    Side exhaust for a 1996 GTS

    I have decided that I am going to modify my '96 GTS to have side exhausts instead of rear exhaust. Anyone have a kit for this? As for the side cowls I'm just going to cut a hole for the exhaust pipe and finish the look with a riveted piece of aluminum :) Any and all direction/help is...

    Dream Car Garage Complete!

    I double checked the height and it's more like 13.5 feet :( When the garage was originally built, they installed 8' doors which wasted all of the height of the garage. I thought it would be cool to make this mod to my garage as it now utilizes all the space. Since I can't build to the sides...

    Dream Car Garage Complete!

    The ceilings are about 15 feet tall :) The floor _is_ painted, but it was done about 2 years ago. Also, check out this picture. A friend of mine reminded me that the real benefit of these lifts is that I have just turned my two-car garage into a four-car garage.

    Dream Car Garage Complete!

    Not only were they reasonably priced but Greg Smith was always available, he has on-staff tech support, and the lifts were delivered in two days. Finally, all the extras were included (casters, drip trays, and jack stands). Other companies charged hundreds of dollars for this stuff. The casters...

    Dream Car Garage Complete!

    After many weekends I have completed my dream car garage! The lifts were delivered by 18-wheeler and I needed to rent a forklift and flatbed tow truck to get the [******] things into my garage. I put the lifts together myself with help from two of my friends (I owe them BIG). The doors had to...

    Crankshaft Pulley

    Jack, www.summitracing.com had the best price for the pulley and I found the belt at www.napaonline.com. Got everything for less than $100.00 :-) Eric

    Crankshaft Pulley

    Last weekend was one AWESOME time at Road Atlanta! We had an awesome showing of Vipers and it was great to see everyone there! Unfortunately, two of us lost our power steering pump :-( I have already ordered Roe's PS radiator, but Sean also mentioned a smaller crankshaft pulley would provide...

    Check This Out.....

    I was watching "Trucks" on HotRod television the other week and saw the guy install this on his project truck. Very cool stuff, but again where would you route the exhaust? Eric

    Sean Roe VEC1

    Oh! One more thing... Is the A/F meter supposed to be jumping all over the place as I drive? At idle (no matter where I set the low dial) the car runs at the first red light (lean). Then when I do the 4rth gear 45mph-55mph test the car "bobbles" in the middle of the gauge (+12 or so). When I...

    jasontarnutzer, I am very new to tuning and don't understand what you mean by 'neutral' torque throttle setting. Could you please elaborate? Thank you!

    Sean Roe VEC1

    What the heck is a VEC2? I didn't even see this as an option at his Web site. I'm surprised Roe didn't tell me that something better was coming out in a few weeks and that I should wait :-( Is the VEC2 even an option for me with a '96 GTS? What will the VEC2 do that the VEC1 does not? I hope...

    Sean Roe VEC1

    Just installed the VEC1 today. My back is killing me :-) The installation took about 4 hours and the instructions were really great. Only thing is figure 6.2 was not clear and some of the instructions on where to route everything was unclear (again a better 6.2 would help). I found it much...

    Sean Roe Front Bumper Fascia Cooling Duct

    Nope. I didn't get the plexiglass inserts, but I do have front air ducts for the brakes. Now that I'm not running an airbox I should probably look into the plexiglass inserts as a way to reduce "under-hood" temperatures. Do you run these? If so, what have you found?

    Sean Roe Front Bumper Fascia Cooling Duct

    First, a discussion of the temp gauge. I will refer to the ticks as follows: tick a = dark tick at 100 tick b = light tick after 100 tick c = second tick after 100 tick d = first dark tick of the triple tick above 190 tick e = second dark tick of the triple tick above 190 tick f = third dark...

    Darn it! I'm stuck in Tucson and can't make it. Otherwise you could have counted me in. Don't forget to call me or e-mail me directly when track events come up. Thanks!

    Autolite 3923

    Hey Joseph! My sled is getting operated on by JD Farmer. He's doing the following: 1) TSB: re-weld the frame -- takes a week :-( 2) Roe front air dam kit 3) Fluidyne radiator 4) Roe radiator hoses 5) replace door stantions (sp?) and glass since my weather stripping has mysteriously disspeared...

    Autolite 3923

    Sean Roe recommended Autolite 3923 plugs for my Viper (mods described in my signature but can also be viewed at http://eric.schorvitz.com/cars/viper_blue.php ). Can anyone help me understand why I was recommended this plug and if anyone is using these plugs could you give me your opinion of...

    Changed all plugs today.

    Sean Roe recommended I use Autolite 3923 plugs in my GTS today. I did a search for these plugs on the ViperClub board and found nothing. Could someone let me know about these plugs and if they are a good choice. From what I understand, these plugs are "colder" -- not quite sure what that's going...

    Sparco Pro 2000

    Awesome story! I read a classified ad of a guy selling a car with a set of Sparco 2000s installed. I asked if he would swap seats with me since it would be easier to sell a car with stock seats. He agreed. Well, I went to pick up the seats. They were leather. Next, they had the Sparco sliders...
