    Sourcing Obsolete Parts For Gen I and Gen II Vipers

    I was told the rubber weatherstripping for the rear of the Gen II RT/10 hardtop is no longer available, and if it was that it would cost approximately $1200... about half of what the top cost when new. (My car was stored for about a year, when I removed the hardtop, the weatherstripping had...

    Do any Florida Vipers like road racing ?

    This one is less cool. :) http://www.mindmagma.com/spinout.05.2003.wmv This was my third lap ever at Sebring, trying to figure out the turn 2/3/4 section. If/when SAFE membership gets back to normal, I'm hoping we can talk Phil into considering some dates at Roebling Road in Savannah and...

    Do any Florida Vipers like road racing ?

    I hereby claim the right to be the most pissed. I got his power steering fluid all over my Viper. You can't beat SAFE for track time in Florida. http://www.mindmagma.com/viper/onelap.05.2003.wmv

    Do all roadsters leak?????

    My Gen II generally does not leak with either top. I drive in the heavy Florida rains on a regular basis with both tops. I have seen leaks twice, both while driving through hurricanes (once in south Fl with the soft top, and once in Louisiana with the hard top, a day after the hurricane hit last...

    How can you RT/10 guys stand "top-less" speeds over 120 mph?

    Re: How can you RT/10 guys stand 165 topless & windowless. No problems. Open exhaust, but impossible to hear it. Buffeting wasn't a problem, handling was no problem, but noise was indescribable. Actually it reminded me of watching the shuttle launch from 7-10 miles away.

    RT/10 Third Brake Light out...

    I can confirm what fearsuch said. Upon delivery mine had a single bulb out, and the others still worked. However, they replaced the whole light assembly (under warranty of course). Since it was my first visit to the dealer I wasn't yet "hooked up" with my Viper Tech so I didn't see if they had...

    Take the bolts for the jack and spare tire away?

    Just a thought for the people who are saying you should consult the manual -- large portions of the Viper manual are copied from the manuals for other Chrysler products. I don't remember the exact content, but I realized this after I got over my surprise from reading a discussion of a topic...

    Looking for custom oval exhaust tips

    Does anyone know where I might either find very large exhaust outlets (to use as tips), or know where I might be able to get something custom-made (stainless steel, rolled edge)? Partly for the sake of novelty, partly to get that asphalted-up trailer-hitch-looking crap off there, and partly to...

    This didn't happen to me last year.........Please help.

    Re: This didn\'t happen to me last year.........Please help. If it persists, I bet you can dial it out with a properly set VEC1. Getting my VEC1 set up right on a dyno eliminated the little sooty bits deposited on my back bumper, and stopped the extremely-rich conditions at WOT.

    2003 V10 install manual?

    I believe this link is for a Gen I / Gen II manual: http://vca2.viperclub.org/marketplace/vender.php?vender_id=278&cat_id=6 Is there a manual available yet for the Gen III engine? I'm told this crate motor install guide has a lot of measurements and dimensions which I'm sure will come in...

    SmarTire / V1 remote display mounting ideas?

    No. Did you bother to read my post? I e-mailed them awhile back and $9000 was what they quoted. Obviously they've come down if they have a lower price posted on their website. At the time there were no prices, it was strictly "call for pricing". Jesus, who crapped in your Wheaties?

    RT 10 Softop question

    I'm pretty sure mine are all the same, I just did an emergency roadside assembly of my soft top on Saturday... The bars down either side (where you hook in the bows) are straight, so if they're bowed the same, and I'm pretty sure they are, they have to be the same length.

    Track Day Drivers

    I'd rather see it as a website so that it doesn't go out of date. (There are several websites which purport to list "all" of the tracks in the US, but the ones I've found are all very incomplete.)

    SmarTire / V1 remote display mounting ideas?

    Er, have any of you looked at the pricing on the V1 mirror thing? They're like $9000. Seriously. About two years ago I wrote them and asked.

    Viper owner near Phoenix

    It was just the engine and tranny. I made a different deal elsewhere, but thanks anyway to Marv, I talked to the tech you recommended and he was quite receptive and friendly (and was familiar with the car that the original engine came from).

    Owner's Manual and Gas Light

    Re: Owner\'s Manual and Gas Light http://www.techauthority.daimlerchrysler.com No warning light, and I believe most people find it has very little "reserve" (E really means empty).

    Making 70MM TB's from the stock ones.

    Re: Making 70MM TB\'s from the stock ones. As Gavin says, definitely check with Sean. I just posted to you in the Alley, if I remember correctly back when Sean was in the earlier phases of his SC project I think he mentioned to me that he tested larger TBs and they didn't make any difference.

    Viper owner near Phoenix

    Thanks. Marv was already kind enough to PM me with the name of a good tech in the area. Unfortunately it looks like I got screwed out of my engine deal. (I was a little suspicious of the seller anyway.)

    Viper owner near Phoenix

    I'm looking for a Viper owner in or near Phoenix to check out an engine I'm thinking about buying -- basically make sure it isn't damaged or banged up, and verify that it will start. Any help would be appreciated, please PM me. Thanks!

    Has anyone produced an alternative to the soft top?

    The thing Max was working on sounded nice -- a collapsible aluminum frame. I was watching a movie the other day and noticed a guy removing the top from his Ferrari one-handed... I assume it was carbon fiber, but either way, you certainly aren't going to do that with the Viper toupee. (Ok, some...

    As far as I know, only the engine is for sale, but I will send him your e-mail address just in case.
