The gen ones were not the poster cars in the 90s it was the gen 2 cars. Mostly the Viper GTS with stripes. Great classic cars tend to bottom out about 15 years after release. The 1996 - 2002 viper is likely the 1965-1967 vet all over.
Balanced performance? Thats the shop tat did my break in. I have a "mild" 1996 RT that Balanced and NMG (the machine shop behind them) helped m build. Where do you run your car.. Part of GA Viper Club?

You will likely hit 500 RWHP if your heads are ported by a real pro (like Greg Good, striker etc) and you are running a healthy fast acting comp cam.
Bob is right about the head gaskets.
The end result was 491 RWHP at about 5,500 rpm and 551 RWT at about 4200 rpm.
440 RWT at 2000 rpm
530 RWT at 3500 rpm
550 RWT at 4200 rpm
510 RWT at 5000 rpm
470 RWT at 5500 rpm
Car has a stock idle with a low melodic rumble and is quiet when in 5th or 6th at highway speeds. Other gear...
If original engine look and behavior is not important why not just put a blower on the engine and be done with it? Seriously if it isn't blown is ***** anyway.
Well obviously you can get more power out of the gen 2 intake but at what cost in terms of 600-1500 RPM drivability and idle quality. Your fighting an up hill battle with the long runner intake. More power would be found with a gen 3 retrofit.
Right if you are going to keep the gen 1/2 intake then the rest of the parts have got to peak in the same RPM band and focus on lifting the entire opperational RPM band which does not extend beyond about 5700 RPM or so. These intakes are good for ABOUT 550 RWT and 500 RWPH without much trouble...
Eric what is your exact formula for calculating DCR, as it may be possible that I am using a different formula.
-----------
Answer: There are many online calculators for this and they all read the same assuming you select the same atmospheric pressure. Not2fast has a good one. I am lazy and...
Dan have you found that gen 3 intake maifolds with short runners can carry higher cranking cylinder pressure than gen 1/gen 2 intakes can? I would expect a short runner intake to carry higher cranking pressure than the long runner design on the older motor. Actual cyclinder pressure is...
Right 190 is reasonable but thats not 8.8 DCR. I have no doubt that if you have a 190 CCP you are fine. I am at 189 and have no problem at all so we are in agreement.
I am assuming full timing advance with a factory 195 F thermostat and 12.8-13.0 to one air fuel. I have the aggressive alternate factory tune for the gen one that had full timing. Its very hard NA to pull much more than 1.3 Foot pounds per cubic inch without problems on older head designs I...
