Thought it might be fun to start a thread sharing what we’re doing to our beloved Vipers
Today I installed a skip shift eliminator and cleaned the under carriage a bit. Couple days ago I installed a new OEM power steering pump with a new OEM reservoir..also a new high pressure hose. I’ll tell you what the Quickjack 5000TL is a must have for these old cars..

After 24 years, the gas filler pipe n ipp le is starting to separate from the gas tank. The pipe n ipp le is glued onto the outside of the tank. It has a big flange of sorts right where it glues to the outside of the tank. Oddly, the filler neck enters the tank half-way down the height of the tank, on the tank's side. So with anything over half a tank, the gas starts leaking from where the n ipp le is glued to the outside of the tank. No new gas tanks are available, and any used tanks are also about the same age and have or will have the same problem. So I'm researching the best glues for HDPE plastics, and gasoline rated sealants. Gonna try and re-glue the n ipp le to the tank. Worst ca$e, is to have a new tank made.

Vic- I see in your sig that you did a lightweight flywheel. Was that a noticeable difference? Been thinking of doing the same.

Saturday, I cleaned the transmission tunnel and rear subframe/diff/seatback partition area on the lift. The engine is out for a hone and rings and the trans came out with it. Some nights this week, I'll detail the engine compartment and suspension links. Rear shocks are coming out for new shaft seals, inspection and fresh oil.

Hmmm, well not so much today, but last week. BC coil overs, fluid changes and alignment. All to go to Tennessee for Dragon and other roads. So far, other then it being a bit to low, freaking loving it! First time I've been able to push it a bit and damn, if they don't have some grip!!

Turned the key, drove around town, got to floor it a couple of times, parked her back in her spot in the shed.
It's not every day that running errands around town gives me that big a smile!
