    Help. Clutch slave cylinder coupling.

    Looks remarkably like the pic I took for my Gen 2 tranny R&R DIY at the alley. You are welcome. And +1 on you don't need a new line.

    New Gen 2 front splitter available

    Why would I use any part or concept from your failed attempt at designing that splitter? My design will use none of those concepts of yours as proven by previously published pictures of mine, and your continued false claims about me and what I am doing with mine should be removed from this site...

    Some interesting comments at Viper Alley discussing this. Might be worth reading both threads.

    Motive Pressure Bleeder or Speed Bleeders?

    I've been vacuum bleeding brakes for years. Many Vipers. No fluid under pressure if something goes wrong.

    170/180 degree thermostat

    Go with a temperature that the car is tuned to run with. Likely, that is not 170. Like most things, there's a practical limit to bigger is better. Um, I mean colder is better. Unfortunately, redneck engineering sometimes supersedes actual engineering.

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    You don't need a booster. But buy one, and then bill all the people that think pedal fade = booster issues. All the booster does is alter the force required. Not the ultimate distance the pedal travels. You are displacing a non compressible fluid. The only reason the distance the pedal...

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    The brake booster going bad will not change the pedal travel. Just the force. The master cylinder however will if it is bypassing internally. Heat could be amplifying the problem once it heat soaks from under hood temps rising in traffic. On the clunking, check your diff mounts, axle hub...

    WTB: aftermarket roller rockers, radiator, guage pod

    I used a Roe 3-pass radiator and it lasted a few months. Sent it for warranty and the epoxy repair lasted something like a few days. Went through 2 Ron Davis units, one of which leaked new out of the box. I'm currently using a Howe AKA the old Alan's Performance. Matter of fact I like them...

    different brand of headers and HP/TQ gains

    50hp on an exhaust upgrade does sound a little spicy, but it may be so. One thing that always gets my attention on these hp comparison tests - the before and after mods - is the lack of true statistical validity to them. Even if there was a dyno involved, I, as a person who deals with matters...

    different brand of headers and HP/TQ gains

    +1 on the exhaust mods being light on numbers. When I went from a Corsa catback with rear delete, to Belangers h/f cats and 3" side exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers (plus an SCT email tune), I gained about 10 hp. That was 2 completely different dynos, so realistically it could have been 20 hp...

    different brand of headers and HP/TQ gains

    Belangers are super easy to install, average hp gains, great sound.

    Question to RT/10 Owners: Missing Part??

    Now you have to go pop the hood and find the ones on the cross brace lol.

    Serpentine Belt Differences

    The all season belts and tires are actually faster as the reduced weight takes less energy resulting in lower et's.

    Serpentine Belt Differences

    And... is it Good year, or Goodyear, the corporation?

    Serpentine Belt Differences

    That is not a sign of anything aftermarket, but instead, a belt that has the diagonal grooves that are engineered to remove water quickly from the friction surfaces should you drive in wet conditions.

    low idle

    The mark on the tach you are probably calling 500 is actually 750. Look at it again. The mark almost to the bottom is 500. The one below that is 250. And the final mark is 0.

    Have a brand new unlocked SCT Tuner, worth to do a mail order tune?

    Wholesale on that handheld is $100.00 If you can add a tune for $150 more you're doing better than most.

    Actually, the OP covered that in the first post. :rolleyes:
