    Hedder bolts

    You need to pay attention to the short side radius area of the mid-bank cylinders for clearance and wrench access. You may need something a little different.

    That's the fingerprint of a broken resistor wire.

    96 GTS recommendations for resonators

    I have 3" HF cats, 3" Moroso Spiral Flow mufflers in the sills and a 2.5" x-pipe. Moderately louder than stock and no drone at all.

    V10 engine weight

    My engine and trans are out right now and I have scales. I'll give you the Gen 2 weight in a couple weeks.

    Mobil 1: "Ask The Pro" Response... "Why You Should Change Your Engine Oil Annually"

    Short trips and heavy loads when not fully warmed up are what's worst for engine oil. If the engine doesn't get the fan cycling regularly with water temps above 212F, your water condensate will acidify and sludge deposits begin to form. If you run too cool a t-stat, you may not get the crankcase...

    Dodge 8.0 Differences?

    The amount of them damaged by loose damper bolts is staggering. Followed by banging the Rev limiter in High-G corners on the track and starving the #3 rod jounal.

    Gen 2 track thoughts

    Sean, I've rarely had trouble with the clutch in almost 30 years of track driving. I've run the same Luk pressure plate and disk at modest power levels for 15 years! I suggest a thorough clutch bleed with vacuum assist. I don't use any sort of hi-temp fluid for that. Keep those exhaust heat...

    Intermittent whirring sound

    Is it a bearing on your serpentine drive going bad, or is it your blower motor bushings for the A/C?

    Loose harmonic balancer AND crank pulley

    I measured my IPSCO pulley last night and its pilot hole is 2.5" ID. It's been off for a few months waiting on my engine rebuild.

    Loose harmonic balancer AND crank pulley

    The projection is also called a centering register, or pilot. It's purpose is to keep the pulley true with the crank axis. The bolts resist the loading caused by the accessories being driven off the crank. The aluminum IPSCO mounting surface is noticeably thicker than the OE steel piece, but...

    Want to ID this brake duct part that was vendor made

    Dilusi Motorsports used to sell a bracket set along with the L/R 911 deflectors. This is what they look like installed. FYI - they can be installed below, or above the wishbone. And you can flip the deflectors L/R. I currently run mine on top the wishbones with the long flat facing forward and...

    Loose harmonic balancer AND crank pulley

    When you're ready to install the ARP crank bolt, I would suggest only coat the underside of the bolt head with their lube and not put lube on the damper side of the washer. You want the washer to stay put and reduce the friction under the bolt head. Then put blue loctite 242/3 on the threads and...

    Want to used tires for 1998 RT10

    I have a set of 17" PS2's that have good tread depth. I've street driven them over the last 5 years. I also make a practice of doing 1-2 sessions at track days on street tires so I know where their limits are. I have no idea what your purpose is with them, or whether a tire shop will mount them...

    Negative battery cable disconnect

    FYI - every time you kill power to the ECU, it will wipe your long-term fuel adaptive blocks. It may also wipe your IAC (Idle Air Controller) stepper motor calibrations. That's why most folks will connect a battery tender. Me? I've never done either. In Texas, I'll let my car sit in the garage...

    P2104 Forced Idle After PCM Swap

    Your ODO and PCM mileage will vary slightly. They are more of a reality check between the two.

    6 cylinder Viper

    Koni ACR shocks leak less than the Dynamics that superseded them in mid-'00. As a matter of fact, I'm having a set freshened just up the road, dropping off tomorrow. I've not had any particular trouble finding 18's for my Viper, and even 17's are available if you know where to shop. On most...

    PO441 Pending & PO443 Codes

    My car developed a high tank pressure issue. Turns out the purge solenoid was packed with carbon granules from the canister under the headlamp. That's unlikely on the 00+ with the canister behind the passenger rear.

    6 cylinder Viper

    He was looking for Unitrax half shafts in a hurry for the build. He was trying to talk me into pulling the ones out of my racecar for his deal - said he would even ship his stockers to me plus cash. Glad i didn't bite on that deal. What a waste.

    Sourcing Obsolete Parts For Gen I and Gen II Vipers

    There was a very good thread about the gauge and sender from years back. One of the two, or possibly the combination are very heavily dampened. That makes for a slow response time to critical fluctuations in pressure readings.

    Right. You are just masking the symptoms of a deeper problem that will fail your car at emissions check.

    Experience on door sag/hang up on GTS

    Experience on door sag/hang up on GTS

    This thread could use resurrection and more input, so I'll start with my perspective: I've experienced "door sag" on my GTS. I removed the interior panel and adjusted the hinge and striker to where the gaps are absolutely PERFECT and the gasket bulb tension is PERFECT. The doors will 'pop' at...
