    110/112 Octane Fuel

    Higher Octane burns slower and cooler. Not likely to produce any octane gain.

    Mopar 3.55 gears discontinued...

    A waste of money. Unless you want to go slower (or creep in traffic a lot). :bonker:

    Looking for suggestions on Brake Rotors

    Chuck is 100% on target! If you think drilled or slotted rotor's make the car look like is "Cool" then satisfy your cosmetic need. If you have the need for speed, get the Stoptech system. Almost forgot to include taking a Skip Barber Driving Performance School/Racing school to learn how...

    Went to the track today, results were bad

    The stock gears are very good unless you run with slicks. Total waste of money unless you spend most of your time in very slow traffic. Jack hit the nail on the head you will lose about .2 seconds per shift. Going to the lower ratio added one more shift. Worse on a road coarse adding more...

    96 or 97 wheels ?

    Check any wheels for weld bead on cast wheels. It the drum is welded to the spoke section. The weld is on the outer edge of the drum/inner edge of spoke section. Easy to see and feel between spokes. Cast wheels have no weld. I bought what where supposed to be 97" wheels from a dealer and...

    Viper Build Quality

    Build quality of my 2003SRT10 is perfect. Would be happy to park my Viper next to any Corvette, and let the experts compare fit and finish. I have watched Vipers assembled and the panels painted and finished. These cars are finished as perfect as humanly possible.

    Buying first Viper (Arizona) and need some help please.

    flex...., suggest you take a Skip Barber performance driving school asap. To get a discount on the Skip Barber school join the VCA first. Viper Days is a fantastic open track event. But I like the idea of learning car control first. AT Skip Barber they provide the cars.

    Where to buy SS small head header bolts

    Metals of different composition with react chemically due to varying electrical potential. This is what causes the GEN one side sills to corrode around the fasteners. This link is an introduction to dissimilar metals reaction. http://www.corrosion-doctors.org/Definitions/galvanic-series.htm...

    COMPARE THE CARS

    To bad it is not totally correct. The 1999 and 2000 have the same mileage rating. The weights are also the same. And the 06 with 18" wheels. Maurice Liang noticed the errors. He produced the "Viper Buyers Guide".

    Which Viper to buy?

    17,000 on a 2000 is a low mileage car. Condition of cars should guide your choice. Use the "Viper Buyers Guide" to help make your choice. Have the care of choice inspected by a Certified Viper Tech as a condition of purchase. Replacing the tranny or major engine work can be very costly.

    Curious about SRT-10 Ram owner experiences...

    Love my Red QC. Mileage(9MPG in town - ~13 on the road @ 80-100MPH) is poor but with the fun factor who cares? All the SRT models are for those who enjoy driving.

    Which Viper to buy?

    Gear or No Gear

    I favor the stock 3:07 gears, As there is no reason to switch to a lower gear combo. Put 3:55's in my 97 GTS, the additional shifting on road courses was a real pain. It was also harder to keep the car balanced (shifting in turns is not a good idea to go fast). The longer gears make very good...
