So any other way of testing a alt and starter?
Put in a new battery and after a few starts it happened again. Could not crank. Battery terminal is corrosion free. I'm starting to think there might be a short somewhere on the viper
Changed my oil lines and now want to change my coolant.
Had a look under and could not find a drain valve. Do I Ned to remove the front bumper?
Also where can I find valve on the upper rad to let out air?
Just did mine yesterday. Lots of swearing and tag team with my friend. Took 8 hours. Did my oil change also. Make sure to dump a can of sea foam. Last oil change was less than 1k and after a can the sea foam was very black.
Would advise removing the oil filter for easier access. I did mine on...
how do you check a alternator?
when i turn the key to on the battery reads 12.1 or 12.2 v on the gauge and when the car is started it read 14 or a little over.
guess ill head down to the interstate store.
just opened up the battery compartment and it looks like a original battery from 05 when the car was bought. screws were hard to get off :/
kng snke - ill shoot you a pm if worse comes to worse.
had to jump start my car last night after the movies since the car would not turn over.
thought the alarm went off and drained it but went to the hardware store this morning and it happened again.
after going home a hooked a car charger to it till it read 100% charged. after first crank...
The vendor lines are 400 for the pair much more expensive then the after market racing lines. You can build your own stainless lines for $120.
Original lines have a crimping problem so it will eventually leak.
Didn't buy membership yet so I don't have access to that area.
So buy loosening the transmission mount I can jack the engine high enough so that the stock headers won't be a problem?
you guys have everything cheap.

have my viper insured under my parents name. they get 42%discount opposed to my 10%. parents pay $3400 with discount. i would have to pay $5500.
mine has comprehensive + road side plus but labled as a pleasure meaning cant drive to work school...
didnt loosen the trans mount.
have mopar exhaust
i have undone 2 the 2 nuts and 3 bolts. so i guess the transmission housing kept the engine from raising any higher. i hope i didnt damage anything.
with the transmission mount undone, can the engine be raised high enough that i can get the...
i purchased Hennessy mufflers without the headers. with these installed i plan to slice a mid section on the muffler and install clamps so i can change them out when i need to.
tackled my engine mounts on friday. spent 4 hours and manged to change the driver side only. i have a few problems and question that maybe you guys can answer.
had the car on hoist with a jack under the engine.
- had both engine mounts unbolted and while jacking the engine up the car still...
comes with the flex and no welding needed. i think i might hack the straight pipe and put clamps in so i can change to cats when needed. but still trying to find a place that sell just the piping.
found the perfect solution. the piping from the mopar race exhaust. tried contacting some dealers. non would sell just the piping.
does anyone have just the piping for sale? willing to buy asap
the cats and manifold have a exhaust manifold clamp attaching the 2 together. if i wanted to delete the cats and run piping. how would i go about attaching them together?
i will also reattach the stock cats every 2 years for emission inspection so i dont want to weld or hack at anything.
friends friend. went to pick up my ipad i left at his house. could hear the scrapes even with the windows up and the radio on :(
ill take a shot of it later. and ill be welding a bumper guard. no sense in spending a $100 when you can build you own :)
during winter month its what the cop thinks.
had redlined my viper with mopar exhaust past 2 cops and they gave me a thumbs up. guess its not loud enough :D

visited my friend downtown. has one of the mini curbs as you enter the building. had no problem getting in but when i left i forgot and i herd the inevitable sound of scraping. drove home and found very nasty scrapes and some even went down to the fiberglass. curse all curbs :mad:
hope they...
according to SAE (Society of Automotive Engineering) standards. Basically, the cop is supposed to measure the dB level about 0.5 meters, (1.7 feet) away from the exhaust tip, and a 45 degree angle
also they make your rev to 3k. if its around 100db its illegal
