PRESIDENT’S CORNER
BY HAROLD BRUNSKI
Hello PCC Members-
First off all I would like to welcome Ron & Bobbie Pavek back to the club. They were members in
the past and recently decided to come back.
At the end of May we had our first club event since the start of COVID-19 and it was a big hit. Mo & Marker Wise led
approximately 30 cars on a scenic drive through Trabuco Canyon that took about an hour. We ended the drive at Panera
Bread in Tustin where we enjoyed breakfast and catching up with each other.
As I mentioned during our June Zoom meeting I am looking for volunteers to coordinate more drives like the one that Mo
& Marker put together. Events like this will allow us to visit with each other while following the guidelines that are in
place.
On June 4th a small group of us headed up to Big Bear for the weekend. We had a caravan of five cars on Thursday
morning and two other cars met us up there. The restaurants were open so we ventured out and tried a few new places
as well as some of the familiar places. The restaurants did a good job following state/city guidelines.
As you can see from the photos below we had a great time. Dick and Barbara Block led us on a drive around the lake on
Friday and to Arrowhead on Saturday. Miniature golf and a BBQ were also part of the fun. Sheryl & I also managed to get
in our haircuts (hee hee).
The Zoom meeting was recorded and can be viewed using the link on
the PCC calendar.
The Board will review the COVID-19 situation toward the end of June
and make a decision regarding the July General Meeting. Once a
decision is made I will send out an announcement via email.
Stay safe and I hope to see everyone soon!

VICE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
BY RAY MARSHALL
Another month goes by and there is not much new. We have removed the PCC Picnic and the
trip to Del Mar from the calendar. Del Mar was cancelled because the track said it probably will
not be open.
We did have some people go up to Big Bear for a few days. Hopefully we will get an article about that. Report was that
the city was reopening. About 10 people showed up and one night they actually got to have dinner together in a
restaurant at one big table.
Last check still had the racing at Laguna Seca still happening on June 12th. The Corvette Fest in Huntington Beach on
July 19th is still on. This event is held in the beach parking lot. These beach gatherings bring in a lot of cars and people.
Bob Savanich is the man for info on this event. I am sure he will keep us posted on what is going on.
We had some folks check in and report the Cars and Coffee at the Outlet Mall in San Clemente is back in operation.
Keeping cars at a social distance has caused the event to take up all the upstairs and downstairs areas.
Racing events at Buttonwillow and Auto Club Speedway in July and August are still expected to happen.
The Huntington Beach Concours is scheduled for September 12 &13.
FYI, when I looked yesterday, Fuddrucker’s on El Toro Road is now permanently closed.
The Cambria outing is on for October 1-4.

PCC RACERS EDGE
BY BOB ROSE
Unless things change for the worse, one of the best social distancing sports known to man is back
in full swing. The tracks are open without spectators but you can still bring your favorite co-pilot
and have a great, safe time. Our drivers meetings will be outside and social distancing guidelines
will be observed at registration etc., but then you are distanced by definition in your car.
For our PCC Racing Team we now have a schedule for the rest of the year. Remember, you don't
have to be a pro to try a turn on the track with your Corvette. There are groups for every skill level including beginner.
However, Speedventures is not offering up instructors yet so if you want a ride-along instructor, you will need to count on
me or one of our other experienced racers to help you out. I was tested negative a few days ago for whatever that's
worth. You can also come out and hang out and just watch or ride along, it's a blast.
OK so here it is (as of today)
June 12-14: Laguna Seca. Yes it's a long way and it's an expensive entry fee but if you love racing, having the
opportunity to drive this iconic track is something that should be on your bucket list. We will be racing on Friday the 12th,
going up Thursday and back Saturday.
August 16: Back to our home track AAA raceway in Fontana.
September 19: The Streets of Willow at Willow Springs. It's like a giant autocross. So much fun.
September 26 & 27: Sonoma Raceway. This is a yearly junket for me. It's the weekend before Cambria and I usually
make my way down the coast after racing and wineries. Always looking for company. We are racing both days and both
days are Wilwood days too.
October 3-4. There is racing at AAA but most everyone is in Cambria that weekend.
October 18. Buttonwillow Raceway. A Wilwood day.
October 31. Halloween racing at The Streets of Willow.
November 8 at AAA.
