    How Are Propane/Nitrous Setups Done To Preserve Engine Life

    I read one of the posts on this subject which basically stated that such setups could be done to preserve engine life/longevity and I wonder specifically how this can be done. From personal experience (burned up a Calloway camero with nitrous) and from reading other forums, it has always been...

    Looking for a good shop to install nitrous on my SRT-10

    Viper D Would you give us a ball park figure for the nitrous system you had installed? Thanks

    Viper Coupe

    I am puzzled by some of the above. I think the current srt-10 looks great and certainly gets the "looks". I never liked the exaggerated shoe look. I think it's like the C5/C6 arguement as to looks. Personally, I do not like the looks of the C6. I think the slow down in srt-10 has more to do with...

    Nitrous systems

    ViperD How do you drive such a monster? When do you cut in the boost? That is, do you boost only in certain gears? Things happen fast with Nitrous so how do you shift? Give us the particulars. thanks

    Viper Tech Just called Back on the CLutch

    TacDoc I hear you. I guess that is why I got the extended warranty. I love the car--pure 1960s. So I will drive it like it should be, but I'll make sure I have a phone with me.

    Viper Tech Just called Back on the CLutch

    Dr Roof AND others Being a new viper owner, I am relatively appalled at some of these problems that are coming to light ie cam bolts, balancer, rear end pin, clutch, fly wheel etc. I did carefully look at the viper forums before buying. As an as aside, when I was into vettes, I noted there were...

    Reading the dipstick?

    I know I am a mechanical dummy. But do you just read the dipstick just on the side with the marks? I check the oil level the same way each time (usually cold in the AM--at least I get a consistent reading ). If I read the side with the marks, I get a reading. If I turn the dipstick over to the...

    just got an srt10 ram!

    Congrats on the ride. Did you have to pay above MSRP? Living in CA, the state of the surcharge, every time a new vehicle comes out, the dealers now try and surcharge. They are trying to surcharge the 300c with the hemi, the dodge station wagon with the hemi, and will surcharge the jeep with the...

    03 Viper Vs 03 Vette

    TK You will get one response out of me. Having spent years on the vette forums, this is a typical vette response, kind of pulled out of your a-- and is not really relevant to the above recent posts. Can't you tell when someone is jesting? The other typical response is the vette is"the best bang...

    03 Viper Vs 03 Vette

    Oh cripe, of course they do---you never really stay on top for long in this car business. That's the fun of having the 60s return. Got to take advantage of it until the next swing.

    03 Viper Vs 03 Vette

    Having had several z06s, it is not worth the gas to beat one. That's one of the great things about the viper. So if the C65 z06 comes out with 500hp, I just add a few relative cheap modes (10-20K ought to do that with ease).

    Did I mention the rearend busted in the SRT10..............

    Skip, thanks to you and everyone else for the info. So detroit tru trac is the best thing going right now? Where to buy one? Also I read that one person recommended buying the entire rear end, rather than change the components. Any comments on this? Also, if you strengthen the rear end and...

    Did I mention the rearend busted in the SRT10..............

    Having had multiple C5s and z06s (I am not trying to impune the above analysis) but people were blowing a lot of half shafts and rear ends, not to mention the infamous rear end leaks. Itsounds like some the 10s involved had previous work in terms of cam bolts and I wonder if this had something...

    Did I mention the rearend busted in the SRT10..............

    Thanks to all for the info. People keep speaking of the harmonic balancer and checking the tightness with there fingers. Exactly where is this bolt located and can I easily check it myself (at least with my fingers?

    Did I mention the rearend busted in the SRT10..............

    I am a mechanical dummy. What exactly is the balancer in the rear end? Also was this broken on a completely stock car or did we have a little boost to help? Also I assume that when people are calling for replacement of the "pin" that this is not something a dodge dealer is going to just do...

    Viper stitch on seats

    I do believe you have to do both. Not a bad idea and if done right should look good.

    Striped my red srt-10, kinda like the comp coupe.

    I like that blue on silver (I have silver). I think I'll do it. Any thoughts on having it painted vs tape? How much did it cost to paint on the silver on red? Thanks for doing the blue on silver
