    Waterless Coolant

    My friend put it in his 28 model A when it was having heating issues, has been perfect ever since. Also, one of our customers with a STI was having detonation problems on the highway during pulls. He switched over to evans, and never had another issue. This stuff has been around for a long time...

    Why so many enthusiasts who own Vipers and not VCA members ?

    What he said, plus the closest club to me is over 800 miles away, soooooooooo, not really much value in it. What you need to realize is that us "non-members" may not donate money, but contribute in other ways. (DIY's, info, etc) I've never seen the paid DIY section here, but I'm sure there...

    Found the weakest point in my divetrain.......

    Was doing some tuning getting ready for an event this weekend and..... I just rolled into the throttle in third and she let go by 4800rpm. I don't power shift or launch my car, just easy pulls.. lol Found another trans at a great price! I'm gonna build this as a spare. Needs a gear...

    Got me a windows based tablet for the VEC

    Go to "settings" then "personal hotspot" and turn it on. It will show up as a wireless connection on anything with a wifi card. It's the bomb. Be careful that your cell provider doesn't charge you extra. My usage counts towards my data allotment. KNG SNKE - That is what I was using too. A...

    Got me a windows based tablet for the VEC

    Picked up an Acer Iconia W500 tablet running win 7 home and love it! Basically wanted it for street tuning the VEC, and it works perfectly. It comes with a keyboard docking station that is handy for reviewing logs and such after. Has a dual core processor and 2 gigs of ram. Couple this...

    Painted my valve covers and intake.

    Got them custom made from a seller on Ebay selling "Viper Supercharged" decals. Told him what I wanted, how big, and what color and this is what I ended up with. PM me if you want his Ebay user name.

    Painted my valve covers and intake.

    Got some miles on the painted parts and so far, so good. I switched my water/meth lines from yellow to black, and moved my throttle cables to the right a little so they aren't covering the text when you look in the engine bay.

    anyone powershifting?

    I used to power shift my 95 when it was stock, and it once sent me sideways on the 2-3 shift. (and I mean SIDEWAYS) I didn't find it a whole lot different than my other std V8 cars. Now that my car is twin turboed, I would have to be running really sticky tires on a well prepped track and...

    Another member of the broke RT-10 window club :(

    It makes a HUGE difference when cruising around with no top or windows. If you leave the back window in, you get beat all to crap by the wind. Removing the rear window is a must for me when going topless. Does make me want to make my own template just in case.

    Painted my valve covers and intake.

    Thanks! It didn't take much time to scrape the valve covers, the key is letting the paint stripper do all the work. Probably took 3 hours total, but only 30 min of scrapping.

    Painted my valve covers and intake.

    Still not completely back together, I want to get some allen head bolts for the valve covers as I found the socket was a tight fit against the valve cover when removing/installing bolts. I also sprayed the throttle bodies black too. I decided to sand the valve covers down, apply the decals...

    Wrecked 99 GTS ACR for Sale

    If you part it out, I would be interested in both window regulators.

    Painted my valve covers and intake.

    4 coats of yellow. Pulled the tape from the intake ribs so I can clear everything. Everything cleared. Now I'm just waiting on some Vinyl stickers. Just trying to decide if I want to clear over the stickers after I apply them to the valve covers or just leave them on top.

    Painted my valve covers and intake.

    Removed my intake and stripped it down. Removed valve covers and stripped. Trusty paint stripper. Coat the valve cover liberally and let it sit for 10 - 15 minutes. Start scraping. Work smart, not hard. If any powder coat is still stuck to the covers...

    Post your pic of your Gen 1 Vipers

    I find the newer wheels make a huge difference on our cars. I really like the SRT 5 spokes on racerjim's. This is a pic with 99 RT/10 doors (windows and all) on my 95 with a Mach 7 3 piece top.

    Bought a GTS. Can any Canadians help me with importing advice.

    It's a little bit of a drive, but this has stripes and a Roe on it for 41k. :) I've seen the car in person, looks to be in good shape. GLWS http://newbrunswick.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-cars-trucks-1998-Dodge-Viper-GTS-Coupe-W0QQAdIdZ327045847

    Flow capacity of stock fuel lines and integrated fuel rail

    46lb injectors at 75psi = 60.4 lb/hr 1000 flywheel hp with 100% duty cycle and a BSFC of .65 is showing a required injector size of 65 lb/hr. Also, if we factor in the boost pressure working against the fuel that the injector is trying to inject, your injector flow rate goes down. With...

    Flow capacity of stock fuel lines and integrated fuel rail

    Actually my calcs were with 600cc/min injectors. 46lb injectors seem borderline for those numbers.

    Flow capacity of stock fuel lines and integrated fuel rail

    I was thinking that this combo would be good for around 1000whp, and if you remove the parasitic loss of the supercharger, then it would be damn close. So Matt, what fuel pressure are you running at max boost? (or what is your max boost and FMU ratio). Thanks!

    Flow capacity of stock fuel lines and integrated fuel rail

    Side question coupe, did you run a line at the front of the manifold to equalize the rails? I believe there is just a cross over in the rear. I am planning to do what you mentioned, but was thinking of drilling and tapping the rails at the front for a cross over line. (maybe even tee in the...
