    Looking for HVAC actuator door info

    I didn't get the whole thing out when I tried to fix it before. There was enough of a stub sticking out that I tried to epoxy the end back on, but it wasn't a clean break, so it was hard to get it lined back up correctly. The problem is there are 4 different doors in the box as I understand it...

    Looking for HVAC actuator door info

    Several years ago the shaft of the blend door on my HVAC box twisted off on my 04. I tried to epoxy it back together, but it's a pretty soft plastic and I don't think I got it clocked correctly as the A/C just doesn't blow as cold anymore and the heater blows pretty hot from even as low as 1/4...

    Info Wanted: Metal paint samples from manufacturer 1991 & 1992 Has anyone seen this before?

    Sure, feel free to list it. We used to have a classified section, but so much of that has moved to Facebook that we just sort of went that way. People still throw stuff up on the forums from time to time though, so I don't see a problem with it. As long as people aren't spamming listing and...

    Gen 1 RT/10 ROE supercharger

    I was thinking the only real issue with the setup was tuning, not necessarily physical installation, though I'm not as well versed on the earlier cars. At least that was my main impression for why they never offered the kit for gen 1s at the time.

    2005 Viper convertible top

    You might be able to get your existing top recovered. I looked into that a while back on my 04. I had some parts where the heat bond that kept two panels together was starting to come loose. I believe the material is made by Haartz (Twillfast II based on their website search). I talked with...

    Simmons Three Point seat belt

    The Viper never really had much in the way of options, so I'd be hesitant to think they would have offered different "regular" seatbelts. I thought they might have offered a full racing harness for stuff like the ACR, though I don't recall if they even went that far or just put the anchors in...

    Headlight Lens

    I'm not sure 3D printing quite suits something like a clear lens yet. Maybe you could get there with post processing on a resin print, but I think layer lines are still sort of an issue. That being said, I'm pretty sure you could make a replacement cover with something as simple as vacuum...

    2008 SRT-10 Coupe - 10 Second Quarter Mile Passes

    Wow, that's getting with the program on a basically stock car. Impressive what some good tires and driving can do.

    Viper Dana Super 44 Rebuild (How-to) - Gen 3/4/5 (2003-2017)

    Funny story, but it's actually not, lol. It was a carb when I started, but what is in that picture is a 4 barrel throttle body that looks like a carb. Got it in a package deal with the Megasquirt and a bunch of other stuff. The setup I bought was originally installed on a 340 and the guy took...

    Help! Gen 1 leaking engine coolant

    The earlier gen 1s were known for leaking from the head gaskets over time. They were the older paper style, not the modern MLS metal ones. Sitting around seemed to cause it more than anything, but I think it was more typical to see it leak down the side of the engine block than into the valley...

    Viper Dana Super 44 Rebuild (How-to) - Gen 3/4/5 (2003-2017)

    Not the most recent pictures, but here are a couple I've got handy at least. Outside still pretty much looks the same, but I've since redone the wiring on the engine bay a little bit. The interior is decently different now as well as I went to a set of Genesis Couple seats I got from a...

    Viper Dana Super 44 Rebuild (How-to) - Gen 3/4/5 (2003-2017)

    Huh, that's pretty interesting. The Megasquirt on my 67 Dart does gear position calculation based on speed and rpm as well for things like boost by gear and I'm sure some other features. I only use it for datalogging as I don't have boost on my car, but neat to see how it can be used in other...

    Stock Amplifier question on 06 SRT

    I believe that is just an accessory plug for Dodge radios in general. So things like Sirius, CD changes, etc. use it if it's the plug I'm thinking of. Do the coupes have CD changers in the back? I know the convertibles don't, but could see one in a coupe without too much difficulty. I'm not...

    Stock Amplifier question on 06 SRT

    The Viper uses an amplified antenna in the windshield, so it would need power at least, similar to a retractable antenna on other cars. A lot of aftermarket radios call that a "amp" or "trigger" wire. Though since the Viper has as amp as well I don't know off the top of my head if the signal...

    Driver window

    I wouldn't think so. Hall sensors are basically just switches and most are fairly tolerant of voltage, though don't take that as gospel. Looking at the wires I'd go off your original assessment of gauge as a starting point. To me it looks like the red, yellow, and blue wires are the thicker...

    Trackday Brake Questions

    Wow, that's a pretty awesome chart. Seems like the kind of thing you almost never see because of "company secrecy" kind of stuff.

    Central locking / BCM issue

    The horn chirp on lock/unlock is configurable, so I wouldn't worry too much about that one at the moment at least. Also, probably a stupid question, but I know it catches a lot of people when they first get in my car. You are trying to use the switches on the door to lock/unlock things...

    Trackday Brake Questions

    Bedding or incompatible compounds between whatever was on the rotor and your new pad would be my first guess, but that's just based off of what I've read about brakes. Aggressive pads are supposed to wear faster, but I'd agree that just an hour of track time is way faster than what seems...

    BRAKES

    Depends how far you want to go as far as upgrading. A good set of pads can make a decent difference, though obviously less than something like a big brake kit upgrade. I started using Carbotech stuff so I can swap between street and race pads as needed without having to worry about break in...

    SIDE SILL CORROSION - HELP !

    I think you just need to find someone who can do aluminum repair. Since Ford or whoever did the whole aluminum truck bed thing, that might not be as hard to come by at a body shop nowadays. The shape isn't super complex either since it's pretty much just a flat panel if the corrosion hasn't...

    History and Viper Ownership

    Why not get both? Lol. That's my problem, I like cars just a little too much, so I can never bring myself to sell them. I wish I cared just a little less so I could buy one, enjoy it for a while, then sell it and get the next one to try out. Instead I buy one, do a lot of work, get attached...

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    Walmart is usually one of the first places I go for oil as they have always carried Mobil 1 for a pretty good price. I've never had trouble finding the bigger jugs, though I haven't been in a while either. Finding the right weight has been a challenge from time to time though.

    Driving me crazy

    If you have problems with the door chimes, key cylinder, and interior lights, I'd be looking at the door switches or the BCM as a whole as the problem. A lot of those issues seem like they could be related. What's the history on the car? Almost sounds like a flood victim with a lot of...

    2010 ACR Blowing Coolant out overflow

    This one is a weird one for sure. Only other thing I could think of would be some kind of a blockage in the system that is causing the pump to overpressurize from flow, not necessarily heat. Some rubber hoses have been known to break down on the inside and block flow once enough pressure is...

    Gen 4 Heads on Gen 3

    Mopar made a kit for this as well at one point. I believe the biggest changes were the intake setup as they had a sort of hybrid gen 3/4 unit with a cable throttle body since the gen 4 and 5 are both drive by wire. I know there is more to it than that, but that was the biggest "custom" piece...
