I just wanted to let everyone know that we just launched our new Message Board late last night. It's still a bit rough around the edges, as the new server is still being "dialed in". Hopefully it will be at 100% within the next day or so.
Please read the sticky in the News and Announcements...
I am a little pi$$ed off right now. An 18 yr old on drugs (literally) hit my car while it was parked in front of my shop. They gave him a sobriety test, he failed and was arrested. Fortunately, he had insurance.
The hood was damaged over the front wheel. The fibers are hanging out all along...
Didn't get to run at a 1/4 track this weekend, but I did get to put the car on the 1/8. It wasn't my best 1/8 ET (stock clutch still slipping quite a bit), but it was consistently running my best mph ever.
60ft 1.71
330ft 4.74
1/8ET 7.24
1/8mph 102.94
My previous best 1/8 was a...
I just got back and I'm also tired. Gonna make this quick:
Met Tom Welch, Jack B, and Mike (the C4 V6 Turbo Vette guy). All REALLY great guys! We had a great time, despite the "small" turnout (and the track soy burger...Tom's wife Robin knows what I'm talking about).
Tom met the C4 today...
Hooker Headers vs \'98 Manifolds...Dyno Results Within...
We installed the Hooker 1 3/4" headers today, and as promised, I am posting my results.
Installation:
Straight forward. Driver side O2 in wrong location. We had to "clearance" the frame a little. No big deal, but took an extra 1/2 hour...
11.18 @ 125...Ported Heads, Stock Cam, Drag Radials...how\'s it compare?
I finally got to make some passes this weekend on Nitto Drag Radials (315/35/17's) in my '98 GTS. Other than spinning pretty bad on the 1-2 shift, I was pretty impressed. I was just curious how my times compared to those...

I took my first trip to the track tonight with the car. The clutch was still slipping noticeably...worse on the launch than on the shifts. But I managed a best of this:
60ft 1.74
1/8 7.41
mph 96.34
This was on stock Michelin's and a full tank of gas. Just curious how these numbers...
\'98 GTS Ported Heads & Exhaust Dyno Results
Well, unfortunately, I didn't get an opportunity to do a basline dyno stock. So all I can do is guess at what kind of gains I got.
I'm not sure if these are impressive numbers or not. I will say that I'm pretty sure it could dyno more, but I was...
I seem to be having a hard time finding anyone who really knows about the Viper valve springs. Including Comp Cams. With ported heads and T&D 1.7 rockers, I feel like a little more valve spring pressure is in order. I found the stock springs to be about 100lbs. Seemes really low for a Hyd...
\'98 GTS - New Owner, Weird Problem, Head Gasket or Not?
I just picked up a '98 GTS two days ago from a guy in Chicago. Drove it home (300 miles) and no problems at all. Yesterday, drove it to work, and got on it a couple of times. Shifted at 5500, ran it up to about 100mph, that was it. Pulled...
