    Engine Cooling Fan Upgrade?

    Had a mechanic install a new condenser that I purchased from AC Auto Solutions (https://autoacsolutions.com/products/). He wasn't impressed with how it was made. Not being a mechanic I'm not sure exactly what he meant other than he thought it wasn't a "modern" style condenser considering it was...

    smooth tubes

    I have the Roe polished aluminum smooth tubes on my Viper. Here is an interesting article about them but I'm sure it applies to all smooth tubes with the proper bend. https://motoiq.com/project-viper-gts-part-4-baseline-dyno-and-kn-intake-test/3/

    MD New Viper Owner

    Congrats on the Viper! I use Hagerty Insurance with an agreed value. You'll likely get several more recommendations on insurance carriers from others.

    Looking for A/C Condenser 4708206

    Did you install it yet? If so, do you recommend it ? Noticed it doesn't list 2002 but that must be a mistake on their part.

    1994 Spins over but won't crank

    You'll probably get a response soon, but it's best to ask this type of question on the RT/10 and GTS forum here. https://www.viperclub.org/vca/forums/rt-10-and-gts-discussions.168/

    Plugs and wires

    Are new OEM wires still available? Probably my first choice but can't find them. Will Quality Wires fit the cable separators?

    Insurance question

    I use Hagerty for my 02 RT/10. An agreed value of $60,000. About $1300 annually for insurance. I've heard good things about Erie Insurance, but I can't get that in South Carolina. Remember (you probably know) that insurance prices vary as per your driving record, age, gender, etc. Also, the area...

    Battery tender and mounting it inside engine bay

    Ran mine from the battery behind the rear wheel (Gen 2) out the bottom cover. No drilling required as there is a convenient opening.

    High flow cats vs other exhaust input

    You could look into Heatshield Armor. That's what I did on my Gen 2 along with hi-flow cats. The sound is perfect for me and the heat issue has been abated. The cats were not wrapped. Mechanic said it's best not to.

    High flow cats vs other exhaust input

    I have hi-flow cats on my '02 Viper. No drone and, like a fine wine, they get better (a little louder) over time. For me, it's the perfect subtle sound of power. Not too loud and definitely not stock, which was way too mellow for a Viper.

    Viper Red Paint

    Any good body shop should be able to match the paint. I had minor body damage to my red Viper. Body shop matched the paint perfectly both times I had it in the shop.

    PO441 Code

    PO442 code last month so I had the purge valve and several hoses replaced by a Dodge Service tech. Can't get the hoses so they used what they could get for replacement. Cost me a small fortune to have this done. Now I have a PO441 code, which indicates a purge flow fault. Thinking a hose came...
