    So what kind of issues can I expect after having the battery disconnected for days??

    I've got my battery disconnected on my '08 while I've got the intake manifold off getting polished. Won't have it back together for over a week. I've been noticing some threads of people having issues when reconnecting the battery after it's been off for a while. Other than reprogramming the...

    K&N 69 Series Typhoon Air Box/Filter... Any Issues?

    Looking to do something different for the air intake on my '08 SRT. I see a lot of the K&N 69 series Typhoon system (69-2527TTR) for sale out there . But I don't see a lot of reviews other than some sporadic concerns like: 1. Any concern with sealing issues with the box to hood? 2. Is there any...

    Sell RT/10 with Supercharger or Remove and Sell Separately

    So I'm selling my Roe Supercharged 1998 RT/10 (in the classifieds) but wondering if I'm better off removing the supercharger and selling it separately and put the car back to stock. I'd rather sell it as a package deal as I'm too busy nowadays to swap it back out unless I just had to. And I...

    Washer Behind the Idler Pulley??

    Hey Guys, This may be a dumb question but is there suppose to be a thick washer behind the idler pulley? I had to take the pulley off during the Roe SC install a few years ago and I didn't recall at the time ever seeing one so I put it back on without one. Never had any issues. The reason I'm...

    Lack of Viper in the News?

    Is it me or is the Viper being ignored in automobile writeups lately? MSN Auto has an article on "The Ten Hottest Tuner Cars" and mentions everything from Lingenfelter Camaros to the Roush 427R Rustangs to the Pratt and Miller Corvette C6RS to even the Heffner Ford GT. But nothing on Vipers. It...

    Engine stalls after starting when warmed up

    Not sure what the issue is but first, I've been having problems with the idle dropping to near stall, then coming back up to 550 or so, then cycling back and forth a couple of times before finally settling on normal idle when I push the clutch in and coast up to a stop. Now, when I stop and shut...

    Clutch Chatter Revisited

    OK. As indicated in my previous thread, we (wifey and I) changed out the clutch while fixing a rear oil seal leak. The old clutch was working fine but per most recommendations, we went ahead and changed it out while it was all torn apart. Got everything back together and bled the slave. Now I...

    Wife is a Viper mechanic!!

    So I finally decided to fix the nagging oil leak I've had for a few months. After replacing the oil pan, gasket, wrapping teflon tape on the oil pan bolts, and every other trick known to the viper world, it was concluded that I either had a leaky rear oil seal or the seal retainer gasket had...

    Wrong Throwout Bearing??

    I'm getting ready to slap in a new clutch when I fix my rear oil seal leak. Has anyone confirmed that the throwout bearing that comes in the LUK clutch kit #05-088 is the wrong bearing? In searching, I found some old postings where some claim that it is. I have a new LUK slave cylinder but it...

    Looking for Opinions on an F1 Racing DF Clutch Kit??

    I bought a Luk/Exedy clutch kit off of E-bay being marketed by an outfit known on Ebay as "Gripforce". They're out of California and the company name apparently is Speed Solutions International. Anyways, after paying for it, they e-mailed me to tell me Exedy left out the clutch disk in the kit...

    Do I need to Drop the Oil Pan to Remove the Rear Seal?

    Even though it doesn't mention it in the manual, do I have to drop the oil pan to remove the crank shaft rear oil seal? I know I have to drop the tranny, and remove the clutch and flywheel. I've had the oil pan off a couple of times but never paid attention to what the rear pan bolts went up in...

    Do I Need New Fasteners for Flywheel?

    Getting ready to fix a nagging oil leak I've had for some time now. Narrowed it down to the rear seal. I'll have to drop the tranny and pull the clutch and flywheel. I plan on replacing the clutch since I'll already be there with one of those Luk OEM setups off Ebay. It looks like the thing...

    I have a friend wanting me to drive their daughter in a local small town high school homecoming parade. I've done it in a C5 vette with an auto but never in the Vip. May seem like a dumb question, but are there any issues with idling for long periods like that and creeping along? Besides the...

    How do I go About Finidng the Previous Owner?

    How do I go About Finding the Previous Owner? I know its a little late now, having owned this car for a year and a half. But I've noticed on the Carfax I ran on my car that there was about a 2 1/2 year period where the car wasn't driven, or at least wasn't inspected, and I'm curious to why. I...
