    2002 RT10 parts for sale

    Why don't these parts go with the car? Or, is it totaled?

    Coolant in between intake runners

    Removing the wipers (flip covers & 2x13mm nuts) and cowl (4 phillips screws) will let you see and get to what's at the back of the engine,

    You are correct. Not easy to get to.

    1994 RT/10 Idler Pulley fail

    The OE bracket is die cast magnesium. As long as the attachment bolts to the heads, and to the steering pump are torqued properly, the OE brackets are lighter and fully up to the task. Your choice.

    Largest front tire width?

    I ran 315-35-17 Comp T/A R-1's on my '93 at the track. They really need to be on at least 11" rims. Wider than that, and depending on offset, they'll rub the swaybar at full lock. Even now, I run 315-18 square, or 315/335 at the track. Still roll on 275/335-17's for street.

    1997 Viper, 4th invitational “Snake Bite Kit” info request

    Drove it home from the oldest Dodge dealer in TX on 7/15/96. Going on 29 years with this one. I traded my '93 on it from the same dealer.

    05 SRT10 T56 to TR-6060 Trans swap what to expect

    I put a light flywheel on my car at about 17,000 miles. It helped my heel-toe downshifting quite a lot. I also noticed it to be much more sensitive in stop/go driving, particularly in freeway traffic because of less flywheel inertia. 25 years and 25k miles later, it doesn't bother me in the...

    DIY Catch Can Install

    ^correct^ That line keeps your crank case ventilated as the can outlet to manifold is providing the vacuum source for pulling fresh makeup air in. The can drops 95% of oil vapor out of the intake.

    1999 GTS - Exhaust Manifolds Glowing Red

    On a reflash, your adaptives are all zero'd out. They won't move appreciably without driving some miles unless something is seriously out of whack.

    1999 GTS - Exhaust Manifolds Glowing Red

    O2s are first check for proper function. Also check OBD tables for extreme adaptive trim settings. Maybe your mufflers are plugging up. Also keep in mind that the later Gen 2's came with thin-wall tubular steel headers instead of cast iron and it may not be uncommon for them to glow at idle. I...

    Help with Steering Crossmember Measurements

    I was all over and under my car today and remembered to check mine. I measured up to the bottom of the rear-most flange and it was right at 5 inches from the bottom of the square crossmember. The square had to lean slightly backwards at the bottom to touch both.

    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Aside from your 'chutes and rear NACA ducts, the bodywork is incredibly unassuming. Other than being a Viper, you could drive it anywhere and scarcely raise an eybrow.

    How to search engine history via VIN

    Possibly it went to Arrow/Prefix for a warranty exchange for the previous car and ended up in your car after re-man.

    Belanger header pickle removal help

    If you can get vise-grips or channel-locks around them, I would think they would snap loose at ambient easier than heated. Maybe a pipe, or socket on a 1/2" extension that matches the pickle OD would provide better leverage.

    How to search engine history via VIN

    Just your engine, or more generally? If it's yours, you should be able to go to a local dealer in your car, or with your license renewal / insurance card and have them search your VIN history for dealer visits/recalls.

    1996 GTS Information

    It should have 70mm throttle bodies. The oil pan and valve cover gaskets are reusable. Take one valve cover off (should have Venom Power milled into them) to see if it has roller rockers and have them pull the oil pan off and see if it has aftermarket con rods. It should have 5:1 headers and a...

    Help with Steering Crossmember Measurements

    I don't know the target measurement, but: If it is too high, or low, it will cause bump steer shimming to be outside the envelope. The shim stack under the rack is limited to a maximum of around 5/16" total under the rack bushing washers. It is important to have it equal across the lower frame...

    Viper Gen 2 GTS 1997 oem 17" high polished aluminum wheels

    I have a set from a '98. I run 17" PS2s on them for the street and regularly run a session or two at the track on them. No worries about the cracking failures associated with the cast/welded models.

    Actually, the '97 is more likely to be correct than the '96. That's always been my experience at the dealer's parts counter.
