    Headgasket Finally Blew....

    regarding the liners.....this is one of the reasons for the machining done by Arrow to correct my leaking head gaskets. I don't recall exactly what they do, but it seems they machined a groove or counterbore in the block in order to insert a key to keep the liners from shifting in the future...

    Headgasket Finally Blew....

    If your engine is an Arrow rebuild it should have had the machining work done... Also you can get the "failure report" from them to see what they found and did, just by calling them and asking for it.

    Headgasket Finally Blew....

    Sorry to hear about this but the news is worse than you think.... Mine went out while still under warranty. Dodge had the dealer remove my engine and sent it to Arrow Racing Engines for analysis and repair. I got a total rebuild out of it. They sent me this "failure report" as they called it...

    Please help... Gen1 or Gen2 Hood?

    that's exactly right....Rtm and SMC were the designations I forgot. They didn't have to give me anything because my car was out of warranty. The only reason they did was because they wanted to experiment with different repairs on the cracks and told me that if they couldn't repair my hood they...

    Please help... Gen1 or Gen2 Hood?

    again I'm not being clear enough.... The cracks were not only through the hood they were numerous. As in hundreds of them scattered all over. That is why they decided it was useless....more would just keep appearing as the hood got older. Fixing the ones they could see at the time was like...

    Please help... Gen1 or Gen2 Hood?

    I guess I wasn't clear enough about how the factory got around to giving me a hood. The zone rep from DC decided to use my hood to see if they could repair it. It was becoming more common for cracked hoods to be reported to the factory about that time. They sent my car to what the zone rep...

    Please help... Gen1 or Gen2 Hood?

    Back in 1999 the hood on my '94 developed cracks......the dealer replaced it even though it was out of warranty with what they said was a hood from one of the factory race cars that was replaced with something lighter. They factory authorized this because they said the GenI hood was defective...

    What oil in gen 1

    NAPA Gold.. I had a total engine rebuild under warranty by Arrow Racing Engines. Since then it consistently has from 70-80 P.S.I. oil pressure. I worried at first about exploding oil filters but it's been 4 years now and I've had no problems.

    So where are all the original people from this site?

    I've been around since December 1997....a site upgrade or something causes most to show up as 2000. I'm just across the river from you.....I've got a nice view of Louisville skyline from the Harbour's Condominiums.

    Another Celebrity Viper For Sale

    I looked at this car (if it's the one owned by Farley) as well as another one owned by Bo Jackson back in '97. I was looking for a Black car. Farley's brother was asking about $10,000 more than it was worth because of who owned it....so was Bo's representative. I ended up buying a better car...

    gen 1 head gasket problems

    It is not an issue regarding the materials that the gaskets are made of....Leaking head gaskets are only a symptom of the "REAL" problem. The REAL problem is a "design issue" of the steel sleeves in the Gen 1 aluminum block. I had an Arrow Racing Engines rebuild done under warranty and here is...

    Small crack in the paint.....

    The BAD news is "it's probably not the paint". This is exactly the way mine started....one small crack 1/4" long, then another and finally they were appearing all over the hood. This is a known issue with Gen 1 cars. I complained to my dealer, who went to bat for me with Dodge and they...

    I took first place at the Carl Casper Car Show. Pics inside.

    Saw your car there on Saturday...looking good! Bob Taylor (the shows director and the guy who painted my car) :headbang: asked me to put my car in as well....I was busy and couldn't commit to 4 days. Glad I didn't. I wouldn't have wanted to lose to you!!!!

    Who's wrecked Viper is this?

    Re: Who\'s wrecked Viper is this? That car is totaled.....From looking at it not only is almost every body part damaged but the frame is also probably bent not to mention the rear suspension. Buy it for the drive train...put it in a street rod.

    Brake pedal travel issue.....Need help

    My brake pedal travel varies. Most of the time it's fine. But on about one out three applications it travels a lot farther (twice as far, but not to the floor). I changed the master cylinder but that didn't change anything. Any ideas?

    Are Gen I parts becoming scarce??

    I believe there is a Federal law that states that manufacturers MUST support (provide replacement parts) the cars sold in America for a period of ten years after it's first sold.
