    Sold my Viper...

    I saw my car for the last time yesterday. I have no doubt it's going to a good home in Arkansas. I did warn the new owner that his mechanical skills will improve, and that he will become a frequent visitor to this site. I did not have to sell, but it will now make things much easier to deal...

    Finally got a REAL detail done on my Viper

    In preparation of placing my car on the market, I had a full exterior detail with paint correction performed. Eric, the owner/detailer of TruShine out of Knoxville, did the work and also did a nice write up. He did such a great job, I've delayed placing it on the market. Can't say enough about...

    Chrome Gas Cap FS

    Message - ViperClub Classifieds Ad should be approved later today. I had mine chromed a few months back, and lost some parts while waiting to get it back. I bought this cap and cannabalized the parts I needed. Then I thought I'd try to get my money back from the cap by having it chromed...

    Any code experts on the site?

    What the heck does "High Temperature Logic" mean? I've been getting a P1738 popping up ever since having a Gen 3 tranny installed in my '97 GTS. Fluid is fine. Any idea why this keeps popping up? Thanks.

    Anybody need this busted body part before I ditch it?

    I'll be stunned if someone needs this, since there's only 2 useable pieces left. :D I'll let it go CHEAP, as in FREE!

    Anybody need a T56?

    Message - ViperClub Classifieds Came out of my '97 GTS at around 26,XXX miles. Works great, except for the 5/6 synchro. Tony has stopped taking kidneys, so I have to sell parts laying around the garage. :D Edit: Hoping to get $7,000, plus shipping. Hell, if you pay $7k, I'll throw in...

    Nitrous experts, enter.....

    I'm thinking about going the nitrous route to get my power fix. The last time I used nitrous was several years ago on a '02 Z06. I used a dry kit that was hard to tune. I never had any major issues, other than having to run pig rich on the street. This time around, I'm going to go with a wet...

    3.55s??

    I did a search and didn't have time to filter through the hundreds of "gears" threads, since "3.55" was too short to produce results. I'm thinking of doing what a lot of you have done and upgrade from the stock gear set to 3.55s. I'll be ordering rather soon. From what I've read, I see that...

    Removing bolts on valve covers??

    I did a search, and nada. It's too damn hot for me to pull a valve cover to look, so I'm going to ask: Do you have to remove the valve covers in order to remove the bolts that are on the sides? The bolts I'm referring to are the ones that the sparkplug wire holders mount to. I can remove 1...

    Anyone know the dimensions to.....

    the small torsion spring located around the hinge pin of the GTS gas door assembly? :D I've located a spring manufacturer who can make some replicas of the spring I lost, but they need to know the dimensions since I have no sample to send them. I'll cost me $11 each for a minimum of 10, but...

    Anyone have a busted gas cap assembly?

    I thought I lost the pins holding my gas cap assembly together. Well, I found them and now all I'm missing is the small spring that goes over one of the pins. I'm sure I can call the usual sources, but I'm also sure they'd like to sell the whole assembly, not just one small part. I was...

    Help needed in gas cap disassembly

    I've got the whole damn thing taken apart except for the pin on the base. It's the piece with the metal spring. It looks like I have to pop the end of the spring out that is in the pin. Any idea? Here's a pic of what I'm referring to:

    Gas Cap Reassembly

    Anyone ever reassembled their gas cap? I removed mine to get it painted white. The guys at the shop laughed, so I told them I was joking and to just chrome the SOB. :D I get a call from them and they are going to take the assembly apart to polish & chrome every individual part, but they...

    Another reason not to call JonB on a Monday

    While on vacation 2 months ago I was at the local WalMart on a Monday. I was in the automotive section and remembered I needed a valve stem cap. I couldn't remember which color to get, so I called JonB at around 12:30pm(10:30am his time). I told him I was at WalMart looking at valve stem caps...

    Is this bad?

    No, I'm not talking about the dirty components. :D 3 out of the 4 links were bad, so I changed them all out. Some shots of the rear: I have several more pics showing how easy it is to do(once I was told what to do), if anyone is interested in a "how to". Big thanks to...

    Anyone drive a '96 B/W thru TRF today?

    I'm up in northern MN visiting the inlaws with my wife and son. We're eating at Taco Johns, and my 2 year old son goes, "Daddy's car!" :rolaugh: I look out just in time to see a '96 B/W drive by. I have to teach him the difference between the '97 and '97 GTS. This is a SMALL town, so I was...

    Fixed passenger side window, now driver's side door will not work??

    While fixing my passenger side window, I had left the battery dc'd so it wouldn't drain down. I connected the battery and now both the outside popper and inside latch do not work. There is no light on the driver's side door when I hit the unlock button on the FOB. The passenger side door is...

    Window regulator problem or ????

    Passenger side window has been acting up. It's almost as if something is blocking the window from going down. It will go down about 2 inches or so, then stop. I can still hear the motor going. Took the door panel trim off and found this: Does this look normal? If not, any other...

    PSA: Check behind your tires before backing up!

    Left the garage door open after returning home earlier. Came back out a short while later and found this: :crazy2: Lucky for the little guy I saw him. :D I could've sworn I heard him ask me for the keys. :lmao:

    Anything worth doing in Orlando, besides the usual?

    I'll be leaving Nashville this Wednesday for Orlando for a business Conference at the Coronado Resort. Will probably be there until Sunday or Monday. Besides Disney, Universal, I-Drive, and the other usual tourist traps, anything worth checking out while I'm down there? Any good night life? :D

    Finally made some passes down the 1/4

    First trip to the dragstrip in the Viper. Made 7 passes. 1997 GTS with exhaust, S&B filters, smooth tubes, PS3 tires, and side sill cooling mod. The pcm has apparently been programmed by the previous owner. I installed the ROE SCT 93 tune after the 4th pass and ran over one tenth and 3mph...

    Another dead battery, or ????

    Possibly going on my 4th battery in 3 years. I do not drive it that often. I will usually drive the car every other weekend. So, I finally made my first 1/4mi runs in the Viper at the dragstrip in Bowling Green, KY. Had a very good time there, until I tried to leave. I turned the key and...