November 21-22 our annual junket to Chuckwalla for fun racing on one of the nicest tracks in region, the final Wilwood
event and trophy presentation, drinking and lies around the fire pits at the cabins, and a generally great time.
Details and signups for all of these events are available at Speed Ventures. There are these and others up on our
calendar too but their web site is the best place to verify the event is still on.
Catch me if you can......

FIRST PCC C8 DELIVERY (SCISSORS PLEASE)
BY KEN JAMES
Hi Everyone! Are you still waiting for your C8 Corvette? Well, build one yourself.
P a g e | 8 Corvette Waves June 2020
ENGINEERING THE C8 CORVETTE'S LT2 V-8
The following article has been submitted to Corvette Waves by Don Wilder with the permission of Hagerty Media.
Don Sherman 17 September 2019
BY DON WILDER
Given the C8 Corvette’s role as the pride of GM, this sports car is both a revolution in American
architecture and exterior design and a prime opportunity for engine lab gurus to shine. Squeezing
495 horsepower from 6.2 liters—that’s 1.3 hp per cubic inch—without benefit of overhead
camshafts, multi-valve combustion chambers, or boosting is a worthy accomplishment. Here’s
how the clever GM engineers did it.
They began by keeping the best parts of the small-block V-8 Chevy
launched for the 1955 model year: A 4.4-inch spacing between cylinder
bores and one block-mounted camshaft activating a mere 16 valves
serving eight cylinders. They also retained key refinements developed
over six decades that improved this engine’s ease of making horsepower
for the least weight, space, and cost: aluminum block and head
construction; a deep-skirt cylinder block with cross-bolted main bearings
and cast-iron bore liners; state-of-the-art electronic controls to meter the
fuel and cleanse the exhaust; free-flowing cylinder heads with direct
injection developed for the 2014 C7 Corvette’s LT1 engine; and squirters
aiming a jet of oil at the underside of each piston to lower their operating
temperatures.
The LT2’s centerpiece is a new cylinder block designed around a dry-sump
lubrication system that’s now standard Corvette equipment. There are three
fundamental reasons why a performance engine’s lubricant should not be
stored in its basement. First, relocating the oil supply allows mounting of the
engine significantly lower in the car, thereby dropping the overall center-of-
gravity height in the interests of supreme cornering. The second motivation is
that crankshafts have a bad habit of stirring oil into unpalatable whipped
cream. This consumes power that might otherwise be used for acceleration
and top speed and it greatly diminishes the oil’s ability to cool and lubricate
critical moving parts. The third reason for dry sump is that this is the easiest
means of assuring there’s never any lapse in oil pressure when the car tops
one g cornering, braking, or flying over the Nürburgring Nordschliefe’s Sprunghugel (hill jump). Using an engine dyno
attached to a tilt stand, LT2 engineers made sure there is no oil pressure interruption up to 1.2 gs in every direction.
P a g e | 9 Corvette Waves June 2020
The most interesting feature in the new LT2 block is a sealed valley (the chamber between the cylinder banks) to stop oil
draining down from the heads and hydraulic lifters from entering the crankcase (where the whipped cream factory used
to thrive). According to Chief Engineer Jordan Lee, this is an unprecedented innovation. A scavenge pump driven by the
camshaft sucks oil from the valley and dispatches it to a remote reservoir. The block’s flanks are liberally ribbed to
increase stiffness. They’re also equipped with new pads for mounting the engine to the Corvette’s chassis and spots to
attach the eight ignition coils out of sight below the exhaust headers.
The second-most-interesting LT2 detail is a 7.5-quart molded-plastic oil reservoir bolted directly to a flat surface located
at the left-front corner of the engine. This light tank serves several purposes. Oil scavenged from the valley and the
shallow cast aluminum pan covering the bottom of the engine drops through a maze that separates liquid from vapor.
After settling a few moments in the tank, vapor bubbles disappear, leaving only liquid oil. Vent lines attached to the top
of the reservoir route the vapor to the LT2’s valve covers where it’s drawn into the intake plenum by engine vacuum. An
exit passage at the bottom of the reservoir feeds the crankshaft-driven variable output oil pressure pump with no need
for external lines that add weight and inhibit flow. A pipe extending to the right side of the engine bay provides a means
of adding oil and checking the fluid level.
