    New Viper owner, some concerns after fresh maintenance items…

    sounds like the mixture is way off, like others have said...maybe a wire isnt connected right or not at all or is bad. After that...maybe a clogged cat.

    96 GTS recommendations for resonators

    I had 3" HFCs (belanger that are inside the frame) and 3" corsa cat back and it was too loud for me. So I added these between the two. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0038HOGMA?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_3 Sound was perfect afterwards, still loud, way more refined.

    Radiator leak

    recore it if you have someone who can do it or the time to get it done. I went with aluminum bc I got frustrated trying to find a shop to recore it.

    Value Opinion? 2001 GTS (Rebuilt Title), 13000 miles

    if it was a clean title, no accident...everything perfect as it should be. 70-80k range Since its rebuilt title figure 70% of that if it's perfect.

    Oil Filter Recommendations

    Gotcha...but that's just at peak pressure. The flow and pressures will vary up until that point is reached. But yes, it's the overall system that also determines pressure, etc... There's a lot to oil beyond temp, pressure, flow....it's a crazy science. Every variable is a trade off.

    Oil Filter Recommendations

    I'm not sure what you mean by all hot oils flow the same. If that were the case then it wouldnt matter if you ran 10w-20 or 10w-60...you're saying they all flow the same rate and pressure? Pretty sure this is definitely not the case. a 0w-40 and a 10w-40 should theoretically flow the same...

    childhood dream - '96 GTS.. with some issues?

    order everything from the US. Jon B @ viperpartsrack or Nick Reid @ Reid Performance or Havik or P1...etc... Shipping will be worth it. Especially on smaller items. The parts arent bad, the labor is intensive.

    this. Either RTV or gasket. I never get why people use both. Both work better alone imo

    you dont need a lift for the rack bushings. you can do it with jackstands pretty easy. Idler, pulleys and belts are so cheap I'd replace them unless you know for sure they are relatively new. But that's just me.

    and also your steering rack bushings...can upgrade to billet.

    There's no need. Its a good time to do your belts and pulleys though if you havent yet.

    Please listen to him. On all of this No one has issues running typical coolant for 30+ years and 100k miles. The "corrosion" issue is not an issue. You're going to be removing hoses and what not anyway, just go with the standard.
