    Are Factory Haeder Heat Shields Necessary For Belanger Headers Without Cats? (NT)

    My power brake booster failed after 24 months with the original SVP (aka Belanger) headers w/o the heat shields. I have reinstalled the shields.

    Head Gasket Weep - How do you know?

    At what point should we replace the head bolts (new stock item for PartsPack...hint, hint)?? I don't think you're supposed to reuse head bolts, and I have seen a head bolt fail (rebuilt 258ci AMC/Jeep engine) and it's not pretty. I guess to answer my own question, I would retorque once, and...

    last 300 side exhaust

    Do you have an Autoform hardtop? The underhood latch on the passenger side might cover the stamping, at least partially.

    Motor Trends GenIII numbers correct?

    What Steve isn't sharing is that the cd is well under .30 with the top up. People who are guessing the cd high haven't looked under the car. db

    It opens to the public in 30 minutes. I'm about a 7 minute train ride away, and heading there over my lunch hour. Fortunately, the Dodge display is at the main entrance. Dave

    Anybody been to Chicago Show????

    My observations from the Chicago Auto Show: The new Viper can best be described as EXTREME. The front end looks a tad bit wider than the back (viewed from front or back), but that's probably just an illusion. The raised back end takes some getting used to. The bigger rear wheels and meatier...

    Am i the only one disappointed with 2003 RT/10?

    The new snake was engineered to be the world-class production based road racer, SECOND TO NONE. That meant making it physically as close to a LeMans Prototype as possible, then adapting it to the street (and making DOT happy in the process). It was not an accident that it is MUCH wider with a...

    Late model Mopar Performance headers for a '93 RT/10 "Is it worth it?"

    Re: Late model Mopar Performance headers for a \'93 RT/10 \"Is it worth it?\" The horsepower increase would be slight, but more importantly, these headers won't bolt up to the '92-'97(?) factory exhaust. Dave

    Late model Mopar Performance headers for a '93 RT/10 "Is it worth it?"

    Re: Late model Mopar Performance headers for a \'93 RT/10 \"Is it worth it?\" Hey Rob, I didn't realize you already purchased the headers. What you may want to do is: install the headers, put your factory exhaust pipes on the shelf intact (or sell them), and then graft high-flow cats and...

    Late model Mopar Performance headers for a '93 RT/10 "Is it worth it?"

    Re: Late model Mopar Performance headers for a \'93 RT/10 \"Is it worth it?\" Yes, it does bolt up to the heads, but it doesn't bolt up to the factory exhaust on your car. You need to cut the factory exhaust at the cats and weld in the "header-to-cat" pipes. Too much effort for what you...

    Cone filters and the rain

    Wayne, I believe you have the TNT cone filter kit which should be no problem in the rain. The concern comes with the K&N brand cone filter kit, where the filters essentially sit in a "bucket" that catches water from the NACA duct. PS - Take it easy with your car... I'm still interested in...
