It was included here as an archive and because some websites (like facebook) don’t play nice linking to tripod.com hosted sites anymore. https://members.tripod.com/darryl_lowes/
