Does anyone know if the front fascia material is ABS or RTM and if so what is the correct method to repair (4) 1/4" drilled holes (front license plate bracket mounting)?

    Question For Painters - Flexible Part

    I am getting ready to paint the front fascia of my black 95 RT/10. I'm using House of Kolor KS11 Ko-Seal black primer sealer, PPG DBC 9874 black basecoat and PPG 2021 Clear. I know a flex additive needs to be added to the clear but is not required for the DBC basecoat. What I'm wondering is...

    Heat Insulation in Side Exhaust Covers

    As I mentioned in another post I have removed the side exhaust covers to repaint as well as the front fascia. I noticed that the foil heat insulation inside the cover is held in place with aluminum rivets. The heads of the rivets show from the outside, both top and bottom of exhaust cover. Is...

    Here's my question. Since am a new Viper owner since July, I need some advice on this subject also. I have a Belanger cat back exhaust with the stock cats still in place. The dilema for me is install Belanger high flow cats in place of the stock cats or remove the stock cats and put straight...

    Installing Headers. Questions.

    Thanks Adam. Your help is appreciated. I will go with the ARP studs. Where can I get them? When you say disconnecting the exhaust from the exhaust manifold flange will make removing the shield easier, do you mean the manifold heat shields? I would think they would be removed from the top...

    Installing Headers. Questions.

    I'm thinking of installing a set of Belanger headers on my 95 RT/10 myself. I've done a considerable amount of automotive mechanical work so I'm confident I can do it. I just have a few questions for those that have already done it. 01. Are the heat shields just held in place by the nuts on...

    95 RT/10 DYNO RESULTS

    Looks like I'm close to what some of you had and short of others. I sure like Bill's numbers with limited mods. I'm hoping the addition of headers will get me close to the 400 rwhp mark. Ed, the additional mods that put you up to the 450 mark is what I really had in mind, but I think I'll...

    95 RT/10 DYNO RESULTS

    Well last week I finally got my 95 RT/10 over to Larry at Macedo MotorSports for a base line dyno. Larry checked the car out and then ran three dyno runs with cool down periods between. Each run got stronger which was nice to see. The only mods I have are smooth intake tubes, K&N filters...

    Mopar Performance Headers

    Apparently these are just stock exhaust manifold. When the verbage said "performance headers", I thought maybe Chrysler had an aftermarket company making actual performance headers for them. I apologize for the wild goose chase!

    Mopar Performance Headers

    Does anyone have any experience with Mopar Performance Shorty Headers for Gen I Vipers? If so, how do they compare to Belanger, B&B, etc.?

    Cat Delete - any smell?

    I know like most things loudness is subjective, but how much louder will a viper be with no cats. I currently have Belanger exhaust with cats in place and no headers yet but plan to put Belanger headers on by the first of the year. Without cats will the exhaust note be obnoxiously loud as you...

    Gary, I'm not a VCA member yet and won't be racing my viper but I assume my wife and I can still come as spectators or do we need to be guests of a current member? I would hate to miss this Viper action.

    Spark Plug Change - Any Secrets?

    I just installed the skip shift bypass harness and changed the oil and filter today so I felt pretty good. Next I want to change the plugs. The plugs on the left side should be a piece of cake since they are very easy to get to. Since the right side plugs are very tightly concealed I just...

    Hmmm.......What is YOUR story with your username?????

    When I bought my 95 Black Viper in July, the guy I bought it from in Vermont had "MAMBA" on the license plate. I love the name because the car reminds me of the black mamba snake. Black and deadly!! I tried to get the same plate in Florida put the name was already taken and I was so certain...
