    Rear end alignment - New rear end

    If i picked up an extra rear end assembly with a different gear set, would I need to re-align the rear tires everytime I switched? Or could this be a simple switch? Also, are all years interchangeable?

    Hood jammed

    As it sounds, the hood is jammed in the first position after you pull the handle to release and the hood is opened ~2". It is jammed and I'm afraid to put too much pressure to move it. What do I do?

    Bent rim!!!!

    Went to get my new PS2's mounted on my stock '96 rims and found out they were out of round enough that the road force balancers was unable to balance the tire. The guy said they would need 60lbs of weight on one side to balance it. The rim is out of round in both directions and my question to...

    PCM tuning

    What would a PCM for a '96 GTS run me? New or used. Are they hard to find? Looking to get West coast viper to tune one, but don't want to use my original one and would like to be able to change to OEM stock someday.

    Belanger header install

    Ok, before everyone tells me to do a search, I already have. Extensively. I read a bit about some problems installing the upstream O2 sensors, mainly not having enough length to work with. My question is, am I going to run into any unexpectd problems when trying to put them in the headers...

    Upstream O2 Sensor replacement

    About to put in a new set of headers (Belanger) and was wondering if it's worth replacing ther O2 sensors that are in the headers. I'm most worried about damaging them trying to get them out. They have 12k miles on them. Should I do it or not?

    Comp Coupe vs. 2000 Mustang Cobra R

    Thought I would post here to get more responses A budy of mine, who is a huge Mustang fan, and myself got into a "heated" discussion of how a Cobra R would do against a Comp Coupe on ANY track. He insisted that with equal tire (i.e. slicks) that a Cobra R would be more than a handful for a...

    Viper tuner in Michigan

    Who are some good, reliable viper tuners/mechanics in Michigan? I'm looking at getting some headers put on with the possibility of getting a tune and some other work done. I have heard of a few header fit issues that I really don't want to deal with. I could still probably do it myself, but...

    17's >>>>18's

    17\'s >>>>18\'s Probably a real simple question, but I'm looking at getting a set of OEM 18" w/335/30/18 viper rims from a later gen II and was wondering if they are a direct replacement and will not require a speedo recalibration. I did aquick diameter calculation and the 18's come out to be...

    Broken Headlight switch....need help

    So I went to turn my headlights off the other day, which went fine other than the fact that my headlights stayed on. Only my headlights stayed on, not the running lights, rear lights, or interior dash lights, just the low beam head lights. After playing with the switch for like a half hour, I...

    Hurst in '96 GTS (pics)

    Hurst in \'96 GTS (pics) I see there has been a few threads on the Hurst shifter, so I will chime in on my experience. Wow, what a difference over the stock shifter. Every shift is very crisp and solid with no worry about the dangerous 2-3 shift. There is absolutely no free play compared to the...

    Fuel system cleaner

    Probably a dumb question, but waht are everyones thoughts of adding complete fuel system cleaner to the viper before I take it out? Is it safe to use it, or will it damage the 02 sensors and cats? If it is safe, what is everyone using?

    Mismatching tires

    Looking at new set of tires for the viper and was wondering about anyones thoughts on mismatching tires. I would really like to get the Kumho V700 for the rear but would like to avoid sandblasting the front sills if possible and get a front tire that will minimize this but still provides grip...

    Waking up the snake

    It's getting about that time of year again and I wondering what is the best way to get everything fired up without hurting the engine? My car has not been started in 3-4 months.

    '03/'04 Cobra.........What outcome?

    \'03/\'04 Cobra.........What outcome? I have been surfing some of the other car forums the past few weeks (mainly SVT Cobra sites) and found an alarming pattern in these posts that tell tales of how they "walked" a Viper no problem from a dig or from any speed. Now I know that the '03/'04...

    Aftermarket engine controllers

    Looking to mod the old b/w gts a little more and was looking into adding some type of engine controller. Who are some good manufacturers of these. Does Mopar make anything like this and if so, what kind of gains can I expect. I want to add as much power as possible, but really want to...

    Rear valance damage around exhaust tips

    I have recently installed the 3" corsa exhaust and was wondering if the rear valance can be damaged by the 4" tips being so hot? It already appears to be warping a little when it is hot. If damage can be done, how can I prevent/slow it?

    Crankshaft Pin Tool

    I seem to be reading more and more about people spinning the hub bolt out and doing serious damage to their engines. Would the pin tool that Sean Roe sells be a good fix, or can you just make sure the bolts are tightened correctly. I am going to be performing prevenitive maintenance soon and was...

    Clutch pedal ignition problem

    When I go to start my '96 gts, it feels like I have to push the clutch pedal through the floor to start the car. Could there be some type of problem with the safety system, or is this just a side effect of putting the pedals all the way back?

    Driver Side Window Won't Go Down

    Driver Side Window Won\'t Go Down The driver side window will only go down about one inch and then sounds like it "hits" something in the door. The motor seems to work fine, but something inside of the door seems to be getting in the way. If I need to take the door apart, is there a special way...
