50 Years of the Chevrolet Corvette

1995

Once again, the 1995 Corvette only saw minor changes mechanically and cosmetically. The LT1 Engine saw some improvements, including tweaked connecting rods for better strength and weight uniformity, a quieter engine fan, and the fuel injection system could take alcohol blend fuels. Also, the updated fuel injectors helped reduce fuel drippage when the car was not in use. Another revision was the six-speed manual transmission now worked with the high-detent operation, and heavy-duty ZR-1 brakes became standard. As for the exterior, the 1995 Corvette had redesigned fenders. It is the easiest way to identify the new model. 1995 marked the last year of the ZR-1, which ended early in the production cycle. We should note the Opti-Spark Ignition System has trouble with this C4.
