    New Corvette engine to be smaller, heavier, and also used in trucks

    If this is indeed the case on the new engine, I suppose it's possible that this will be only available for the auto vettes. My guess is that all the auto makers are doing whatever they can to mitigate the ever restrictive cafe standards. My Chevy truck has the cylinder deactivation and it seems...

    Paxton Supercharged 2006 Coupe Build Thread

    Wow that's an incredible outcome, great job and super detailing of your build. One thing I thought about when you mentioned guys with turbos are making a couple of hundred more HP than you with a similar setup..................What is the real measureable HP loss of driving that Paxton at those...

    "Oh my god, there's a guy with a machete who's chained to the ground who says he's going to chop my head off in 10 seconds. Wait, can't you run away...........yes but that's not the point, he stabbed me in the eye two years ago when I walked into his lair. Oh my god, for the life of me someone...

    How many are waiting on a Gen V Vert?

    I guess I'm in the minority here. I was blown away by the design that Ralph showed at VOI. In my mind the coupe rear is the only way to go. The whole design lends itself so perfectly to a vert. Real rollbars are a must in my opinion as well. Build it and they will sell. Great work Ralph and Team...

    Just curious how you know this to be a fact on the new engine?

    Modding an ACR

    The issue, if you want to call it that, is that the aftermarket has not been able to crack so to speak the computers on the -08 and up Vipers. So within reason you are limited to minor mods and the Mopar performance ECU. It sounds like you weren't intending on supercharging your car, so you...

    Just got back from the Drag Strip ... running the car for the first time ---

    That's a great shot of your car at the starting line! Next time just drive around the water box, the guys at the track know better than to put you through the box with those tires.

    Modding an ACR

    Actually the ACR-X engine is significantly different from a production engine, including different pistons.

    Modding an ACR

    I don't own one of these newer cars, however I have heard that the lazy throttle response you have is due to the drive by wire throttle. As in no throttle cable, electronic actuation. I have also heard that the Mopar Performance controller helps to minimize that issue. I'm sure someone else will...

    Sounds like an awesome upgrade to the legendary small block chevy.

    Danny Sullivan driving my GTS

    Wow I'd forgotten about that save, just amazing. Look at that footage and take note at how slow the pit guys are compared to teams of today.

    Finally got my new Viper

    Great car, and great advice by everyone. If your not confident in doing your own work, or even if you are, you need to familiarize yourself with Tator's Garage. I believe your relatively close to Chuck Tator. The last thing I would do is go to the dealer.

    Found a 99 acr......is it reall?

    Actually it's pretty easy, get the VIN and have the Dodge dealer run a Vehicle information report. Getting pics of all the components is a great idea as well, just to confirm that they are there. ACR parts are crazy expensive.

    BUSTED

    The only property tax I pay is on the house. County income tax, really? Wow!

    BUSTED

    It's not in Editor, it's in my post #36. I tried to fix it with editor after the fact. Editor shows one "street", once out of editor it remains doubled.

    BUSTED

    Okay this is the second time this is happening to me. In the post above the word "street" shows up back to back in the first sentence. As written in typing it shows up once, yet once it posts up it's "street street". I can't correct it in "edit" either.

    BUSTED

    Twenty plus years ago when I was dumb and street racing, the cops would cruise the streets posing as street racers. They would would taunt you into a race then their buddies in black and whites would pull you over. My buddy got nailed this way, however at the time you'd just get a ticket for...

    new leak now

    Come on you have to admit, you put it out on a platter......just had to have some fun. Hope you get your issue sorted.

    new leak now

    Ok so you have a leak but don't actually want to look underneath? You have stains from an older problem but never wanted to clean up that mess either. OK................ What I can say is that your shoes are nice and stain free.

    GTS Shopper

    Weatherstrip for the Viper is crazy expensive, just something to remember. Sounds like a really nice car. Just an FYI, I keep hearing all these comments that cars will not sell for X. The bottom line is that a collector will pay much higher dollars than Joe Salami nickel and dimer. True, a...

    It's a 10 sec car for sure! What tires were you on, I'd imagine it was scary going straight down the track.
