    K&N Filter warning

    Tracy, "High compression. They don't use spark plugs, it's the high compression that creates the ignition. Therefore they have alot of suction." I don't see what compression has to do with the quantity of air sucked in. An engine with 400 cubic inches sucks in the same quantity of air if it...

    What's your thoughts on garage queens?

    Re: What\'s your thoughts on garage queens? There are so many of these cars, a decade old or even half that, with very low miles, that I'm thinking that there are lots of folks who really don't want to drive them very much. I think they like the idea of having a Viper a whole lot more than...

    OLD Headgaskets on Ebay

    Some day they will be worth a bunch of money when the classic car Vipers will need to be all OEM right down to the proper glue holding the underhood stickers in place . Look at what the classic Corvette guys have to do in order to get a high score. I'm sort of kidding about this, but it just...

    Bucking Viper....Yee Ha

    As I said, The bucking my 94 does at parking lot speed can be stopped by bracing the right foot against the trans tunnel carpet. This keeps me from getting bounced back off the gas a little and causing the bucking. It sounds as if there might be more than one cause for this bucking since mine...

    Why does everyone hate on the Gen 1?

    A true production roadster with sidepipes. A car that was the desire of almost everyone who saw it. The Gen1 is a classic. Of course, that was ten years ago. It is still a very desirable, powerful, classic car. I see no need to compare it's performance to every new high tech offering that...

    Do you guys pop your hood...

    "Does the viper need a cool down on a hot day, street driving?" No, it doesn't need any more special treatment than any other car. More than a few Viper owners seem to think they need to lots of things that really are not needed. Many of these guys just like to mess with their cars. More...

    Fjnally finished my custom center console [pics]

    Anyone who needs to move the window switches might consider replacing them with some other kind of switch. You don't really need that big oem rocker switch. There are plenty of smaller switch types that could be used. Some are very compact.

    Do you guys pop your hood...

    "#4. BTW... Whats up with all the battery tender hook ups? I've never had a weak battery." Who knows? Some guys think that Vipers need not only special cooling down but also special battery treatment. Special cool down isn't needed and battery tenders are not needed either, unless you are not...

    Keeping the viper cool in all this upcoming hot weather. Need ideas

    "I have seen in alot of cases that when you remove the thermostat the coolant will flow to fst through the radiator not allowing it to actually remove the heat and the engine will run hotter." Agentf1, this is not the case. Many people think that slowing flow through the radiator will give more...

    Keeping the viper cool in all this upcoming hot weather. Need ideas

    What do you mean by "heat soaked"? The radiator is going to transfer coolant heat to the air at some rate. The quantity of air flowing over the radiator and the temperature of the air will determine how much heat gets transferred out of the coolant. There isn't any point where anything gets...

    Rockers 1.5? 1.7? Whats the difference?

    "but .02" doesn't seem like enough" He was just using that number as an example. The extra lift is more than .02" But you are right, the rocker mod from 1.5 to 1.7 isn't going to turn your engine into a monster of power. And the downside is the 1.7 puts much more pressure on the pushrod side...

    Do you guys pop your hood...

    Anyone who is worried about the cool down after shut off should have a nice large floor mounted fan plugged into the garage power and blowing air in the front of the car. You might get a timer so it would shut off after an hour. Myself, I just put the car in the garage and leave the garage door...

    Lawyers Advice Needed... Damage Depreciation

    Dan, Wouldn't he be dealing with the insurance company of the other guy? The other guy is responsible for the damage. If he can show that the car has lost value because of a repair on the record, and the other guy's insurance will not pay for it, he could take the guy to court for it.

    Re: VIPAIR™ Dyno Results on 99 RT 16 RWHP!! acrdakota, If you think this thread is lame, why read it? And if you don't have a Viper, perhaps you should back off on the advice as to what we should do with our Vipers. And you would swear you were on the Corvette forum? You don't have one of...

    Re: This is a Catastrophe! I win Car Show, local paper calls my Viper a Vet Just in case you aren't kidding, the Corvette wave is the tradition that Corvette people have of giving a little wave when they see another Corvette on the road. I believe it may be a holdover from the days when all...
