    oil & filter

    Bonkers, thanks for reviving this thread. I went with the Napa gold filter, same as Wix (says wix right on the box). Mopar got inconsistant reviews in the thread above. I like the 15w50 Mobil 1, using it in my Z06 also. The difference in temp range is only 5 degrees between 10w and 15w and...

    Another "what's it worth" - advice please

    Re: Another I would say 49-53k, it is still a buyers market, take advantage of it... that is the best color combo ever. Everyone that sees my snake all cleaned up says the same.

    oil & filter

    If you read the analysis from the link above, the tester seemed to like the AC Delco. Would that be sacrilege to use a GM filter on a Viper ? Anyhoo, I may take a chance on the Napa gold, anyone know the part # ?

    oil & filter

    This is complicated ! Thanks for the info., I would not like to see the snake up in flames. Janni, how did the filter fail ?

    oil & filter

    Don, thanks for the link. I read the whole study. Looks like I will go with the Napa gold (same as Wix). Conclusion looks like AC Delco, Wix (napa gold), or Mobil 1, are the best choices. (K&N not in the study)

    oil & filter

    No local stores have Mobil 1 filters. My choices are Napa, Wix, Fram, AC Delco, & Motorcraft. Should I go with one of these, or drive 30+ miles for a K&N or Mobil 1 ?

    oil & filter

    Wal Mart has the 5 qt Mobil 1 jugs for $18.88; good deal. I'm using 15w50. Need help with a filter. Someone said in a previous post not to use the Napa gold series, why ? I need to know a good oil filter that I can pick up at a local parts store today. How about the Mobil 1 filter ? Thanks in...

    Do I get paperwork for my Extended Warranty?

    Justyn, I just had a warranty transferred on my recently purchased GTS, and yes I did receive the paperwork with a "gold card", but it took 2 months ! I thought something was wrong and my submission had been lost, so I kept calling the dealer where I submitted it. They were also surprised that...

    Do ALL Viper owners use...

    I use an Echo gas powered leaf blower, followed by royal velvet towels. If you go the leaf blower route, either buy an electric or a gas model that does not exhaust thru the blow tube (needs to have a seperate exhaust off the engine), otherwise it will blow tiny droplets of 2 cycle oil on your...

    Anyone have 3:55\'s with Roe SC? Do you like the combination? Does the car spin too much ? Would you rather have 3:33's, 3:45's ?

    Solution to insurance companies lowballing value is...

    Achilles, nice to talk with you. Call me back, I have more info for you. Basically, the language in the contract makes the coverage sound more strict than it really is. Grundy says that they are even thinking of updating the verbage in the contract to clarify. Bottom line, if you are driving for...

    Solution to insurance companies lowballing value is...

    Though my agent had already checked this, after Achilles last post, I wanted to be sure that I would be covered driving my cars around no matter where I was. Just got off the phone with an agent @ Grundy who says that your only coverage limits are: 1. No driving to work 2. No driving to...

    Solution to insurance companies lowballing value is...

    Signed the paperwork this AM to submit to Grundy. Yes they did require pictures of the car, including the engine & interrior. Thanks for everyone's input, and for the original post Paul. My agent actually did not represent Grundy until I mentioned that I was interested in it ( I was thinking of...

    Solution to insurance companies lowballing value is...

    Thanks for the replies. I have now found out Grundy quote does include basic UM and medical coverage.(medical is only $1000, not sure how the UM "basic coverage" works). My agent also called Grundy to find out about the wording in the contract as to when you are covered. It covers you driving...

    Solution to insurance companies lowballing value is...

    Lance, thanks for your input, there are usually 2 sides to every coin. But in this situation, I like the agreed value concept. The GTS and the Z06 are both too new to increase in value the way a collector car would. Yes the GTS's will go up in value but probably not for some time. You also have...

    Solution to insurance companies lowballing value is...

    Hey, I think Grundy looks great. I am currently adding my viper to my insurance ( with Z06, 300zxtt, & 95 tacoma ) Grundy would only take the viper & z06, but the rate for both was only $849/year ! With anyone else they were more like 1,000/year each. They are underwritten by Chubb (reputable...

    Need Viper washing tips

    Been using a leaf blower for about a year to dry cars, works great. Some people say to buy an electric, I use a gas Echo. If you use a gas model, be sure it does not exhaust through the blower tube. My Echo has an exhaust at the engine, the other type will blow tiny specs of oil onto the car...
