    Engine Problems (1997 GTS)

    A compression test has revealed that my engine has bad compression in cylinder no. 8 ( only 90 psi). However, all other cylinders got around 160. My mechanic told me that some oil was present on the new spark plug. Is it necessary to perform a leak down test? What do you think could cause this...

    Viper Coffee Table (For Sale)

    Ok, It seems that some of you like the table but not the price. I mean, I am a reasonable person, I am open to a REASONABLE offer (not $50!!). However, I think that you all agree that this "table" cannot cost less than US$400 ... this is the price of the tire alone. By the way, the tire size...

    Motul Fluids

    But Mobil-1 is not a real synthetic oil anymore. Do you think that using a real synthetic oil (with the Mopar filter) will be harmful for the engine?

    Stoptech Brakes, which pads?

    HAWK HP PLUS is an excellent choice for heavy street use or for "track days" but are really noisy and dusty. Get them on Tirerack.com!

    Viper Crash Test

    Do you know where I can get some info regarding crash tests performed on Vipers? My understanding is that neither the NHTSA nor the IIHS have ever tested the Viper! Thank you!

    Which camshaft do you recommend for a 1997 GTS? http://www.crower.com/cat/domestic/chrysler/viper_camshafts.shtml Also, do you know if the Crower Rocker is better than the Mopar. The price seems quite good. Is there any recommendation if I do both mods? Thank you!

    Drag racing/tips and techniques

    1.8 is possible on street tires. Just lower the rear tire pressure to 20 psi. Shift until 4th gear @ 5,500rpm maximum. Rev the engine between 1,500 and 3,000rpm and feather the throttle in 1st while you're slipping the clutch at the same time. High 11s @ 118-119mph is your ultimate goal with a...
