    4 POST CAR LIFT GROUP BUY!!! MORE INSIDE. NOT A BAD DEAL.

    Before I buy a lift, I would do a little research. There have been a few lifts posted on forums that have fallen. I personally do not know anything about this lift so I can only comment from the pictures. Here are a few items I see that concern me: It appears that the "stop locks" are...

    clutch install

    There are actually a few tips: When you pull the drive shaft and Trans mount, allow the back of the motor to rock down a little. If you have headers, you will have to disconnect them first. Then use a LONG extension on your socket handle. 3 foot would work. You can then get to all the bell...

    Looking for a jack to use with my 4 post lift

    I use hydraulic scissor jacks. They are basically a heavy duty scissor jack that has a horizontal bottle jack to lift the car. The set really low and are much more stable than a bottle jack. Cost is about $50 each. The bottle jacks are too tall in many cases on a four post lift. They are all...

    Other than the Viper, what exotic car holds it's value well?

    Re: Other than the Viper, what exotic car holds it\'s value well? Wow… I could write a book here, but I won’t. Maintenance on an Italian car is not the same as a Viper. It will be higher. I think the biggest problem is that many of these cars do not get driven and deterioration will take...

    Damage from ford, how bad is it? pics

    I would say to fix it correctly, based on the pictures, it could be totalled. You need a hood, front fascia, side sill, wheels. Scrapping that hard, most likely you will need a frame. Think positive, that Viper will be on Ebay in 90 days stating "Perfect Viper, never any paint work or repairs...

    150 MPH VIPER CRASH ON VIDEO

    That has to be a record for the longest Internet Video! That Hospital looks primitive by our standards. When I saw the stickers.... I knew right off that was a Gumball car. Really makes you want to slow down.

    Cream-puff cam vs stock GEN2

    1998 was the last year that did not meet 50 state smog emissions. My preference is 1998 and 1999 Vipers that offer the “708” Cam and Forged Pistons. The highest bone stock Viper I have seen was a 2000. One of the weakest Vipers I have seen was also a 2000 (same Dyno shop). When the numbers...

    V-10 Nationals Picture

    All I can say is that Pictureman does FANTASTIC work. I ordered three framed pictures from him. They were VOI8, KS Speedway, Kansas V10 Nationals. Pictureman is not a hobbyist. His line of work is photography. Pictureman is the official photographer for Viper Days and VOI. I hope that V10...

    Revolution 4 Post Lift for storage or service - With Price

    Andy, I was sure that I purchased my Scissor Jack from Northern Tool. I just looked and did not see any listed. Ted, I would call Revolution to double check. I think you might be just fine with 6600 pounds. Most lifts are safety rated about 1/3 of their failure capacity. TwinVipers...

    Kansas City VCA Holiday Charity Auction Raises $11,000!

    I was wondering when Chris would chime in. I knew we would raise a lot of money this year for charity. Last year we had about 40 members. This year we skyrocketed to 87 attendees. Now it will be tough to break the record next year. At the rate our club is growing...we might be able to do it.

    Gerald, What did you do to fix the problem? Others, Does anyone have the problem on a bone stock car?

    Random High Idle / Sticking Idle - <master thread>

    I think the problem is the PCM. It has something to do with a bad program code. The factory programmed in a slight delay when the throttle is released. They had to. With the big V10, you get lots of "engine brake". If the RPMs would drop to idle after a red line burst, you might lock up the...

    Random High Idle / Sticking Idle - <master thread>

    1) Usually if the temperature is below 60 degrees 2) 1998 3) When my car WAS stock...I did not have the problem 4) Yes 5) Yes, Belanger 6) None 7) Replaced the 02 Sensors/battery My PCM was not holding SRI memory data. So under warranty I had it replaced. Odd thing is that I went from a factory...

    Random High Idle / Sticking Idle - <master thread>

    Random High Idle / Sticking Idle I wanted to start a new master thread to help resolve the high idle and random sticking idle that many of our Vipers experience. What I am looking for are Vipers that idle normal and at times the idle will hang for a period of time. I have read the prior...

    Shipping UPS..Why do I even try??? GET THIS!

    In defense of UPS I know why their pricing is so much higher. I worked for them while in school (they paid pretty well). Their system is setup for “standard” size boxes. So when you come up with an odd ball size box, they charge a fortune because it must be hand carried through the sorting...

    I still hate OBDII - evap, heated o2 and other frustrations

    JD, I am somewhat confused on what year PCM you were having the problem with? In 2000 they changed the "warm up" time for the 02 sensors to become active for emissions. If you had a 2000 or newer PCM running Belanger Headers that is your problem. The location of the 02 is on the collector and...
