I have a 2.5" Corsa cat back on a otherwise stock 1996 GTS and am thinking of adding headers to the cylinder head upgrade. Been convinced that JM Stage III heads with stock manifolds isn't really an optimal strategy. I'm sure the same could be said for not adding hi flow cats, 3" exhaust, a...
A while back I bought a set of Jeff Morys GENII OEM Stage III cylinder heads for my 1996 GTS from Steve Viperair. They were used but refurbished by Jeff to be 'like new," which in fact they look to be. Believing in the Reagan doctrine, "trust by verify," I took them to a local shop (where they...
I'm determined to understand the value of the ACR oil filter adapter in comparison to the stock adapter and need a GENII non-ACR / normal oil filter adapter to test. If you upgraded to the ACR adapter and wouldn't mind parting with your old adapter for a reasonable cost, please let me know...
**Potential** GENI/II OEM "like" Radiator Replacement Option
After noticing a slight leak in my 15 year old original radiator, I pulled it and brought it down to Albert at Indianapolis Radiator Works. He expressed some concern about the repairability and while a re-core is always an option...
Thanks Jon for not only acquiring a set of difficult to find 17" tires for my GTS, but honoring last year's price and throwing in a small part I've been looking for months for. I really appreciate it! :2tu:

1996 GTS - Clutch engages very low sometimes after the car sits for a while. Stays that way for 5 or so shifts then returns to normal. Pumping the clutch doesn't seem to help, instead actual engagements are required for it to return to normal. Daily use maintains normalcy for the most part...
Pinion bearing toasted - Anyone have an extra Limited Slip tag?
During a repair, the limited slip tag cracked. 10 degree temps probably contributed. Anyway, not a part numbered item so am looking for someone that might have a extra that they are willing to sell me.
As to why the diff was...

While cleaning the car the other day, I noticed that on the top of the passenger stanchion was cracked on the forward / window side. Hasn't fallen off but has flexed to the point that the structure is gone and the gloss coating seems to be all that is holding it on.

A while back there was a vibrant discussion on whether using anti-seize on sparkplug threads was a good thing or not and if so what the new torque setting should be. I just came across this table clarifies the required torque adjustment. Much greater decrease than I suspected. Bottom line, if...
I changed to Dex-Cool within months of purchasing my new Viper because (in order):
I wanted the water pump to last longer.
I wanted to take advantage of the lastest in coolant technology, including better thermal transfer.
I hate changing coolant (almost as much as ATF changes) and wanted to...
Purchased a "new" 180 thermostat off EBAY while back and more recently a new from Dodge 195 degree. Building my spare parts inventory. Anyway, noticed a completely different design between the Dodge and EBAY and was wondering if anyone had a officially purchased a 180 that could either post an...

Looking for options on extending my Viper's extended warranty. Am original owner, bought the original Dodge extension when I purchased car and it is expiring mid November. 16,000 miles on car.
Not sure if I can get another Dodge extension, but curious as to other's experience. Please feel...
I personally prefer paper filters versus cotton (K&N Style) for daily use. I use my K&N's for track and dyno use only. Supporting that strategy, I've noticed lower silicon readings in my oil analysis when I run paper. (silicon = dirt). No doubt K&N adds power, just not enough for...
For those new to Viper hibernation:

As winter approaches, proper storage practices will insure that your Viper will be the same car you remembered it to be when you last drove it.
Engine and such…
If you’re due for an oil change, now is the...
Does anyone have the dyno proven RWHP/TQ gain with just an OEM CAT removal? Would like to see the theoretical maximum gain available with really free flowing cats.
Would also like to see the A/F ratios if your dyno operator provides.
Thanks much
Adopt a \"Cat\" Program (Wanted)
Does anyone have a lonely boring old low flow, hot running, Viper OEM cat lying about and looking for a good home? Perhaps one that you cut off when you upgraded to a pair of nice new High Flows?
I'm in need of a pair Viper catalytic converters for a project...
Did a search on "door alignment" and while many have attempted and some were even successful, no one has really shared all the tips and tricks involved. Rather than learning by my mistakes, can anyone provide ideas on the proper way to lift the rear end of the door? Mine is rubbing low on the...

Does anyone know if the PCM can control each bank (right and left) of fuel injectors independently based on right and left O2 sensor voltages or do the right and left sensors just act as verification of each other and the PCM reacts to the average of both?
Thanks
Noticed a bit of interference between the inside of the passenger headlight (near high beam) and the very inside tip of the hood. Since the drivers side has a proper gap, solution seems to be moving the passenger headlight slightly outboard.
How is this best accomplished? Fascia removal? If...
ATF+4 suitable for \'92 - \'02 Viper Power Steering?
1. Was told by a Viper tech that all year Vipers can use ATF+4 in place of traditional Mopar Power Steering fluid.
2. ATF+4 bottle states that it can be used only on "post 1998" Chrysler power steering systems.
3. Mopar All Climate P/S...
Acquired a set of OEM shorty headers and was wondering why both sides had dents (clearance?) on the front two cylinders.
Sure they're normal as both right and left side had identical impressions, but since the cast manifolds don't have them was wondering what the purpose was on the...
