    Will 315's fit on the front?

    Re: Will 315\'s fit on the front? Yes, that is do-able. A 315/17 on a 10" stock rim is being used in road course and auto-cross. The tire will have some center crown as it gets a bit crowded on that rim. The benefit is it will take away much of the understeer in the car and due to the larger...

    Mopar street heads vs. Porting stock heads?

    Dan, I almost always agree with you but an exception exists in this case, the manifold and throttle bodies are good for allowing another 100 hp before they become the bottleneck. Heads, especially when combined with headers can do some good. Heads alone such as the ones in the MoPar catalog and...

    slight high speed tire woble....approx. 90 mph

    Hmm, advice is always good, this may be more than needed but here goes. If a tire wobble is in the front you will feel it in the steering wheel vs. the seat of your pants. This has been done no doubt. If the wobble is at 90 and up on a Viper, and you can drive out of it, say 110 to 120 it...

    Jack support locations?

    Rich, yes you can jack your car up in the center but it should not be done without some wood to span and or protect the frame rails. The best way is to use the designed in jacking points. You will find four, located at the ends of the exhaust sills. On the underside of the car you will find a...

    $40K lease residual- what are '97's really selling for?

    Re: $40K lease residual- what are \'97\'s really selling for? To add to my associate, Bill Pemberton's answers here, you won't see any leasing company getting more aggressive on Viper residuals even though it is apparent they are leaving big equity in them. One reason, the non-essential type...

    New owner questions

    RE: the small arrow, suggests you upshift for the best fuel economy. If it is constantly lit the previous owner probably got irritated and disconnected the harness at the side of the trans. The lite is part of the skip-shift mechanism which under certain light throttle conditions locks you out...

    low profile jack

    I am a Griot's jack man also. The first time I used it at Viper Days on the race car the folks at Griot sold three more. Stable low profile, very maneuverable with a center wheel that it rests on in the full down position. Love this jack.

    Octane Issue

    There are much more sophisticated answers to your question but a couple of things to remember. Octane does not increase power. Octane will subdue detonation. If you had no detonation, which I doubt you did, then you would not have any difference from it. You could have fuel that is much...

    2000 ACR brakes grabbing at 5000 miles

    Jeff, Take your Viper up to a reasonable speed and stop aggressively three successive times in a row. This will put some heat in them, clean any rust, noise from pads or other oddities that are temporary in nature. If the noise and or pull is not completely gone then see your dealer for a...

    ACR OWNER ALERT LETS BAND TOGETHER

    Shock Rattle: hmm, before we demand all new shocks, (which if it sounds unjustified your fate has already been decided) lets identify the actual noise. I have read through the posts but it still eludes us I think. The shock itself and internal components do not appear to be involved. Do...
