Hi Everyone,
With no Gen 1 fuel pump modules, fuel regulators and sending units available. Would anyone be interested in a group buy of an aftermarket module that would not only be more reliable but would support much more power?
It all depends on your year model and the set you have. There are 5 differing types depending on the application. Gen 1-2 you MAY need to machine the rocker stands, modify the valve covers, get new pushrods or just bolt them on. Gen 3 you will need to get valve cover spacers and new pushrods...
FYI,
A few years back I was racing at Willow Springs. We stayed at the track in the transporter, working on a car we had to have ready in the morning. I left 4 new Hoosier R6's outside that night so I could sleep in the back of the semi. It got down to about 20 degrees that night. Next day when...
I posted this some time ago and its kind of interesting. We had a 2010 ACR racer with full header system that wanted to go to Laguna Seca to run, but noise is a big issue there. We installed the crossover system off the 03-06 car on it hoping it would quiet it down, but figured it would suffer...
You want to make sure the left throttle body leads the right. Mopar sells a kit to lock the cables (just 2 screws). Gen 2 has a locked system with a single cable. No need to adjust that.
I will be doing a back to back G5 header test in 2 weeks. We did install a set of ARH headers and high flow cats on a 2013, car runs great, we will be testing that car as well.
I will also be testing a G5 with our new ported heads and Corsa exhaust, no headers. I will post up the results.
Sounds like you have cracked exhaust ports, that was an issue on the Gen 2 ported heads that had excessive core shift. I have had this repaired in the past without any issues.
Just a note, those Girodisc's are nice rotors. I used them on German cars with good success. They are $950- per axle $1900 a set. Partsrack can do better than that.
There is much to consider here. First off, standard one-part rotors are production stuff. Durable and well made (OE). If you want your brakes to have a little more bite and work better in really wet conditions, you can have them slotted. The slots get the pad heated quicker when cold and clean...
Re: Gen 4 & 5 Straight Line Performance from late 90s Viper without idle quality loss
Great Info Eric,
We always change to the later Gen 2 injectors and change the calibration for this combination on Gen 1's. Have you done this?
Gen 1 cars can perform like 4-5 cars at the dragstrip!
With modified cars an inspection is really the best way to go. You never know how it was put together. First see if you can get a build sheet for the motor. If the car seems sound and everything looks right. Spend a couple hundred dollars, have a leak down done on the motor, drop the pan and...
Boy there are many options and sound is very subjective. What one person likes another may dis-like. I have installed them all, happy to give an unsolicited opinion without a sales pitch.

Re: Paxton owners - GET RID OF YOUR FMU & SPLIT SECOND SETUP AS SOON AS HUMANLY POSSI
Great results, for those considering this, its all in the tuning. You will need someone like Tony or vendor here to get it right.
Flywheels are steel with an aluminum option (SFI). The Gen 4-5 clutch is modular with the friction plate built in, you use your stock flywheel but the clutch plate does contact it.
The 97 cars were great, strong motor, the lumpy cam, forged pistons and super for upgrades. The Viper kept getting more refined with each year, that gave each model it's personality. I had a 1996 GTS Vin #141, tell us about yours?
I have learned a lot over the last 20 years working with Viper clutches and have developed some really nice clutch options with McLeod Racing in the past few years. We now have dual disc clutches for all generations of Viper's 1992-2104.
These are not racing clutches, so they don't have the...
Hey Bob,
Have you ever had any issues with the traction control related to a weak or low battery? Has the system ever failed or needed parts replaced?
I had some issues and wondered if it was isolated or not. Mark Jorgenson was helpful when we had an issue.
This is a common issue, the front fascia, hood supports and headlights often become misaligned from hitting a speed bump or steep driveway. It can be a little frustrating as you may need to remove the front bumper cover. The alignment measurements (starting with the radiator support) are...