The new dry sump has proven so reliable in severe testing that engineers felt justified reducing the lubricant supply by
1.7 quarts—from the LT1’s 9.7 quarts to the LT2’s 7.5 quarts—which saves 3.7 pounds of weight and a few bucks at
every oil change. Testing revealed that up to three quarts of oil could be stuck in various parts of the LT1 engine during
extreme conditions as compared to less than one quart in the LT2 V-8.
P a g e | 10 Corvette Waves June 2020
Oil draining from cam and crankshaft bearings settles into a two-compartment bottom cover (pan) which is scavenged by
a pair of crank-driven pumps. A molded plastic scraper peels lubricant clinging to the crank’s balance weights. A coolant-
to-lubricant heat exchanger, with 28-percent greater cooling capacity than offered in the LT1, in combination with an oil
filter mounting boss, is bolted to the LT2’s oil pan.
The forged steel crankshaft with an extended snout to drive three of the oil pumps is made from an S38 alloy with higher
strength properties. Dampers at both ends quell vibrations caused when the LT2 runs on only four cylinders to reduce
both noise and fuel consumption.
Great volumetric efficiency strides have been achieved with new intake and exhaust systems. Since the driver no longer
looks over the engine to see the road ahead, the intake system is some three inches taller than before. This facilitates
8.3-inch-long intake runners fed by a large plenum chamber with the 87mm throttle body (carried over from LT1) located
at the rear. Since the intake manifold is made of black molded plastic to minimize weight and noise radiation, appearance
is not one of its strong points. To hide that flaw, GM designers tooled up a decorative cover—also molded plastic—with
surface features resembling the Corvette’s rear body details. We predict the aftermarket will have a field day offering
alternatives.
Engineering and design collaboration focused on the exhaust system and
valve covers was more fruitful. To provide a clear view of the stunning
Edge Red Metallic valve covers, the ignition coils were tucked out of sight.
The headers are a classic four round tube into a single collector design
which flows upward on its way to the catalytic converters and mufflers.
To make the most of this new found volumetric efficiency, LT2 chief
engineer Jordan Lee investigated more aggressive cam profiles. The end
result is an increase from 13.5 to 14 mm of exhaust valve lift (matching
the LT1’s intake valve lift), and 18-degrees greater exhaust valve open
duration. Intake valve lift was left alone while intake duration was upped
by four degrees. The result is a slight loss of power and torque through the midrange (2800–4500 rpm) with significantly
more power and torque beyond 5000 rpm. The torque peak is thereby shifted to 5150 rpm with 465 or 470 lb-ft available
P a g e | 11 Corvette Waves June 2020
depending on whether the performance exhaust system is in place. Power jumps to 490 or 495 horses at 6450 rpm, a
30–35 horsepower gain over the potent LT1. Fuel delivery is interrupted at 6600 rpm.
GM’s Tonawanda, New York, engine plant builds the new LT2. This factory, built in 1938, was updated years ago to
employ numerically controlled machining centers instead of fixed tools strung adjacent to transfer lines. During World War
II, Tonawanda won five Army-Navy E (for excellence) awards building over 60,000 Pratt & Whitney radial engines to
power bombers, fighters, and cargo planes. The plan is for this plant to produce 2200 small-block V-8s per day, including
170 per day for the Corvette.
LT2’s real claim to fame is that it makes nearly 500 horsepower—enough to power your average $200,000 supercar—at
low cost. This is why Chevy is able and willing to offer the new mid-engine Corvette at a $59,995 starting price. So the
next time your bar bro disparages pushrods as yestertech, remind him that there’s no other car in the world capable of
crowding 200 mph and scooting to 60 in less than three seconds for such a pittance.

POWER HOUR LOOP
BY MO & MARKER WISE
Saturday, May 30, 2020
(Twilight Zone music playing in the background) You are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight
and sound, but of mind. 32 Corvettes driving three abreast down El Toro Road towards Cooks Corner. You have just
entered, The Corvette Zone!
It was a quiet Saturday with the usual morning clouds dotting the sky. 30 cars had registered for the Power Hour event
which was just a short loop from Fuddruckers in Lake Forest to Panera at The Marketplace in Tustin via Santiago Canyon
Road. A few others (invited by PCC members) joined in to make the final total 32 cars.
