    Is a line lock incompatible with ABS ?

    Dmitry, Thanks for the pic. This looks the same as my Hurst. My mechanic and I were looking at this area on the Viper earlier tonight, trying to figure out how to install the line lock (from above or through the wheel well). He will probably do this for me when he does my Quaiffe and clutch. TD

    Is a line lock incompatible with ABS ?

    VIPR GTS , Don't know if I was speaking with Larry Macedo, or another employee. 1) They have installed line locks on ABS cars without problems 2) They were aware of the Hurst "NOT FOR USE ON ABS SYSTEMS" statement 3) Instead, they use Biondo line locks, which I can purchase from Summit...

    Automobile magazine Poo Poo"s the new Coupe.

    Re: Automobile magazine Poo Poo Automobile magazine has some video of this comparo on their website. If you view it, you will see the ZO-6 and FGT pushed harder in exiting some corners, engaging the electronic yaw or traction control systems. In contrast, the driver seems more tepid with the...

    Is a line lock incompatible with ABS ?

    Daniel, thanks again, I'll get this installed now. The strip at Gateway International Raceway closed last weekend, so it will be a few months before I can try it out. TD

    Is a line lock incompatible with ABS ?

    Simms: Thanks. Macedo was helpful, and kindly provided a couple tips. Final GTS: Thank you. Do you install between the master cylinder and the ABS, or after the ABS unit? TD

    Is a line lock incompatible with ABS ?

    I don't want to install a line lock if it will negatively affect braking or braking components. Anyone know if this is a problem? I want to do some drag racing with my car, but need to maintain optimal braking performance for road course events. The instructions on the Hurst line lock state...

    Using a line lock on ABS equipped cars

    I purchased a Hurst Roll Control device (aka line lock) for my car. The instructions say it should not be used on ABS equipped vehicles, although no further explanation was given. I found that some SRT 10 owners have installed these successfully, notwithstanding the manufacturers warning. I...

    SRT 10 and aftermarket gauges

    Thanks for the info. Not suprised they are a single unit design, so I'll need to mount them somewhere. I am not currently in posession of an infrared thermometer, but your suggestion seems reasonable.

    Re: 355/25/19\'s and a Paxton! Okay John, Since you did such a nice job with your avatar, why don't you post a shot of those huge-arse tires? The stock 335's already look like steamrollers from behind. Let us see what you got! TD

    In a few short hours..........

    Congratulations. Be prepared for more attention. The yellow is striking, even better than VCA edition, IMO. Simple mods will put your performance (you mentioned 0-60) where you desire. Based on my two experiences, the above statement is correct! Good luck, TD

    Who's Chemically Cooling their Paxton blower

    Re: Who\'s Chemically Cooling their Paxton blower Yes, after exhaust modifications I also went to the VEC2 to avoid lean conditions. At the same time we installed 43 lb. injectors, along with an MSD voltage booster for the stock fuel pump. I won't be seeing lean conditions anytime soon. I am...

    SRT 10 and aftermarket gauges

    I would like to add a single (standard size,52mm) gauge to monitor boost and EGT, but there is not much real estate for this. My desire is to maintain a stock appearance to the dash/cockpit, so my first thought is to replace the voltage meter on the lowest position of the 4 vertically stacked...

    Who's Chemically Cooling their Paxton blower

    Re: Who\'s Chemically Cooling their Paxton blower Hold on BC, your diaper is off-topic for the moment. Dmitry, no water meth here, but I am using VEC2 to manage larger injectors with a supercharger. What are you using the VEC2 for? Are you using a Split Sec. FMU? The VEC2 requires some...

    Ready to purchase a Copperhead, need advice

    Jeff S., If you end up getting the Z06, you will have a great car that is a little more exclusive than some acknowledge, and the color is awesome. I do think the Copperhead color is going to get more rave reviews, but you already seem to appreciate that. My exhaust issue was solved for less...

    Brake Failure -- near catastrophe

    Dr. Fixbone, Sorry for the delayed response, but I do appreciate your alert to this (potential) brake pedal issue. I will check this as soon as possible, inasmuch as I am also the lucky owner of the Copperhead edition of the Viper (#1 of 300!). We should be diligent in resolving the question...

    Cheap, Simple, and Effective Video Camera Mount

    Paxton people !! Where did ya mount ur boost gauge??

    Good question, and good luck. None of the vendors with whom I have spoken offers an A-pillar mount for the SRT. I find the A-pillar location convenient for boost and EGT data during aggressive driving situations. Less distracting than looking down at the dashboard, IMO. I also checked with...
