    Need to find the weatherstripping that goes behind the windows....

    Is there some reason why some enterprising viper owner can't have a replacement weatherstripping made for this? Hopefully correcting the original problem that causes the weatherstripping to come apart. Just a thought.

    NE Ohio Guys Klaben in Kent?

    I have had Kevin work on my Viper seaveral times and he always does good work. He does what he is supposed to do and does it right the first time. Klaben takes good care of your Viper when it is there. It is kept inside. Having said that if I have the recall done on my Viper I would think...

    short throw shifter??

    Archer has a Hurst shifter, which is apparently the same as on the Competition Coupe. Does anyone have experience with it. I wonder if it is better than the B&M or MGW?

    Anyone use Rich's shifter rod

    Re: Anyone use Rich\'s shifter rod To shift the subject slightly, in a recent topic I noticed that someone mentioned upgrading with the shifter from the Competition Coupe. Does anyone have any details on that as far as performance or cost. As I recall it is available from Archer.

    Hi flow cat question

    When I bought my GTS it had no cats. Sounded great, ran great and it had no gasoline smell, although some have reported that and had to install O2 simulators to correct the problem. I installed Random ceramic high flows and it still sounds good, but not quite as loud as with no cats. I have...

    Stock heat shields on Edlebrock headers?

    I also have Edelbrock headers without heat shields. I will probably get the Edelbrock shields although it has not been a problem thus far. The Edelbrock shields look pretty good.

    How to keep the snake from scraping bottom

    Try the Sean Roe fix for this problem. It works pretty well for me. Sean Roe has several adhesive backed plastic bars which take the brunt of any scraping rather than the nose.

    Budget Exhaust

    If you search this forum you will find this has been discussed in many previous posts. If you like it loud, consider replacing the resonators (the round mufflers behind the cats) with straight pipes. If you like it a little louder many people have gone the X pipe route and been satisfied...

    Dyno results: High-flow cats from PartsRack

    How much does the year matter in results? I assume you are comparing the 96 - 99 with the 2000 - 2002 cam differences? or does the cast iron vs 98 on header manifold make a difference as well?

    Any tips on removing GTS aluminum gas cap?

    You can pull the filler neck out far enough to remove the hose from the fuel tank.

    Calling Viper Owners in Dallas with Random Tech CATS

    Using Random Tech high flow ceramic type cats on 97 GTS, I passed echeck in Ohio with very low numbers, much lower than the limits. HC tested 2.6PPM limit 220PPM. CO tested at 0,0 limit 1.2 You should have no problem passing the test whether Viper friendly or not. Warranty to pass is for 2...

    Exhaust Help?

    Popular exhausts are Corsa, Mopar (Borla I think but with tips having an etched viper logo, belanger (louder), snake Oyl, random tech.... There may be some others from tuners. High Flow cats or no cats is recommended no matter what you do, for a little HP but much heat reduction in the sills...

    Who makes the best Headers for the Viper ??

    I think the Edelbrock is an older design header which produces pretty good midrange performance, but a little less max HP than some of the more recent design headers. Sounds very good particularly if cats are removed. Quality is very good. Should consider if you need to maintain emissions on...

    Ebay + A boatload of Vipers = crappy resale value?

    I purchased my Viper in a no reserve auction on Ebay a little over a year ago. I watched Viper auctions for several months before buying and at that time about 75% of the Viper auctions failed to meet the reserve. For many auctions, the completed item prices on Ebay do not reflect actual...

    Need help with two things!!!!!!

    A few thoughts. I would check the VIN on the car versus the title. I am sure a GTS VIN has a little different code than an RT. Your dealer or someone here should be able to help. Does the seller have any documented history such as window sticker or purchase agreement from dealer. Have your...

    1st-2nd shift issue

    This may be the shift lockout. Look to see if the white arrow is lit up when you experience this problem. It forces a shift to fourth rather than second below a certain RPM (1500 - 1800??? not sure). If that is the problem see the upgrades on this website. There is a fix, or you can just...

    Help! I'm a novice - Are there any peculiar problems in buying a '97 RT/10?

    Re: Help! I\'m a novice - Are there any peculiar problems in buying a \'97 RT The newer the Viper the better, but Vipers are very reliable. That does not mean they do not have a few quirks, but they are an awesome car. If you have driven one you know that already. Take a look at the features...
