1975 Corvette Parts
The 1975 Corvette experienced significant transformations at the onset of the new model year – one of them being the use of lead fuel. Due to environmental contamination associated with its use, it was determined that the automotive industry would start phasing it out.Since the 1920s, the lead additives in fuel allowed engine designers to produce more powerful, higher compression engines. But it also produced a dangerous amount of neurotoxin through exhaust emissions, resulting in many cases of lead poisoning.
In addition, the lead component was destructive to catalytic converters, which were to become a federally mandated requirement to aid in the control of dangerous exhaust emissions. As you can see, the 1975 Corvette was the beginning of a new era.
