So even when I bought my car 11 years ago, I did go and perform a slight adjustment. fairly simple to do, all I did was use a jack and made sure I marked whatever shims were removed.
Do you get any grinding going into gears especially when cold?
Does kind of sound like the clutch isn't full disengaging.
Have you tried to bleed the Clutch?
In order for someone to buy the car, they are someone who can look past a Salvaged title. Depending on how low the price is, that Audience will grow or shrink..
Good luck with the Sale.
PS, I agree, ditch the door stripes if you can!
So I use Wix and Mobil 1. the Mobil 1 M1-204 has roughly the same Bypass Valve Value. The Viper Filters are a complete ripoff in my opinion. And, according to Dan, he doesn't like what he see's inside when he opens up a Viper Filter...
This is because the Viper Motor is so overbuilt (as Dick Winkle stated in the round table) like I mentioned above a couple times.
This is great for Viper owners...
Heavier forged pistons do reduce rotational speed capability because they increase reciprocating mass, stress, and inertia but for the Viper's V10, the strength benefits of Forged far outweigh the RPM penalty, because the engine is not designed to rev high.
Even if you dont boost, you can still...
So I agree with the above posts, well written...
Depending on what you are trying to Achieve, Boost, Stock etc... you choose the components that suitable for the build especially if it can save you $$$$.
Forged components (ie: pistons) can take a beating especially when you get to high RPM's...
So I think you are right, Cast tops have Slightly different dish geometry and Thinner crown? and Forged has More machining marks (visible swirl or cross‑hatch patterns) and Thicker Crown? not 100% sure though
Hey Mark, its been a while. Nice to see you again!
Check the piston crown for markings
Factory cast pistons typically have:
Mopar part numbers
Casting numbers
Small raised identifiers
For Forged there are Deeply engraved part numbers:
Not raised. Not cast in.
Engraved with a CNC machine...
Ya they switched for Emissions, Cast is cheaper to make and NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness)
Forged did return in the Gen 5's however (less Pistons unlike the 96 to 99 where its fully forged) because of the HP increase and Dodge felt because of this, they needed it built stronger to...
