    Do 3.55 gears really lower indicated HP?

    No prob, i was told those numbers when I was configuring and considering new gears too, so they should be somewhat accurate if anyone else wants to chime in? Out of all the mods I'm doing this summer, I'm most looking forward to the AR Headers/Cats and Rockers. Should really add some power and...

    Every time Viper goes to City Cops stop me

    I remember I was at a main intersection on a hill waiting for the light to change..A cop pulled up next to me, stared over at me and said "Rip It!" I looked over, smiled and laughed. Of course I didn't.. because I wasn't sure if he was testing me to see if I would actually do it and give me a...

    Harland Sharpe 1,7 RR's vs T&D

    Thanks for the input man.. I really appreciate it, that helps me a lot. Which pushrods were you going with? Do you have a link to them? I'd like to check them out since I plan on upgrading my Rockers soon to either the Shaft mount T&D Roller Rockers or Jesel Shaft Rockers as I stated earlier...

    Every time Viper goes to City Cops stop me

    Whoever pulled you over for that should be fired. For one, that's not fast.. and two, 1mph over? That's ridiculous and completely unnecessary.

    Top Gear North America 1st episode

    Agreed. BBC Top Gear is Legendary :smirk: Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May are possibly some of the greatest hosts to any show on television. They are entertaining, funny, know their stuff about almost any car, along with being really good drivers who can relate to the common...

    Harland Sharpe 1,7 RR's vs T&D

    Hey, thanks for following up. I was originally told by upgrading to the more expensive Rocker, I would be able to keep my stock 708 cam which I would benefit from over an aftermarket cam because I wouldn't have to upgrade and change my valve train with aftermarket springs, retainers, lifters...

    Do 3.55 gears really lower indicated HP?

    I guess I worded that wrong, my bad. Yes, I meant wouldn't you lose top speed changing gears? From everything I've read the 96 GTS ranges around 185-192mph. Not that I would ever go that fast on the road lol, but out of curiosity, how much would that get lowered as a result to any of the...

    Do 3.55 gears really lower indicated HP?

    $400 for Ratio Ring and Pinion Gearset, plus $200 for the Speedo Adjustment Unit. If you do all of that from JonB's site I believe it would cost around $1000-$1200 with labor when all is said and done. That also depends on who you take it too and how much they charge per hour of course.

    Do 3.55 gears really lower indicated HP?

    I understand the higher the gear set number(3.73), the more power your car is going to have acceleration wise, but won't you lose top end power as a result? I would imagine, this wouldn't matter if you're not tracking your car trying to achieve high top speeds, but was just curious.

    2013 Viper "Track Key"

    Chuck, I have the TPMS in my car. Last year one of my tires went flat and in the process one of the units in that specific tire broke as well. I bought a cheap tire offline as a temporarily replacement; however, I did buy another unit and just haven't had it installed in the tire yet. My...

    GTS picked up :)

    I love that car! Great choice on the yellow GTS. One of the best colors you can buy besides B/W of course:2tu: I actually almost bought a solid yellow 2002 with 5,000 miles back in 2008 for $55k. Have fun with that beast of a car, I'm sure it will put a smile on your face every time you see it...

    Harland Sharpe 1,7 RR's vs T&D

    Greg, so if I'm doing the Gunmetal Silver Shaft mount T&D Roller Rockers or Jesel Shaft Rockers within the next few months and I already have the 708cam stock in my car(96 GTS)and stock springs. Are you saying you suggest I also get stronger/stiffer pushrods instead of leaving the stock ones...

    Top Gear North America 1st episode

    Nice, I'm glad to hear that. I dunno, I've seen parts of the North American one, it's just not the same. You can't take something great and make it better, they should have just stuck with BBC Top Gear and air it on any regular cable HD Channel. It's my favorite show on TV, that's for sure...

    Identification HELP.................

    Well I was told it would be beneficial to upgrade to an Aluminum lightweight flywheel(Fidanza) and as an add on a Centerforce clutch. Considering the stock one is pretty heavy and my foot/leg tends to cramp up occasionally after periods of time when I'm in traffic or just driving in general. So...

    Identification HELP.................

    I mean, I heard they make a really good clutch. Did you just have a bad experience from driving the car hard a lot? I know that's no excuse, but I was just wondering? I'm obviously not going to be tracking my car at all, so I definitely want the most reliable clutch I can get if I'm gonna be...

    Identification HELP.................

    Can anyone else chime in? I was planning on buying a new Centerforce clutch this summer. Has anyone else had bad experiences with them? :dunno: I believe this is the one I was going to get: Centerforce Clutches
