The seats for the 2008 are the same as the 03-06 in terms of headroom. Jon B at Parts Rack might be able to help you. The passenger seat for 2008 cannot be modified because it includes an occupant classification system sensor.
Q: SnakeEye: Is there an easy fix to address the trunk lid not fully releasing when using the fob?
A: Two things you can look at: 1. make sure your striker is centered to the latch. 2. Try turning down the rear rubber overslam bumpers so they engage a the fascia a little more. This may...

Reply for Schulmann on '06 rear diff 'click':
A 'click' noise coming from the rear of the car during accel or decel could be coming from the rear wheel hub and halfshaft spline interface due to the very slight wear-in of the hub and shaft fit. We call it 'spline click'. Retorquing the rear hub...
graphite: Hi from Europe,
thanks for making the effort to answer our questions. all my questions refer to 2002 rt10.
Are there any 2002 Connoly champagne seats laying around the factory ? Spares are always nice to have.

Q1: What are the exact weights for the 2008 Coupe versus the 2008 Convertible. Is there still a weight differential of about 30 lbs as on the 2006 model? (With the convertible actually being lighter.)
A1: Weight will vary from car to car but these are the official estimates
3,450 lbs...
Question: How much slower is the '08 ACR than a non acr '08 as far as top speed and 1/4 mile times?
The ACR 0-60 times are identical to the 08 SRT-10.
In the 1/4 mile, the ACR is about 0.1-0.2 seconds slower than the SRT-10.
We just tested the top speed of the ACR at our Arizona Proving...
JonB - PartRack: SRT Engineers, FBW Throttle Questions Please:
How quickly does "The Computer" allow WOT on the 2008 Fly-By-Wire throttle? My Charger Daytona only allows 75% of WOT in 1st when I try to go WOT, and that is meted out til 2000 RPM. How intrusive is the 2008 FBW WOT management? Do...
black08: Obviously, thousands of hours were logged on the track during the development of the ACR. I was wondering if the SRT engineers could give us an idea of how much quicker the ACR was on the track versus the regular '08 model?
We have tested at many tracks and the results vary with...

Mopar is currently selling the 2008 hood. Questions: Does the intake inlet of the 08 hood line up with the 03-06 filter box? The 08 hood does not come with the vent covers from Mopar nor are they listed as a Mopar part. Are they sold seperately? How does one obtain the vent covers if they...
Reply for Bobpantax and Vipermann on engine/trans mounts:
'08 Viper engine mounts are increased durometer (harder) compared to the '06 engine mounts to handle the increased engine output. The '08 engine mounts will fit the '03 to '06 cars for those who want to upgrade. The harder engine mounts...
rcl4668: What pad would you recommend for the Stoptechs for someone who had to run one pad for both street and running 6-7 HPDE/track days per year?
The Viper SRT-10 and ACR share the same brake pad. We have found this brake pad to be an excellent compromise for both street and track use...
doctorbob: I would like to know the expected wear on the Pilot Cup tires of the ACR and wear if you put on stock PS2s. Obviously, you're just not going to be taking this car only to and from the track so I was interested on advice if you were to take the ACR on an extended trip.

The front timing covers (that include the oil pump housing) for the 03-06 Vipers have been on backorder from the dealer for many months (with no expected new production date). Will these be available anytime in the future? Is this part available with the short block currently available?
We...

I just finished reading the ACR article in the most recent Viper Magazine. In the article it summarizes the ACR suspension mods. In particular it mentions, "The more aggressive ACR suspension setup requires increased roll stiffness up front, so a new stiffer front stabilizer bar is...
Early93Viper: Without violating any company policies, can you comment on how committed Chrysler's new owners are to the Viper? We are seeing some very scary rumors right now. Also are the new owners committed to producing and making available parts for the GEN I and GEN II vipers?
We can not...
Reply for Paul Hawker on the '08 transmission:
The '08 TR6060 transmission is 'beefier' due to bigger gears, shafts, and bearings... more case structure... 6 lbs heavier and 10mm longer compared to the T56. It shifts better due to reduced friction linear shift rail bearings, all new...
"Les Quam asks: My question is of the utmost importance (LOL) since it is a hotly disputed issue on the forums for quite some time.(at least a few months) Perhaps the engineers at Dodge can put this issue to rest once and for all.
Is the Viper V-10 motor considered a "big block"???
The term...

Question on 2006 Coupe regarding heat inside the cockpit:The heat inside my 2006 Coupe is like the heat in Death Valley. I have already removed cats and crossover pipe but nothing has changed. The AC runs fantastically, it is very effective. However sometimes I would like to drive...
