    valve springs

    My heads don't have Jeff's stamp on them, so it doesn't look like the failure was on a striker. I think you're right about changing all of the springs, but I'm not sure which ones to get. Summit Racing said it depended on my cam, which I don't know the specifications(former SVS car.) I'd sure...

    valve springs

    This is the kind of support and generosity that makes me love this forum. :brick: I am getting some help from Jeff at Striker. Pointing me toward Greg is also going to be useful in the future. Thanks, Guys.

    valve springs

    Does anyone know what valve springs are used on Stryker heads? I'm pretty sure my heads are not stock, and I remember the name Stryker. I have two broken springs that need replaced. Can I buy just a couple? I don't think there's been any damage to the valves, but I guess I won't know until I...

    looking for a used HANS

    I think used HANS are going to be hard to come by. The prices have dropped alot over the past couple of years. Look at Saferacer.com; I remember seeing some advertised for under $600.

    Gas Pedal fell off!

    I turned the plastic housing over so I could insert the pin from left to right. I think most pressure on the pedal would be in a left to right direction, esp if heel/toeing. I took the pin to Lowes and found a cap that tapped onto the end of the pin. So far so good. I also picked up some C...

    09 ZR1, didn't buy it!

    I LIKE the fact that my Corvette blends in so well. I don't want to attract attention to myself when driving on the street. I prefer to be anonymous. I drive my Viper exclusively on the racetrack. It better perform well there, because everyone expects it to. No point in street racing or bench...

    Summit Point

    Nice write up. It was such a hot weekend, my temps were over 200, too. I didn't look at the gauge for too long, so I don't know the exact temp. I flushed the coolant and replaced it w/ water and water wetter this week. Try not to give the Ferrari so much of a headstart next time. He had time...

    Summit Point

    Hey Frank, There is a picture of you chasing down the Ferrari at SP. Pretty good, considering all the traffic you had to negotiate. See if this link works: Turn 10 imaging- powered by SmugMug

    feeding the snake?

    It is a '96. I'm not sure of the brand of the top, but here's another pic: I liked the first picture b/c the P-car kinda looks like Mr. Bill if you squint at it. "Oh No!" Hey Juli, I don't know if they'll let me attend VCA events since my car isn't street legal. I'd have to attend in my...

    feeding the snake?

    Is this the proper diet for my Viper? How many should I feed it, and how often?

    master cylinder

    For anyone interested, it looks like it is a 3/8" banjo bolt. I pulled the bolt and took it to Lowes and put it in their sizing moulds.

    master cylinder

    I'd like to install a pressure sensitive switch for my brake lights on my '96 race car. OE equipment is gone/ never saw it. I don't know if my master cylinders are original. They are Lockheed CP2293. I need to know the size of the banjo bolt that connects to my brake line. A 9/16 wrench fits it...

    shift light

    Can a shift light be added to the factory tachometer? Any DIY tips? I'm not used to the tach location yet. A shift light could help me keep my eyes on the race track and not over-rev.

    ? for northeast guys

    I have instructed at this event for a few years, usually w/ the Corvette club. I have already received an offer to instruct for them this year. I might rather instruct a Viper student. With which club will most Vipers register, and what is their instructor protocol?

    Viper done blowed up!! Help!!!

    Hey Aries, How did your situation work out? I thought about taking my Viper to the dyno @ AR, but they always tried to sell me their own electronics/tuning stuff when I was there in the past. I know they can build imports, but are you happy w/ how the Viper turned out?

    year clarification

    Yeah, It's me, Frank. You and I read the same forums. I find specific car forums to be better sources of information than any other place. I tend to have lots of questions and use the "search" feature. I try to learn from others and hope they can learn from me. You may know more about my car...

    VIR Dec 6-7

    Nate, CHIN holds events that provide lots of seat time. No competition. They usually require point-bys for passing. There are usually a full spectrum of cars participating; some are quite fast and exotic. I chose them over the NASA event b/c it is a shorter drive for me and the size of the field...

    year clarification

    My car is white but it has aftermarket parts so I'm not sure what is stock and what isn't. The original stripes do come to a point on the front fascia. It has sidepipes, but I think they could have been added along w/ the headers. The original wheels are 5 spoke, also white. The magazine...

    VIR Dec 6-7

    I'm going to the CHIN event @ VIR in early December to get a feel for the car. Is anyone else from the forum going to be there in a Viper?

    year clarification

    I recently got a 1996 RT10. Some VIPER magazines came w/ the car. One article stated that no convertibles were made in 1996 b/c of a change in assembly plants. So is my car a 1995 badged as a '96, or is it really a '96 in the eyes of the VCA? The code on the title is for '96.
