    How Hard is Installing Headers and Exhaust System

    Before I installed my headers I did a search and found a good thread on installing headers, in this thread someone posted up "use a thread chaser, not to be confused with a tap" I think a thread chaser is different from a tap, I dont think its tapered nor is it designed to cut through metal as a...

    How Hard is Installing Headers and Exhaust System

    does anyone have a link or picture of what a thread chaser looks like? I've never used one before. Hey Garwood I just got done pulling my headers off my red Viper, I'm selling the red Viper but before I do I want those headers on my black car. So I'm swapping manifolds off my black Viper...

    Need opinions on which exhaust I should keep

    Hey 94, yea its definitly a cat, I assume its a high flow cat. I just tried to pass my socket extention through it and no go.. After looking inside with a flashlight it was your typical honey comb catalytic converter.. I think I'll swap the 3" exhaust over, I can always gut the cat out or cut it...

    Need opinions on which exhaust I should keep

    ah ok, yea, the best exhaust is no exhaust on a forced induction car, really the only thing I car about it diameter size and how well the rear tips look, you dont see the rest of it... stainless is a plus, no rust.

    Need opinions on which exhaust I should keep

    In the 1st pic, what is that first part. I'm assuming its a high flow cat and then a muffler? Or maybe just a resonater then a muffler? I'm not sure.. being that the black car has a straight pipe it might flow better although its a bit smaller.

    Need opinions on which exhaust I should keep

    :confused: what do you mean by that? I dont have a Belanger exhaust..The black car has a Borla, I think the Borla looks much better, but I used to build 800+HP Supras and one thing that holds true with forced induction, the larger the exhaust the better, thats the only reason I was considering...

    Some here already know I purchased a red 1997 5,500 mile GTS with headers, exhaust, short shifter, and some side vent grill pieces.. all of these mods minus the exhasut system have been swapped onto my black Roe Supercharged Viper. A week after I bought the red 1997 Viper I found a deal on a...

    Gen IIIs cheaper than Gen IIs

    Yes, there was one GENIII up for sale for 49K with 45,000 miles, he said he would take 46K for it, I too feel the GenII's will hold their value much better than the GenIII's, the GenIII's just don't come off looking like a Viper to me, many people confuse it for the new Vett, my 99GTS never gets...

    Got a fuel leak, need advise

    Check to see if what might have gotten kinked? Its a hard line what could be kinked in there? Its not leaking at the back of the intake manifold, its leaking at the end of the line where you see that black plastic piece that is going around the hard fuel line, I think what your trying to say is...

    Roe blower limits

    Shelby, does the 99GTS run out of injector over 600RWHP or do I simply have to install a 2nd fuel pump to take it over that level? On my old Supra we used to install two Walbro fuel pumos in the tank which was good up to 1000RWHP, can the same thing be done on the GTS? I'm thinking about running...

    Installing a short shifter

    Thanks for all of the responses, there was a short stud that screws into that metal arm that the shifter screws into, I was afraid to pull too hard on the stud fearing I could damage the linkage however I put my air ratchet on it and the stud came right out, everything is installed so I'm all...

    Roe blower limits

    I have the Roe blower on my 99 GTS Viper, also have headers and full exhaust. I've heard of people running 10psi with the Roe blower but isn't that a bit too much with no intercooler / methonal on pump gas? I currently have the 8psi pully and my car is running Sean Roes base map of 6 degrees...

    Got a fuel leak, need advise

    Yesterday I noticed a puddle under the Viper, I initally thought it was oil due to my tan epoxy floors but as it turns out it is fuel leaking, there is a steel braided fuel line as you can see in the picture which goes into a metal coupler of some sort, then coming out of the metal coupler there...

I was going to pull the entire shifter from the tranny but the bolts are not directly unter the tunnel hole, do you have to drop the tranny down to unbolt the shifter? Or so I have to drill a new...
