    Camshaft Question

    Hey all, this has probably been posted here many times but I can't locate the answer anyplace with the search function here. I know the '96 and '97's had a different camshaft...can anyone tell me the lift/duration of the lumpy cams? Thanks all... Mike

    A New Breed Of Viper...

    I have a '97 blue/white GTS that I love, but I also love to ride my 385HP Chevy powered V8 Boss Hoss motorcycle. We have a new friend on the Boss Hoss forum, that I think has came up with one of the most awesome bikes I have ever saw...our beloved Viper V10 on a RIDEABLE motorcycle, not some...

    Ok Guys..Check Engine Light Question

    My '97 GTS has 21,000 miles, and the only thing I have done recently is removed the cats, resonators and muffler, and replaced them with a set of glasspacks. This evening (after about 100 miles since the cat delete), the check engine light came on. I am a former Vette guy (please forgive me...

    Question About Heater Vents

    OK...I finally had to try out the heat in my '97 GTS this evening. I turned the temp control all the way to the right (hot), and turned the fan to high, turned the position control knob to blow out the front vents, and all I get is cold air. The air is good and warm as long as it is on defrost...

    Removed cats and resonators...

    I removed the cats and resonators from my '97, and also removed the muffler. The idle sounded perfect with straight through pipes, but upon acceleration it sounded like a rice burner... :rolleyes: I welded in 2 shortie glasspacks under the side sills, which tone down the noise a bit, but I am...

    Speaking Of GTS Gas Caps...

    On my '97, the worst part of the lid assembly is the part that snaps over the lip of the cap. It has quite a bit of oxidation, and doesn't look nearly as good as I wish it did. I am thinking of removing it, sanding it down, polishing the assembly, and clearcoating it. Has anyone did this, or is...

    What size is a stock '97 exhaust pipe?

    What size is a stock \'97 exhaust pipe? I am planning on modifying my exhaust system next week on my B/W '97, and I am needing to know the stock size pipes that are used. I am planning on a cat delete, and need to know the size of the inlet/outlet from the factory. Thanks all, Mike

    To Remove Cats Or Not Remove Them...

    I have heard conflicting reports on converter removal on a '97. I would like to remove them, and also remove the resonators, replace with a straight pipe, and leave the rear muffler as it is. But some tell me that I might get a code thrown on a '97, due to the rear O2 sensors. If this is so...

    Idle Speed On '97?

    Idle Speed On \'97? Can someone tell me what the idle speed should be on my '97 GTS? After it is up to normal operating temp., she idles about 450 RPM's, according to the instrumentation. I know the cam is lopey (I like) in the '97's, but this 450 RPM seems awfully low, or is it about right...

    Another Simple Question From A New Owner

    Hey again, I don't have an owners manual (yet)on my '97 GTS, and I see that under the seat on the right side of each seat, what looks like a pressure release for possibly a lumbar support? But I haven't saw a place to pump up the pressure. I know this seems like a stupid question, but is there a...

    Floor Mats

    The '97 I purchased did not have any floor mats included. Could anyone give me any info on the best place to purchase a set of the original mats? Thanks.. Mike :2tu:

    One more question

    What kind of coolant is used on the '97.? I assume the brown/red type as is used in the newer cars? Where do I check the level at? (New owner here with no owners manual yet). Where do you add the coolant? Thanks all. I am running at the mark just before the 250 degrees (3/4 of the gauge) in...

    OK...Can anyone tell me how difficult this is?

    Ok, I have had the '97 B/W for less than a week, and I want those cats off! Can anyone let me know how difficult it is to remove the sill panels, to access the cats? I really appreciate it! (Geesh...didn't take long for me to start asking modding questions... :headbang: )
