    Estimated Power?

    I remember you ran the Roe 710 cam. When you say 'stock heads', did you not change the valve springs either?

    Little experience with manuals. Learning in a Viper.h

    Try to drive as many manual cars as you can before you get the Viper. ...........Test drive some junks off of used car lots if you have no other resource. Get the feel of how to start/stop and shift in traffic. You don't want to be trying to learn that in the Viper with everybody staring at...

    One Year of Ownership (on September 27)

    I still get the same stupid grin periodically too........and it's been over 7 years for me. :D Other cars can be nice, fast, whatever,....but the Viper is just intoxicating to drive.

    Stainless Brake Lines for Gen V?

    I would think the lines are different............at least for the rear, as the calipers are in a different location the previous cars. The front lines may be the same though. :rolleyes: Jon B would be able to help with this question. He seems to know what's up with Viper brakes. :)

    any tricks to change plug wires??

    From all the nightmare you are describing, it sounds like you have a gen III. Need to remove the intake manifold for the easiest access to the coil packs. All that wiper and cowl stuff can stay on the car. The gen IV wires are a lot easier. They are short leads that connect each coil to the...

    General Owners Concensus on the Gen 5

    .......................it seems as though the people that actually bought the gen V love it, have no regrets, and think it's killer. The non-buying, complain about everything tire-kicker dudes are the ones that think the gen V sucks, and was a major fail.

    throttle body sync

    No throttle body sync on a gen III, as there is only one. Problem is elsewhere,............will probably need a full-function scan tool to diagnose. ......unless you're a lucky guesser, or your buddy's car did the exact same thing, and he changed the $#@@$%^ and fixed it, and your car has the...

    New owner, older viper questions

    Vipers, like most stiff suspension sports cars, suck on rough roads. And yes, the Viper as a convertible is like a modern day Cobra. -You know Mr. Shelby was on the original design team for the Viper. Both cars are absolutely ridiculous. That's what makes them so fun. Watch out for cops.

    trasmission (or elsewhere) noise

    Yeah..........when in a parking lot with a bunch of hot girls looking at the car, push in the clutch right away when the clunking happens. That way you don't look like a dork that's driving a car while it's falling apart.

    trasmission (or elsewhere) noise

    ..............about being the only Viper at the car show, It's like that for most of us here in America too. With your Viper, you will always stand out in the crowd. :2tu:

    trasmission (or elsewhere) noise

    Sounds like normal Viper driveline clunk to me. All Vipers do this to some degree. They don't like going slow with you on and off the gas........

    Production Car Lap Records

    Yeah............I think a Viper record at any given track is a Viper record regardless of gen.

    Voucher Clarification ---- Good for 2013s, 2014s, and 2015s

    Gen I Electric Fan not working, Any tips or ideas appreciated.

    Fan tastic. ;) We're missing some other gremlin upstream somewhere obviously. There must be another relay before that one, that the PCM turns on to provide the pin 30 voltage. Then the relay we are obsessively checking is to control fan speed. Rather than losing any more sleep over it, I think...

    Production Car Lap Records

    The TA with the right driver in it should be able to best the ZR1 at HPR. The ZR1 1:55 lap was with a pro driver in the car, not any kind of factory test guy or regular hot shoe. Records like Laguna and N-ring are the ones that really count anyway as they are more well known as benchmark...

    Gen I Electric Fan not working, Any tips or ideas appreciated.

    :omg: Hmmm. Check the relay for continuity between 87 and 30 with it unplugged If it has continuity like that, the load side of the relay is shorted to itself. the relay is defective Leave the alternate power feed on the car, and replace the relay.

    Production Car Lap Records

    :( Unfortunately, that is not an official record recognized by HPR. It is a claimed 'record' by SRT after renting the track for a day to run timed laps and produce a video. Anything under 2:00 is really fast, specially in a production car with street tires and no mods at all. So, that is...

    Gen I Electric Fan not working, Any tips or ideas appreciated.

    Just looked up power distribution schematic. Shows fuse link for voltage supply, green/yellow and gray wires after links from heavy red wire. Green/yellow to fan relay load circuit, gray to ignition switch. If there's voltage in the green/yellow wire after the link, schematic shows a...

    Gen I Electric Fan not working, Any tips or ideas appreciated.

    Hmmm. Not good to jump 86 to 87 for very long, if at all. 85/86 are control circuits, 87/30 are load circuits. Wiring and voltage supply source for 86 are not heavy enough to carry the load of a fan motor. It would seem that no voltage at pin 30 is the problem. Lack of experience with your...
