Seriously searching for a shark. 1978 thru 1982. Am afraid of the crossfire engine in the 81 & 82 years. Friends say it's a dog, but they don't own a Vette neither. Opinions????

I have been told by Chevy mechanics that it was a good system WHEN it was good, it was hard to get right, when it was not.
I would say stay away from the crossfire system if it is your first 'Vette, find one that was fuelie without the crossfire option.
or turn a carb'ed engine into a mechanical fuelie.

Back in my autotech days, our instructors always talked about the crossfire system and that while it was decent, it was very difficult to work on. Now it is getting harder to find seasoned mechanics willing to work on this obsolete system, and those that are willing.....just be prepared to shell out the $$$.