Most people did get out of their cars, wearing masks or at least keeping a safe distance away. It was really hard to not
hug your friends or shake their hands. Everyone mentioned how happy they were to be outside and to have an event in
which to participate. There were a lot of smiles and really clean cars!
We were really a sight rolling down El Toro. Due to the timing of the lights, we had some separation of groups, but we
were pretty much all together after a few lights. The roar of the engines and exhausts were stopping people walking on
the sidewalks. They watched and waved and took photos. Santiago Canyon Road was a nice cruise. The usual amount
of bicyclists shared the road with us, but everyone was courteous.
Two lanes turn left onto Jamboree Rd, and at the time we were in the intersection, we could see a police car on the other
side waiting to turn onto Santiago Canyon Rd. But there was no sliding the corners or racing down Jamboree Road, so
no one had to make a donation to the County court.
Most of us were lucky to find front row parking once we reached our Panera destination. Many stayed to enjoy breakfast
or a cup of coffee and catch up with friends.
All of us may have differing views on this pandemic and our new normal, but I know we can all agree that we all miss
each other and getting together.
P a g e | 13 Corvette Waves June 2020
We would like to thank everyone that was able to come out and make this a really fun morning! Special thanks to Bob &
Sandy Savanich for the tips in organizing our first event.

No POWER, No HOUR & No LOOP
BY DAVE McCUE
Many of you may have heard about my wife’s Yellow C6 getting stuck in the Fuddruckers parking
lot. We planned to attend the Moe Wise event, Power Hour Loop on Saturday May 30th. That
morning started out great, I hadn’t forgotten my Nikon Camera, or it’s memory card and the
battery was fully charged.
We planned for Gina to drive and I could photograph our Vettes in caravan. Arriving at Fudd’s, I was slow and careful
parking. I had been lectured, that at times, that my parking did not meet expectations, so I was in reverse backing up
and the engine sputtered. I shifted into neutral to try and get the engine going, but no use it was stuttering backing up,
in neutral. The rear wheels hit the curb softly, the engine died and would not start. Most everything else worked lights,
door locks etc.
I found Mo and told her my problem, and took a flood
of pictures of the group before they took off about
8:20. Back in the car, Gina had called AAA. The Vette
was towed to my mechanic, Saddleback Auto in Mission
Viejo. We knew the battery was weak and hoped it was
just a battery. The battery was bad and a new one was
installed, our mechanic looked it over and it wouldn’t
start. He advised me that only a dealer would have the
right test equipment. Oh no, that’s not what we wanted
to hear. We worried that it would be a computer. Ten
years ago one of the computers was replaced and cost
$1,900. What would it cost now?
Gina suggested calling John Iest. If anyone could help on electrical problems on a Vette, it would be John. He had
everything, heavy thick manuals, jack, wheel stands, gauges, tools and a pair of blue overalls, see pictures. He spent over
an hour on the Vette and got it started by bypassing the computer, but yet again it only worked in reverse gear. John
checked it over carefully with his instruments and everything looked good except the computer. This was bad news, we
feared maybe a $3,000 to $4,000 repair bill. Thank you John for taking time away from your business to help.
P a g e | 18 Corvette Waves June 2020
Simpson Chevrolet was the closest dealer. I called Don Wilder who has worked with Simpson as our sponsor. He
suggested I call the service manager, Roger Abbot. Met with Roger and he gave me a ten percent discount and free
diagnostics. AAA delivered Gina’s Vette to Simpson on 6/2/20. It didn’t take them long to determine the problem was the
automatic transmission cable but they could not find one. It was a rare cable. Turns out the first C6, 2005, Gina’s year,
had a four speed autotrans, no paddle shift. C6 from 2006 up to 2013 are six speed with paddle shift and used a different
cable.
I worked with Kyrel Brown, Service Consultant at Simpson (see
picture). The service department started searching and GM had it
on back order only. Kyrel said that they will advise delivery only
after the order was place. Days passed and week a passed. We
thought about EBay or Craig’s List, but Simpson couldn’t warrant
parts from those sources.
