I have a 96 GTS. I put a 3 core Be Cool radiator in and found a big difference. Check the temp on your upper hose, it should be hot, not just warm. Also the stock fan kick on point is like 204 low speed and around 214 for high speed. There are mods to adjust the fan kick-on point. Viper's do...
Thanks @LifeIsGood. Initials and a date. Joyce was clear :o) I'm surprised there is no record of why. Quality control? Build stage sign-off? Or did they just know each build was special and signed each car?
I have a 96 GTS and when I removed the front cowl for some work on the car, I noticed what appears to be dates & initials. Maybe the guys that built it? Anyone have similar or know about this?

My 96 Viper GTS was modified by Heffner in 2003 - added supercharger and stuff.
I need to get at the water pump (not a surprise) and the cross-support and supercharger mounting all use the kind of bolt pictured below.
First thought is an External Torx. So I bought a set. The E-torx have...
Interesting, I looked at this car in August of 2002. Same mileage as back then. Was listed at 89k and chane, so it is a little cheaper but maybe more negotiating space as they had this car a long time. I did not drive it. The trunk shocks would not hold the rear window up (so they need...
