    Grundy Insurance - Want a Good Laugh?

    Okay, so I've been hearing about how good Grundy is on the VCA and how reasonable their prices are. Since my car insurance company keeps bumping up the rates on my Viper every year I decided to check them out. I received their application via email last week. One of the provisions is that the...

    National Drive Your Viper to Work Day?

    Apparently next Friday, June 26, is the 9th annual National Drive Your Corvette to Work Day. I never heard of it until I ran across it in the paper today. I searched but I could not find a similar event for the Viper. Did anyone ever attempt to get something like this started and it just...

    Header Install Labor Prices

    How hard is it to install Bellanger headers? I've been quoted $2k just to install them (this does not include the parts cost) and for that much I'd be willing to DIY, even if it took me several weeks in my spare time. Does the engine have to be pulled or something? I just do not see why it would...

    Forum Not in List

    So, why does the Politics 101 forum not show up on the forum list? I had to find it through a secret back door just now. It is supposed to be in the General Non-Viper Discussion group, according to the link when I eventually arrived via the secret back door.

    Personalized Viper Checks

    If you want to really personalize your checks with a photo of your Viper I found a great place that will transform any photo you upload to them onto your checks.

    Low Profile and Being Seen

    There are rare occasions when I park the Viper in a parking lot and go into a store for a few minutes. Of course, I always park FAR away from any other vehicle and away from high traffic areas. It still makes my heart skip a beat or two when I walk out and I don't see my car right away where I...

    DOT Tire Code

    I was browsing the Tire Rack website and saw that you can determine when your tires were manufactired by the DOT code on the side. I'm not sure if the pic below is the right code or not. If it is then the tire was made on the 27th week of 1999, which would have been in July. Since mine is a...

    My Hoodpad Project

    I've been working on my hoodpad off and on for about a week. I finally finished it last night. Of the 25 or so things I had on my "what to do to the Viper list" this was probably the most time-consuming, even more involved than replacing the thermostat and plug wires combined. I must have...

    Intake Manifold Bolts

    Okay, my Roe Racing red silicone heater hose kit is sitting on my breakfast room table, along with a new thermostat. I figured it would be a fun(?) project to work on tonight to wind down from the weekend. I ran into a snag that I guess I'll have to wait until Monday to fix. No, it's not...

    Aftermarket Intake Questions

    I recently bought my first Viper - a '99 RT/10. Every Viper enthusiast who has peered under the hood has made the same comment about upgrading to smooth intake tubes and K&N filters. I've searched some of the popular aftermarket sites and found a few. They vary greatly in price and don't...

    Naming Your Viper

    Do some of you have a name for your car? I'm debating over a small list of what to name my new toy. Like my road bicycle Shirley (that's why I'm RoadiJeff) it will be a woman's name because I would never ride a guy. Right now Elvira, the mistress of the dark, is at the top of my list. She's...

    1999 RT/10 Service Manual?

    Hi guys. My new baby doesn't arrive until next weekend but I'd like to get a few things to welcome her to her new home. Does anyone have any information on where I can buy a 1999 RT/10 service manual (not the CD version)? I've searched eBay and the only one they have right now is the CD. BTW...