On Friday the 10th, Kyrel called and said they found one and did I
want it for next day shipping. I knew the dealer would be
expensive, Cable $132, labor $867 and shipping $92. It was
almost a relief because we were afraid of paying much more. We
picked up the Vette on Tuesday the 16th. Our experience with
Simpson was very good. Kyrel kept us up to date and actually
returned my phone calls. Both Kyrel and the Service Manager Roger
Abbot were very professional. If I needed service from a dealer, I
would not hesitate using Simpson again.

SOUTH OC CARS AND COFFEE
BY BOB SAVANICH
South OC Cars and Coffee (IT’S ALIVE!)
Saturday May 30th the Outlets of San Clemente authorized Simon to start up South OC Cars and
Coffee after months of dormancy. The Outlets were closed as well. Opening day it is estimated 3000
cars showed up for the event. There were some restrictions on coming and going using only the
Northern most entry for ingress and egress. That of course slowed things down a bit. Around 50+ PCC members
avoided the crowded Outlets by going on Mo and Marker Wise’s fun cruise.
Sandy and I wanted to check out the Outlets last weekend, June 6th. Guess what? It rained so we took the sedan and
parked in the underground structure per Simon’s instructions. You may not believe this, but an estimated 1000 cars
showed up in the RAIN! Sandy and I had breakfast at Ruby’s and walked around with an umbrella. Five (5) C-8 Vettes
were there. Connell’s Chevrolet was showing them to the masses. There were a ton of Vettes, Exotics, hot rods of all
kinds, Porsches, Ferrari’s, Lambos, everything all getting very wet.
There were no restrictions on ingress and egress this time so things went well. Except for the jerks who don’t obey rules
of etiquette like not arriving or leaving the event quietly, wearing a mask (mandatory). Thousands of people enjoying
their passion can be ruined by a few.
We were amazed at the pent up demand for car buffs to get in their rides and go SOMEWHERE, ANYWHERE!
The Enderle Mission Dollar Breakfast Cruise also opened their usual first and last Sunday of the month at the Enderle
Shopping Center. The first Sunday drew 230 cars which is almost twice as many as usually show. Parking limits them a
bit. I missed the last two Enderle's but Sandy and I go there once every two or three months. It’s an early rise but
breakfast there is very good. It runs from 7:00-11:00 AM. It is an actual car show with awards and everything. No you
don’t have to show your car, they just have a few guys look over the cars that are there and award a couple of cool
trophy's for the heck of it. Bring a little cash with you too. There is a “CASH” raffle and it pays out in, drum roll please,
CASH! Sandy and I have been extraordinarily lucky winning every time we play. I’ve met some cool Corvette guys from
another Corvette Club, Corvettes of So Cal. Several of our members show up regularly. Al Krauza, Drew Conner, Chris
Knox, Ellis Delameter, and occasionally others.
So to our PCC family, if you have a cool show, an interesting or favorite drive you like, let Ray Marshall know and he’ll
help you organize a “run” for the club.
Until then, save the wave.

Cypher Scientific, the first corporate sponsor of Pacific Coast Corvettes, has been reporting that MedWand, a device we have been working on for almost three years, has been released to manufacturing. MedWand is a disruptive medical device that enables a doctor to examine you remotely, regardless of where you are, or where the doctor may be. It finally puts “medicine” into telemedicine. You can see it in action at www.medwand.com. MedWand is now in pre-FDA submission testing and we expect final approval by June. Watch for MedWand to make an immediate impact in home healthcare, telemedicine, and remote access to quality healthcare.
Along with MedWand’s release, Cypher Scientific is now a partner in Amoled Technical Services. We have begun producing replacement screens for after-market repair of the iPhone X in our factory in Korea and have launched sales worldwide. Check it out at www.amoledscreens.com. Another factory, located in Southeast Asia for the production of replacement screens for the Samsung OLED phones like the 8, 8+, 9 and 9+ is in planning for later this summer.
We also are proud to continue to be involved as part of the Corvette community through our sponsorship of Bob Rose’s Z06 in the Wilwood Corvette Challenge series again for the 2020 season and are looking forward to expanding that sponsorship into the 2020 SCCA Solo and Pro-Solo Autocross series as well. We are also interested in helping support a multi-car Pacific Coast Corvettes Racing Team in 2020.
Cypher Scientific’s mechanical and electrical engineering teams can bring your imagined products to life. Medical, home, automotive, robotic, industrial: What can we build for you
