    Check out this Viper!

    I dont begrudge anyone doing anything they want with their own car. But im not even going to waste the time clicking the link because, regardless of opinion, just acknowledging it gives him a paycheck. No such thing as bad publicity in the era of social media.

    New to the site

    Welcome! Without driving it much expect it to be moody when you do. Vipers do not handle boredom well and the ethanol in the gas can cause some issues once it settles out. As for the wheels, depending on your budget and how persnickety you are about perfection, JonB and Sharf would be your...

    What special Viper do i have? Strange GTS Combination

    Also, Dodge "Viper" could not be trademarked in many European markets, so its not odd for the badging to be missing or the paperwork to be off. By the Gen3 it was simply an SRT-10. But i agree with the above, none of those upgrades are OEM or even Mopar Performance. I hope the seller did not...

    Battery tender and mounting it inside engine bay

    I have a a wire mount attached to the jump point, but i HIGHLY dont recommend that. The jump point is thread sealed and has been known to snap when trying to remove - breaking it can cause huge, expensive, headaches. The other point too is that if your like me and using a Gel Battery (like...

    Napa Green Antifreeze ok? 1997 Viper…

    Its been a long time since i dealt with coolant, and im currently on the road right now so take this reply with a grain of salt... It will be okay, but you really should flush the system and switch to the Mopar Orange/Pink. The Green will attack the aluminum in the block over time. If you want...

    Anyone else have antique plates on their viper?

    Im with Rda - Hagerty was a huge joke of an insurer. Ive never seen a company whose entire catalog revolves around cars be so... well... Anti-Driving. They wanted me to put all 9 of my cars on their daily program to get a discount on the Viper (and at the time a 66 Mustang.) The end result...

    Anyone else have antique plates on their viper?

    In Delaware its a reduced Registration, one-time inspection, and lower Insurance Premiums... ... However, youre only allowed 500 miles a year, can only drive to a parade or car event, cannot have ANY non-factory modifications, and if caught violating the rule set they will remove every...

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    This is what i believe - Cheap assed Daimler wouldnt have spent a penny on development of a new Filter if it wasnt needed... especially considering they had a Filter already designed with a contracted other company (Mobil.) Also i dont believe an amateur, no matter how well intentioned, has...

    Help! Gen 1 engine coolant leak

    Looks like the thermostat housing might be leaking. Do not remove the intake to investigate until you have a better idea though, the intake gaskets are not reusable and im not 100% if they are even still available. I cant image practice shifting would have anything to do with it, however...

    92 model

    Sitting for 13 years is painful for these cars, if you intend to drive it youre going to need a full fluid flush, tires, and there are several iffy components (like head gaskets and seals) that dont take well to Boredom. 92 is also a much rarer and therefore... slightly... more difficult to find...

    Yes, i think Wix is the manufacturer mentioned above, but if you believe anything coming off that site, then i really have nothing more to say to you.

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    Thats the filtering pressure, im talking about the emergency Internal Relief Valve.. The bypass is on the top of the filter, Wix, Napa, Mobil, Fram, ect... are all 90psi which is the standard operating start up pressures of 95% of all motors made. The Viper V10s (and some say the Magnum V10s...

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    Thats such a bad idea, im really surprised its coming from you Dean. Wix and Napa filters only have a 90psi bypass for a motor with a 110psi startup. To each their own, but running unfiltered used oil through the block makes my skin crawl.

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    Ive also never had trouble finding 15w-50, even when stocks went down, so i am guessing its a regional thing. Wish it were easier to ship, i could have made a fortune in the Pinch...

    Spreadsheet of 2001 Sapphire Blue Viper VIN#s

    Jeff Gardner has already compiled all this data for the IVR, other than maybe some new mileage/location info youre about to put in alot of effort for something you could probably pay him cheap to get.

    Removing ancient Viper security system?

    I just removed a Viper Security System and unknown remote start from my Honda earlier this year. Not the same i know, but i suspect the drama will be. You need to take your time and deal with every bad/cut connection in turn - if you miss one, or fail to properly re- connect the wiring it could...

    Just bought K&N Viper (Jerry Mall?)

    I can say that ive seen that car (or one painted similarly) alot over the years, but unfortunately i dont remember any specifics. Do you know who "built" it and how, or is that what youre looking for?

    (New Here)2006 Viper - What should be my first modifications?

    Im not being mean, but i think the first thing you should do is learn how to drive it properly, then drive it a while to see what YOU feel it lacks. Putting a big blower or suspension on a car as high strung as a Viper may just make it unpalatable... or worse undrivable... to a noob...
