    Road & Track Article Z/28 vs.the World (Including Viper TA)

    This article is in the July 2014 issue. As usual, the Viper completely kicks the others butts on the track and earns disparaging remarks and backhanded compliments. The new Z/28 gets all of this gushing praise in the press. While I am happy for the Camaro, I just wish that more writers and...

    Made the Leap to a Gen V took it to the track

    Made the Leap to a Gen V and took it to the track I don't know what to say without writing a book. The Gen V fully lives up to all of my expectations! I have owned a '99 Gen II RT/10 since 2002. I still love the lines of the Gen II and was so happy to see the Gen V come out as an evolution...

    Gen IV cam specs

    I apologize if this is covered elsewhere. I did a quick search but didn't see it. I posted this question in the SRT-10 section and got no replies. What are the Gen IV cam specifications in both the idle position and in the wide open throttle max horsepower position? How do those...

    Gen IV cam specs

    I apologize if this is covered elsewhere. I did a quick search but didn't see it. What are the Gen IV cam specifications in both the idle position and in the wide open throttle max horsepower position? How do those specifications compare to the specs of a early Gen II (pre-creampuff)...

    Viper Service near Pittsburgh, PA?

    I recently moved from IL to PA. I need to have the slave cylinder on my '99 RT/10 replaced. Who is a good person / dealer to take it to for this in the Pittsburgh, PA region? On a side note, any ideas on how to get it there? The clutch won't work at all and I doubt that most towing services...

    Clutch won't disengage

    I was just driving the car back into the garage yesterday. I had the clutch depressed and rev'd the engine, just before pulling the car in, to help get any water out of the tail pipes (I had just finished washing the car in the driveway). All of a sudden (with my foot still on the clutch), the...

    Toyo R1 Proxies dropped my 1/4 time by .3

    Ran my '99 RT/10 at Cordova, IL last night. Last fall I ran at the same track and the best that I could manage was a 12.2. Last night I hit 11.908 @ 118+ My best previous time ever was at Route 66 and ran a 12.02 @ 118+ The 11.9 was my first launch ever on the Toyo's. I had them installed...

    Alignment near Chicago

    Anyone know a good alignment shop near Chicago, preferably near Oak Park area? I tried taking my Viper for an alignment at the Dodge dealer in Forest Park, and they could not get it on their rack. They tried the Chevy dealer next door, same problem. Said it was too low (stock height) to drive...

    One for the Ford guys. I got beat by an '04 Cobra

    One for the Ford guys. I got beat by an \'04 Cobra I was at Rt41 Dragway Friday night just for fun. I was hoping to break into the 11's for the first time (previous best of 12.02 at 118 w / 1.7 60 ft). No such luck. The track was very slippery. The right lane was terrible due the previous...

    Baseline 1/4 Mile Results - 1999 RT/10

    Ceramic Brake Rotors and or pads?

    Porsche has Ceramic rotors as an option on the stock GT2. Also in an old Car and Driver that was doing a shoot out, I noticed that the Lingenfelter Corvette had Ceramic pads. Does anyone make Ceramic rotors and or pads for the Viper? If so, how much do they cost? How much weight do they...

    All the talk about Cams

    I hear a lot of folks talk about year X cam is better that than year Y cam and so on and so on. I would like to get the record straight. Is the chart on this board correct or not? http://www.viperclub.org/menus/index_ivr.htm If it is correct then everything about all GEN II cams is the same...

    B&B Complete Exhaust

    I am considering the B&B complete exhaust. 1 3/4" headers 3" cats and cat back, including X pipe rear section (can order the cats prewelded to the cat back from B&B) What kind of power should this make? How loud is it going to be compared to other systems and stock? My experience so...

    Dyno Advice

    I will be attending an Illinois VCA Dyno Day next Saturday and I was hoping to get some advice on how to dyno. It seems to me that there is a large variation in what I see folks post for STOCK dyno numbers. For a stock GEN II car I have seen numbers ranging from about 383 RWHP to about 422...

    Mothballs

    I have read that mothballs in a closet will cost the foam padding in a helmet to deteriorate, just from the fumes. Not sure how true it is and have never experimented. Will mothball fumes, say from mothballs on a garage floor hurt a Viper's body?

    Bought a Viper

    I took the plunge and bought a '99 Black / Cognac RT/10! I have dreamed of owning a car like this for a very long time, and still can't believe I now own one. Probably not the smartest financial decision I have ever made, but sometimes as Tom Cruise put it in Risky Business, "Sometimes you...
