    SPEC 3+ slipping

    Well…it didn't last as long as I had hoped…maybe 15K miles. After doing some exhaust work over the weekend, I was checking out the new mufflers and I guess I was hammering it pretty good through a few 1/4 mile runs and 3rd/4th gear pulls. Started to smell the infamous clutch smell. So once I...

    No Parts without providing a VIN

    SO I have a T56 pulled from a 2004 RAM SRT-10 that I need a tailshaft seal and the driveshaft yoke so I can install this trans in my Viper. The local Dodge dealer (Brandon Dodge in Florida) refuses to order parts for me without a VIN. They stated that since it is a RAM SRT-10, they have to...

    http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-general/2733717-we-turn-your-t56-into-a-tr6060-the-ultimate-transmisson.html Anyone done this specifically on a GEN-II yet? I've seen the threads with the physical swapping of the TR6060 in place of the T56, but this appears to be more along the lines of...

    VEC-II Abnomalies

    Anyone experience their VEC acting up when it gets hot (the VEC that is)? I seem to be having a situation where my VEC craps-out once it gets hot under the hood Seems to be OK when cold). Possibly from getting wet a few times. I cleaned the circuit board a few times (corrosion on the aux box)...

    Spark Plug Experiment

    We all know that for boosted GEN II cars, the best plug is the RC10ECC which is no longer in production by Champion (at over $10.00 each). There are others that many have used over the years from about every manufacturer out there...but none are the true .290 projected nose plug the the Viper...

    Flashing CEL

    I was doing some long 4th/5th gear WOT pulls on my new 2.8H ROE setup and had something that has never happend before pop up. When I was really into the boost/RPM/MPH, the Check Engine Light (CEL) started flashing. When I let off and got back to normal speeds, it went away. Get into boost and...

    Its Alive

    Hopefully the video will improve. Still, at least its running. Amazing what functioning injectors will do. Put the hood back on and ran around the neighborhood. Feels great to be back on the road. Can't go for a drive today for a shakedown cruise, but soon.

    Stump the Chump

    I like to think at this point in ownership/wrench turning over my lifetime that I have this car all figured out. But alas I'm stumped. Upon reinstalling my fresh engine, I can't get it to fire. No CELs indicating bad crank or cam position sensor even though I replaced the cam position sensor...

    Bleed Down to Solid Roller

    Greg Good has a handy-dandy little conversion he does to convert the OEM hydraulic lifters into solid roller. When I inquired, he basically indicated for me to make a solid tool steel plug where the spring/check valve is located. Just finished up all twenty this AM and thought I'd share on this...

    Eagle Rods

    Well, Had the issue with bending a stock rod on my "R&D" 2.8 Kenne Bell set-up and after having all the rods checked, my suspicions were verified that I had three additional rods that were bent. I guess I'm running right at the limits of the stock rods with the 2.8 upgrade. Heads-up if you are...

    I'm a bundle of sweat right now. Just installed the Walbro into the fuel pump basket and reinstalling the assembly in the tank. Service manual indicates this should be real easy...but I can't get the assembly to seat fully in the thick rubber gasket that goes in the neck of the tank before I...

    Kenne Bell 2.8H Upgrade

    OK..picture limited on this forum...5 max. Basically no huge issues with this project. Here is what I have learned: 1. Sell your used 2.4. I got $1000.00 for mine on EBAY. Mustang guys are always looking for the 2.4 since they are an upgrade to their smaller blowers...hard to get I guess. 2...

    Using WB as Narrow Band Sensor

    Anyone ever use their Wide Band Sensor (Innovate LC-1 in my case) narrow band analog output and eliminate the factory narrow band 02 sensor? I might try to do this and get the best of both worlds. My LC1 analog output #1 can be configured as a narrow band signal and used right into the PCM in...

    ROE #10 Timing
