    Viper poll over on the Corvette Forum........

    Some folk like dem ugly arrh-Tees... I just want to know what all the GTS guys do when the whether's nice? On the other hand, I suppose I should park when I want to see the sights... is that why I see so many RT's on WreckedExotics.com? RT's are for show and GTS's for go? :2tu:

    Viper Frame a mess

    The "new style Hummer"... you mean the H2? Are we now changing the subject from Welding to a Gelding? I'm sure I'll offend some H2 owner, but come on? Why didn't they just call it the "Hummer Jr."? :rolleyes: Anyhow, thanks for the info, and Sorry all you H2 owners (not for my...

    Viper Frame a mess

    Kevin, I can understand why you'd want to shoot the horse (car) when its lame door trapped your wife in the car. In the stress of the moment (or any of the "door jam" moments), did using the manual-override handle work any differently than using the inside or outside electric releases...

    Viper Frame a mess

    Vipers don't have "tubs" like Corvettes or the old F-Body cars did. They literally sit you on the frame (there's sheetmetal connected directly to the frame rails that make up the floor, etc.) To flex as bad as Kevin suggests, you're either missing steal or missing (or broken) welds (probably...

    Viper Frame a mess

    Buyer's remorse gone wild? :confused: Naw... probably just "research gone wild", being the dealer was unable to fix it. But, with such focus on a "possible" cause of body flex, without actual measurements of flex... like: "the door gap changed xx/inch when parked on a hill, so I couldn't...

    Can Anybody look at this car for me?

    I was this -->.<-- close to getting a Lambo-C. But 15 years old, finding parts, and a reputable mechanic... maybe someday when I have nothing to do... Having looked into it in 2001 when I picked up the Viper, I'd have to say he has a very fair asking price, but you'll need to figure on...

    Viper Frame a mess

    I ran with 400hp in my Trans-Am (about 20 years ago), and discovered I was bending the frame when I noticed the front end camber could not be adjusted any further! I had a frame shop take the "torque twist" out, and then added about 40 lbs of steal to the front frame. Could have been worse...

    Viper Frame a mess

    Posting the x-ray pics would be cool... But, I completely agree with David (as I also have some TIG and other welding training). ...and I feel for you, it sounds like things just keep going down-hill. Having sued FOUR parties myself for a automobile related incident, you need to show...

    how to post a video?

    One of my data centers has direct fiber to the Internet backbone with (virtually) unlimited bandwidth, I use it for all the viper videos I post. If you e-mail me the video, I'll give you a link to it. (I can also have converted it to M-Peg, QuickTime, AVI, etc.)

    Where to buy a gallon of Viper Red Paint

    That's about DOUBLE what I paid for top grade automotive paint for my 2001 (viper)! ...and it was a PERFECT match. Go to your local Bodyshop SUPPLY Store - most all sell to the public.

    New Texas Driving law

    I got pulled over once for doing just that - providing a SAFE DISTANCE... the officer said it looked suspicious to distance myself from the police, as though I was trying to "hide" something. No ticket... just nothing better to do than check EVERY car on the road at 1am, I guess :rolleyes:

    oil change $'s

    Re: oil change $\'s Costco - $3.90/quart Labor - my two hands. After the first change cost me $100, I figured that I should get closer acquainted with my car!

    What should I do to my 2001 RT/10 ???

    First, before you go proving your strength on the road, learn that the rearend can come around easily under strong accelleration - don't loose it! Second, for around $8k you can get Sean Roe's or Paxton's supersharger kits. (Sean's probably the better way to go, and I have a friend with one...

    Serious about buying a Paxton blower

    Paxton has not answered even one of my "specific" questions about their product. Go figure :confused: ? Maybe I'm just asking questions that are too personal? Where things really got :eek: scary was when I heard (a rumor?) that you have to permanently remove the front frame cross-member...
