    Solutions for Rear Tires Rubbing Fenders?

    Originally put the Eibach lowering springs on my 02 RT10 with low profile "25" series tires (PRosso 355/25-19s) and had no fender rub with my 19" CCW wheels. The CCWs have additional outboard displacement. The "25" series tires are no longer made and I had to go with a "30" series...

    Engine Light Code P 1391- Cam or Crank Position

    Just got a P 1391 code today after driving my 02 RT. A couple of months ago I had heads and cam installed. Reused the position sensors and used a Cloyes assembly. However, in doing a search I noticed a few years ago that Greg B got the code just after washing his car, and apparently got water in...

    Mopar Shaft Mounted Rockers ?

    Does anyone know anything about the Mopar shaft mounted rockers? I found them on Viper Parts of America, and they appear to be alternative to the T&Ds and Jesels. Wonder who makes them for Mopar? They are priced similarly to the T&Ds which will not be available until mid-January. Not sure if...

    Best Practice for Installing Cam

    Any thoughts on the best practice for instralling a cam in an 02 RT? I've heard of removing the entire engine, disconnecting the trans mount and tilting the engine upward, etc. What is the safest, easiest, and most reliable way to do this? Thanks.

    I'm wondering what others have experienced with air restriction on the OEM NACA port with the stock intake box. I have the stock system with K&N's and smooth tubes. How beneficial in hp gains is it to go with an aftermarket system that draws air from under the hood with a heads and cam mod...

    Shaft Mounted Rockers or Not?

    I'm doing greg good heads and cam with headers and catback on an 02 rt. I'm expecting upper 500 hp at the wheels. Would non-shaft 1,7 rockers such a harland sharp be sufficient or should I go with the shaft mounted T&Ds? Any thoughts or experience would be appreciated.

    Friend Rolls His RT/10 Twice Over Embankment

    My friend called me to tell me that he rolled his 2000 RT twice on wet pavement. The hard top was on and did not come off, but the front windshield structure completely collapsed. They had to cut him out of the car. The interesting thing is that he said the roll bar saved him, as it did not...

    708 Cam Install Question

    Anyone install a 708 cam on a 00, 01, or 02 and retained the "stock" lifters? Any issues or comments? Would the idle be not as rough with the stock lifters? I'd like to get the idle sound of my 97 in my 02 without changing the lifters. Thanks.

    Anyone have experience or information on using a 275/35x19 Pilot Sport on the front of an Eibach lowered GenII? The diameter is 26.5" versus the stock 25.7", and the car is lowered. I was told there is a possibility for interference. Thanks.

    Alarm System Slow When Car is Hot

    When my 02 RT is hot, the alarm is difficult to activate and the horn sounds weak. I have to get very close to the car to activate and may need several attempts. Likewise to disarm.

    97 GTS Vs. 02 RT/10

    I would like to have some opinions on the following: 1) I had a 97 GTS with just a 3" catback and no cats. 2) I now have an 02 RT with high flow cats and stock exhaust system. Not much difference between the two.......the 97 had more cam duration overlap, but basically the two engines should...

    Eibach Spring Problems?

    Today I took my Cobra to Steeda in Pompano Beach to check the front wheel alignment. They aligned my car after I lowered it with the Eibach Pro kit about one year ago. Last week, I noticed that the passenger front tire was wearing poorly on the inside. The conclusion was that the springs...
