    overheating again!

    Try the Roe Radiator Bleeder. Works perfectly every time. Nuff said. http://www.roeracing.com/productcart/pc/Upper-Radiator-Hose-Bleeder-Kit-1996-2002-Dodge-Viper-excl-1996-RT-10-p496.htm

    Dodge Viper driver loses control in deadly crash

    I know the Houston guys are taking this especially hard. Remember the good times. I'm sure there were many. Speedy recovery to the passenger.

    New Guy Question

    Yup they wanted $35K and I knocked it down a bit. I saw 2 more in the low 30's within a month of buying mine (again both red, low miles). Right around tax time last year.

    Huge Lamborghini, Viper, Ferrari, Ford GT, Lotus, Porsche, ETC. Drive Today

    Now that's awesome! I'll bet people were losing it when they saw that lineup. Nice job Michelle on the cam! I like the integration of the various makes. Locally, I would like to film more of our runs this year as well. Great footage, cool soundtrack.

    New Guy Question

    jav8or thx. I was originally looking for that sapphire blue but the reds are way more available. I was gonna fly out, but I was comfortable with the dealer and the inspection service. It also had a clean carfax, but that doesn't mean it's perfect, as you've read here. I paid for an open trailer...

    New Guy Question

    Our '97 GTS (red w/stripes) had 20K on the clock when we got it last April for $31K. Had it inspected on site and transported here within 10 days of when we found it. I know it's not your color (charcoal is sweet). The first one you find may also be THE one. Only you will know. Keep us posted...

    2001 Stereo upgrade

    Hey Ken, I'd like to see your pics of your install, especially the splices. I'm getting ready to install a Pioneer AVH-P5200DVD head unit with 2 BA amps in the back and Polk speakers all around. Stepping up to 6x9's in the back mounted in boxes.

    Diameter of factory exhaust on 98 GTS

    Since I still have the factory cats and resonators (shown in your pic), I'm going muffler delete which is easy and cheap. If that ends up being too loud (which I doubt), I'll add the magnaflow muffler.:D

    Hey Rob, Couldn't find the rear muffler delete on Partsrack. When did you get it?

    When do you plan on selling your Viper? Or are you keeping it forever.

    Keeping her for a long time and looking for the next one (sapphire blue w/stripes). Anyone wanna buy a '81 Vette? :D

    It was stupid and it felt good to be a jerk tonight!

    Funny ass resurrected thread ab. All I get from the kids around here is thumbs up but this one chick was screaming her phone # out the window at me last week. Wifey wouldn't have liked that... She would've done what you did!

    Did you buy your Viper because of it's speed or style?

    I worked in the auto industry for 15 years and was running a company at the Port of Baltimore from '97 - '99. We were blown away when the GTS's started arriving in every color combo. They were badged as Chrysler units bound for Europe on car carrier ships. Although I love all Vipers, the GTS had...

    Has anybody pinned the harmonic balancer to the crankshaft?

    Didn't know the P/S pulley was so suspect. Time to order the billet one and a new bracket. Great info from all.

    Has anybody pinned the harmonic balancer to the crankshaft?

    OK found this link, so it sounds like pinning with a new balancer is the way to go. http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/642102-Crankshaft-damper-bolt?highlight=harmonic+pinning What about the power steering cap vent (#5) and the pulley upgrade (#6)?

    new owner

    Still a Vette owner too. We have an '81 Charcoal but haven't driven it since we got the Viper. :D Are all of the fluids and filters up to date? Open that exhaust up. There is plenty of advice here as you'll find out. Congrats on the purchase and get used to the power curve!

    Gen III seats on a GTS

    I'm considering the 1" lowering kit on the stock seats so it still has fore/aft travel (2" kit is fixed). How do you like the Gen 3 seats in the GTS?

    Sold my Viper...

    You did the right thing. My sister and ex-wife both have breast cancer and are continually battling it. Stay strong, keep the faith, and look for your next Viper when the time is right!
