    Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, "Fastest shifting transmission"

    Re: Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, \"Fastest shifting transmission\" http://www.toomonline.com/gearboxlinks.htm Scroll down about 2/3 of the way, I found the link to the Patent there. I ALSO just got an e-mail from their Sales office stating it's an old patent, and they have a better...

    Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, "Fastest shifting transmission"

    [Drawings]: Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, \"Fastest shifting transmission\" The Roller Bearing Clutches (instead of syncros) are actually inside the gears. I've seen something similar before, but only on machines with less than 1hp motors (on a much smaller scale). I'm real curious about...

    Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, "Fastest shifting transmission"

    Re: Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, \"Fastest shifting transmission\" Found the patent: It uses ROLLER BEARING CLUTCHES instead of Syncros... I wonder how that will hold up under some real horsepower? (I'll post the drawings when I get to work tomorrow.)

    2001 rt 10

    Black was a 2000 model, not 2001, right? You might check for ABS (fuse box & ABS dash light) to ensure you're really looking at a 2001. My guess is $55k for an '00, upwards of $60k for an '01. Knock $5k off for a motivated seller.

    Conversation with a cool Statey

    Got pulled over by a fire truck (that wasn't on the way to a fire) for rounding a corner when the signal had gone from yellow to red. I was watching the intersection and not the light - oops. In our town, the Firemen and the Police are the same guys! I first thought I ran it yellow, and...

    Popular Mechanics Article

    Finally, after five years, they wrote about the Viper again... #1 Saleen S7 - 11.51, $447,048 #2 Ford GT - 11.69, $145,000 #3 Viper SRT-10 - 12.07, $84,795 "...to beat it at the strip, you'd have to roughly double its 84,795 sticker price." "...qualifies as scary fast in our book"...

    QUESTION about frequency and sound of engine fan

    When we park in the garage, the wife remarks that it sounds like a jet plane winding down. At idle the fan is quieter than the lifter tick (sounds like a sewing machine some days). When moving... it's an RT - so we can't even hear the stereo. I'm loosing my hearing anyway, so it really...

    Please analyze these pictures.

    Does having new Dunlop Sport 8000 tires have any significance? (It's just that I don't recall them ever being discussed as a tire of choice here.) I have seen elsewhere that they were mentioned as the least expensive tires, and with a questionable hood and front fascia, it sounds like a cheapest...

    NEW PICS OF MY GTS...

    After years of owning, and seeing mine daily, I still get a charge out of other people's great looking cars. :cool: But then, mine is just stock.

    Price for 2002 GTS with 8 miles

    Danny - isn't sticker on that $76,500? That's still NEW below MSRP. I'd say that was a deal for such a GREAT color combo. But what do I know ;)

    Anyone use Dodgevipersforsale.com??

    If you're asking for their HELP to get the Viper you want - EXPECT to pay them more for the car than the original seller wants... We can't expect them to be in business for free. (well, duh) They are NOT used-car-lot salesmen, and I think they truely EARN their keep.

    Gone in 60 seconds

    Hmmm... let's see... One friend had a "wired" 1977 f-body with 350hp. One switch killed all the rear lights, including break lights. I only know of one time it was actually used, and at 140, streetlights look like a picket fence. The police did a door-by-door search for the car, as it just...

    RMS WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY SCAM

    I wish I was in the market to get something for the viper today... I'd be buying it from PartsRack – they’ve always treated me and the people I know 100% RIGHT. Paying a few dollars more is NOTHING, considering the free consulting from someone who knows! Heck, I'd pay $100 more on $1k+...

    RMS is the Header Scammer not Viper23

    Has Lou EVER recanted his denial of the deal even existing? When it's claimed that JonB's so called "crying" was about others selling for less, and "killing a deal", I call that an accusation of price fixing. But with the MANUFACTURER (Lou) denying the deal even existed, they's no "killing" to...

    RMS is the Header Scammer not Viper23

    Accusing JonB of price fixing is pure Bull :mad: ONLY the Manufacturer (Lou B) can price fix - and it's NOT even that, as he builds a product and can charge what the market will bare. Don't like it, either buy another product, or build your own – and he's not the ONLY header manufacturer...
