2001 VIPER QUESTION

[weed43]

I AM A FIRST TIME OWNER OF A VIPER. QUESTION, IT SEAMS TO HAVE A ROUGH IDLE, BUT THE CAR IS RUNNING ON ALL 10 CLS, IS THIS IDLE DO TO A PROFORMANCE CAM THAT VIPER CALLS STOCK. ALSO I HERE VALVE TRAIN NOISE, NOT ONE VALVE BUT ALL THE VALVES, IT IS NOT A LOUD NOISE BUT SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE SET UP WITH ADJUSTABLE TAPPETS INSTEAD OF HYD LIFTERS. I HAVE NOTHING TO COMPAIR THE CAR WITH SINCE THERE ARE NO OTHER VIPERS AROUND, I DO KNOW THE CAR WILL PUT A BIG SMILE ON YOU FACE WHEN UNDER FULL THROTTEL.

I dont know about the stock cam which you call a performance cam. But its normal for you to hear the valve train, I have a 2000 and hear the same noise.
