Hey all!
I just posted pictures from last weekend's AZ VCA meeting, Russo and Steele, and Barrett-Jackson auctions.
I even have a picture of Chad's new favorite car! :D

I once started a thread called "Sweet Ride Redux" or something like that... I intended to post pictures of what I was having done to my car paint/body wise. However, I never got around to it because I'm a slacker. :rolleyes:
Anyway, over the past few months, I have finally gotten everything...
Hi all:
I have a set of stock 1997 17" 5 spoke polished wheels with center caps and tires that I am looking to trade for a set of 18"/19" tires. I already have the 18"/19" wheels, so I'm only looking for tires. New or (gently) used is fine. Not too picky about manufacturer. Kumho, Michelin...
Dear fellow VCA Members, Enthusiasts, and Lurkers,
It has recently come to my attention and observation that a proponent of all things Yellow was recently seen not only getting into a RED Viper but also smiling and enjoying the ride!!!
Allow me to present evidence to you all. We now begin...
Make sure you read the whole post.... :)
All:
I called Jon up on Tuesday 10/06/09 and asked him about some exhaust flex pipes off a 98+ as I am swapping out my stock exhaust manifolds for the 98+ shorties. He basically said he had to check around to see what he could find. We agreed on a...
Hi all:
I'm changing out my exhaust manifolds to the newer style and I'm looking for a set of stock flex pipes with or without cats (preferably without) off a 98-02 Viper.
Used is ok by me.
While I'm at it, I'm also looking for the little round covers that clip into the door sill and...
Hi all:
I'm planning on heading to the Scottsdale Pavilions Car Show on Saturday August 22nd and would like to have some other Vipers show up to represent the brand.
If you're interested and would like to attend, just show up around 5:00 P.M. at the Scottsdale Pavilions (101 and Indian...
So, I went on vacation and sent my Viper in for some paint work.
They pulled the old tape stripes off and we're going with a gloss black base with red fleck in it. Not flaky like a bass boat but something subtle that you really only see in the sunlight. Painting the gas cap to match.
They...
Hi all:
I recently sent out oil samples from my engine and transmission.
The engine oil came back showing a slightly high level of lead (67 PPM). What in the Viper engine contains lead or a lead coating?
The transmission came back showing elevated levels of silicon (55 PPM). What in the...
Hi all:
I'm looking for a steering column gauge pod that holds a 2 1/16" gauge. I've seen pictures before but can't seem to find them on any websites.
Any help/quotes would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Thanks to Sean Roe for making and selling such awesome parts!!!
I recently received the Updated Fan Controller and Clutch Pedal Modification kit for my birthday.
This kit is far superior to the original due to the built in adjustability. It keeps my car running cool even in 105+ degrees. I...
Hey guys and gals:
My Paxton belt tensioner assembly took a crap today and I need one quick.
I have tried to cross reference the part number without much success. I imagine this is an off the shelf part of some kind. Anyone have any info on a possible replacement without going through...
So I decided to spend my Saturday working on the Viper (again). I actually mades some progress this week and would like to share the following:
I was standing there with the hood open mentally preparing myself for what lie ahead. I have been trying to come up with a better air intake for my...
Anyone running a Paxton and a Fluidyne or Alan's radiator in their car?
If so, were there any fitment issues or modifications other than what is covered in the "Illiustrated Upgrades" secion of the site?
Any comments would be appreciated.
Specs: Daily driver including AZ summers (110...
I purchased and installed a set of Red Quality Wires last week. I'm very impressed with the results. The wires look good and are cut to the correct lengths. They also seem more flexible than the Mopar Performance wires that were previously on the car. Install was a snap (literally). When you...
I'd like to install power mirrors on my 97. I have seen the Snake Oyl kit but I'd like to compare prices before I buy.
I have the Dodge part numbers for the mirrors and switch:
Driver's Side: 04854277AC
Passenger Side: 04854276AC
Switch: 04854270AA
The only part I can't find is the...
I installed a set of Woodhouse engine/trans mounts on my 97 GTS this weekend.
OMG these things are amazing!!! :D
After only 34,000 miles, the stock motor mounts were sagged, torn, and tweaked. The transmission mount was completely ripped in half. :crazy2: If you haven't checked your motor...
Hi all:
Here are the pictures of the Hurst 50th Anniversary Viper. The pics aren't great, but you should get the idea...
I snapped them at the Barrett-Jackson opening night gala on Monday night. The pictures have been uploaded to the gallery as well. :2tu:
There's no "chicks" in any of...
I currently have a Paxton blower that was installed by the second owner. (I am #4). While hp and torque are really the main reasons to buy a supercharger, you may want to consider the following before purchasing:
Ease of installation: The Paxton set up doesn’t seem that bad as long as you...
Hi all:
Seeing as we're getting close to the end of the year, I would like to ask/know how many miles you put on your Viper(s) this year. :dunno:
I'm at about 13K and change so far (since late Feb.) Add another 400-600 in the next few weeks.
Anyone that responds 0 should be banned from the...
Hi all:
I walked up to my car tonight and had a rather large puddle of coolant underneath. :mad: I pulled the car into my shop and looked around for about half an hour with minimal results.
I pressure tested the cooling system and the leak is coming from the driver's side on the front of...
Hi all:
I am looking to purchase brake calipers for my 97 GTS.
I found some on Ebay:
eBay Motors: 92-00 VIPER POWDERCOATED OEM brake calipers EXCHANGE (item 180207892408 end time Dec-12-08 09:52:30 PST)
Has anyone purchased from these guys before? If so, how long did it take to get...
I've had my car for 6 months now and it seems like it is not running as well as it was when I first picked it up. My first thought is to go through and check/change the spark plugs. However, I have read many things about spark plug heat ranges and tips and am not sure what plugs I should...
So I'm sitting at home Friday night (the 9th) watching a movie when I hear the dreaded "get your ass to work" ring of my phone. One of my fantastically talented drivers locked his keys in his truck and I had to go bail him out. :curse: I figure I'll take the Viper to go get him so that I can...
