Why does your 1984 Corvette has torque steer?

A 1984 Corvette doesn't typically suffer from torque steer. Torque steer is most common in front-wheel-drive (FWD) cars with powerful engines. The 1984 Corvette is a rear-wheel-drive (RWD) vehicle. Torque steer is caused by the unequal distribution of power to the front wheels during acceleration, causing the car to pull to one side. Since the Corvette's engine is in the front, but the power is sent to the rear wheels, this problem is avoided.

If a 1984 Corvette *appears* to have torque steer, there's a problem elsewhere, such as:

* Suspension issues: Worn or damaged components in the front suspension (bushings, ball joints, tie rod ends) could lead to uneven tire grip and a pulling sensation.

* Tire pressure imbalance: Unequal tire pressure can cause a similar effect.

* Alignment problems: Incorrect alignment could cause the car to pull to one side.

* Brakes: A sticking or dragging brake caliper could also create a pulling sensation.

* Drivetrain issues: While less likely, a problem in the differential or driveshaft could potentially manifest as a pulling sensation.

In short, a 1984 Corvette shouldn't experience torque steer because of its RWD configuration. Any pulling sensation indicates a mechanical problem unrelated to torque steer itself.
