    Made some more HP, broke my transmission :( any reccomendations?

    They must have added the Viper offering. A few years ago when I inquired, they didn't offer a complete trans for the Viper. Very interesting and I like the additional upgrades as well.

    Made some more HP, broke my transmission :( any reccomendations?

    Ohhh...and I picked the RAM SRT-10 T56 up locally for $1400.00 (perfect working order) and sold my gernaded stocker in a basket for $400...so deals are out there.

    Made some more HP, broke my transmission :( any reccomendations?

    All I needed to do to run the RAM T56 was to install the speed sensor tone ring on the output shaft (its already splined unlike the 6060), machine the rear housing to accept the speed sensor itself (trucks don't use one on the tranny), and find the larger driveshaft yoke since it uses the same...

    Made some more HP, broke my transmission :( any reccomendations?

    BahhhhHaaaa!! great post. Well, I've been there and done that with my ROE shredding my stock T56 input shaft gears on the gear cluster messing around in 3rd gear (like the photo). Donato recommended to me to simply go with an RAM SRT-10 T56 that uses the hardened 9310 gear sets with a less of a...

    Window Regulator: Failure: Plastic Block(Shuttle) Breakes: Replacements?

    Agree…I have the mill (Bridgeport) but haven't the need (yet) to fabricate one. So far, I was able to repair the one that split and reinstall the cable end on what remained. Yes…a billet one would be so slick and easy to make. Humm, might have a good product idea here!!!

    8lb vs 10lb? Roe Supercharger gurus welcome!

    Bottom-line: Just have fun with it and don't over think things too much..LOL. In your research, you should have discovered that no two ROE installations are the same. Just like no two water/meth installations are the same. Nor are water/meth concentrations the same. Nor are spark plugs the...

    I had to shed a tear yesterday.

    I should shoot a pic of mine. It is EXACTLY the same…but I caught a rock that chipped the windshield and over the course of a few months, it spiderweb'd.

    Wow no Roe Superchargers for sale anywhere huh?

    This weekend I'll have my 2.8H, Weaver pulley, and the #12 ROE pulley on the blower nose back on the road. Heat isn't an issue for me since with my modified manifold, I can now spray W/M both pre and post blower where in the past, I was restricted to just pre-blower W/M. And on that set-up...

    "ALERT" Big problems with GEICO Insurance

    ANd Progressive is pushing the ODB-II monitoring systems to evaluate your driving habits...and the ignorant consumer falls for the marketing scheme as a way to lower their rates. Just give it time and the Feds will mandate this type of surveillance.

    Any tips for visiting LA in October?

    Just got back myself. Pick-up a English to Spanish translation book so you can interact with the locals.

    Long term adaptive high?

    ..and good call on NOT doing the rear 02s They have nothing to do with your issues. In fact, I've turned mine "off" via reprogramming the engine controller and the engine couldn't be happier. Exact same emmission readings with or without the rear 02s.

    Jeff, SO what was the impact on your LTFTs since that was part of your original question?

    Tampa happenings this weekend?

    Turned out to be a crappy weekend for driving anyways...bad weather and a lot of lightening to boot. Hope you had a safe and enjoyable time nonetheless!! Roger on the rain-check and I'll be around most of the time with no out-of-the-country stuff planned for now.

    DIY: GenII O2 Sensor Harness Extension

    I did this several years ago and they are still working just fine. Makes relocating the 02s a piece of cake.

    Need Suggestions for New Radiator

    ...well like everything else...your actual mileage may vary. I loved the Fluidyne...massive radiator...but the weeping/seeping got old after a year of dealing with it. I never knew if it was going to spring a real leak or just keep dripping when cold. Regardless, just something I had to deal...

    Need Suggestions for New Radiator

    I had a FLUIDYNE for a number of years and then it started to leak...like Dan explains...aluminum expands at differing rates and across differing seams/joints. Given these fundamental truths, I have had it explained to me that its not a matter of IF your aluminum radiator will leak, but WHEN...

    Long term adaptive high?

    As you chase cause and effects, remember that all is not even engineered equal from the left bank to the right. Fuel enters the manifold on the left where it is initially exposed to the hot intake. It then is routed in the manifold via internal casting voids to the the right bank all while...

    Long term adaptive high?

    I would be screaming at the techs since these are well within normal ranges...given variances in injector flows and the FACT THAT YOU ARE USING 10% ethanol in the gas that will automatically cause an increase in LTFTs as the PCM compensates for the increased fuel needed to balance STFT/LTFTs...

    A/C out after A/C "fix"

    Which clutch?? Trans clutch or AC clutch. I'm thinking you are referring to the AC clutch since this is an AC issue...but not sure why you would need to limp home if the AC clutch isn't working. If the AC clutch locked-up, well yes, then you have some issues and would need to limp where ever...

    Gen 3/4 seats fit in our cars?

    Related Q: Are the drivers and passengers in a GEN-II the same? I've had them both out before, but never compared the two. Reason I ask is that my drivers is getting a bit worn but the passenger looks new. I'd like to switch them and use the passenger side for awhile!! Ha.

    Am I making what I should be making?

    50 pulls? WOW. I'd blow mine up tinkering with it that much. But I probably have that many street tuning pulls over the course of several years....

    Am I making what I should be making?

    Agree a bit low in my opinion all things being equal (which they are not). Bottlefed (Tim...hey where did you go Tim?) made solid mid 600's on his creampuff engine as well as numerous others as stated. I think as a rule of thumb, most 8 PSI ROEs on W/M are solidly in the 600's.

    Too much Acura in-breeding with this design IMO. Their gene pool looks to be a bit compromised.
