    Soft clutch pedal

    Carguy07, did a search and found that routine earlier today. It did not help. I also have a vacuum bleed system, but that did not help either. I'll try a few more things tomorrow.

    Soft clutch pedal

    Changed out the clutch and flywheel on a 94' and can not get the pedal firm. I have bled and bled and bled, but it is still soft. Everything works but it’s hard to move the shifter thru the gears. Feels like the clutch needs to disengage slightly more. I am now thinking the slave may be weak...

    New forum Request for sheep.

    I saw it, I touched it, I heard it, I sat in it, I drove it. I loved it, I bought it. I did not base my decision on magazine articles, that’s insane. Can we please start a new forum where sheep that don’t have the self confidence to make their own decision on what they like can go and talk...

    Paxton SRT's

    Re: Paxton SRT\'s I dyno-ed my misting system last week and saw no HP increase at all, in fact maybe a slight decrease. Have I tuned it for the mist, no? Here is my concern. If you tune it for the mist, (i.e. more advance, leaner, high compression, etc) and the mist runs out or gets clogged...

    Paxton bogging / cutting out at 2500 - 3000 rpm

    Roe Racing has nice Mopar gauges. Got the pillar pod at Summit, don’t remember the part#, had to cut/grind to make it fit. I’ll shoots some pic’s tomorrow. I will have to disagree with GR8 on the A/F gauge. The A/Ff tells you the resultant of all that is going on in the engine. It is really...

    Paxton bogging / cutting out at 2500 - 3000 rpm

    Being able to diagnose problems like that is why I installed a fuel mixture gauge and boost gauge in the cockpit. Losing a pump and going lean with boost can easily get the pistons hot and cast pistons can crack so watch the mixture closely. The system is an add-on so I don’t install it and...

    What tires do you use on the street?

    I will have to agree Kia, the run flats are not bad tires at all. I did not always feel that way. I run on them all the time and I have a supercharger. I have two other sets of wheels, HRE’s with Sport Cups and a set of Forgeline’s with slicks. I run the stock tires on the street and Sport...

    HP and Torque

    HP is a calculation and is a resultant of torque and RPM. Horse Power = Torque X RPM divided by 5252 So a much better comparison of a car’s power should be torque not HP. Torque is what you feel when you stomp on the pedal. The Viper is a torque monster and to me that is essence of a...

    Paxton useres - Oil pooling

    No panic here, just a little oil blowing by the PCV. I employed a catch can and all is clean and an back in order. Thanks ViperX for the catch can suggestion. I ended up cutting the Moroso container by 2” and mounted it just next to the alternator and then just ran the hose right to it. Did...

    SRT's are not Photogenic

    SRT\'s are not Photogenic We see lots of pictures of SRT’s on this thread but I have still never seen pictures of SRT's that do justice to them. The car looks soooooo much better in person than any picture I have ever seen. Funny that even scale models don't reflect the feeling you get when...

    Paxton useres - Oil pooling

    I talked to Paxton and they confirmed that the oil on some cars can flow through and they confirmed the easiest solution is the catch can. Ordered the can from Summit but it pretty big. I am cutting it down a little and will see if it can be placed down below. Not sure how ViperX put it up...

    Paxton useres - Oil pooling

    Interesting, great feedback. I drive extremely aggressive and your comments make a lot of sense. I especially notice it after being at the track, so the SC pressure along with the oil being thrown back under acceleration seems logical. I already changed the hose and used real hose clamps...

    Paxton useres - Oil pooling

    I have been noticing an oil build up in the front of the engine. After the last Viper Days I decide to take a closer look. When taking off the intake plenum, I saw a pool of oil in the transitions between the plenum and the SC. There was also another pool between the SC and the intercooler...

    Anyone use a bullet/helmet cam for the track?

    Try www.chasecam.com . they have a similar bullet camera 480 lines though, same Sony Ex-View, little cheaper too. I use a 120Deg lens and it does a great job on showing speed and acceleration. Make sure you get a mic, the sound of the engine as so much to the video. I usually mount the...

    Mopar Performance/Hurst Short Throw Question

    Very confused here. The Hurst shifter has the same threads as the MGW knob, same threads as the stock knob. The stock knob will not fit because it is way too tall. The Hurst shifter is not too short for a ball/knob style. The Hurst shifter is too tall for the MGW First Strike shifter. What...

    Paxton and gearing comments wanted

    I asked this question several times after I installed my SC. I felt the 3.55 too much so I never changed the rear gear. I chose to keep the 3.07 when I installed the Quaife as well. Traction has always been an issue with the SC, but I have gotten much better at handling the car (after many...
