    Oil Starvation

    Great advice on oil starvation by Jerry and Steve. I have been researching this issue for some time and can contribute. During the 2000 Viper Days racing season I watched the needle on my "capillary style" oil pressure gauge fall while cornering and braking hard. My "#13 Woodhouse.com"...

    Amonia Smell in 2000 GTS

    Hi Jerry, Your problem could be all one, or two individual ones I suppose. A good exhaust system inspection is in order here. It is possible that the engine light and smell are both caused by air being able to enter your exhaust system upstream from your cats and ego sensors. I assume you...

    Grease

    Wheel bearings are sealed, your other greaseable suspension components suffer from brake heat when doing track events and bleed all over the place. The highest temp grease available would be the best. We had to develop some heat protection shields for all those joints. If interested you can...

    A Few Viper Questions!

    If Jon B sees your note you will be in the pink. But just briefly, Gen II is 96 and later. 50 HP plus some excellent chassis upgrades including frame mods, spring and A-arm changes. Basically two engines through the years, (yes experts I know about the 415 hp and the 460 hp but too small to...

    Wheel run-out - Need Help!

    Jack, I forgot to answer the "persue some help" part of your post. My opinion only: I doubt you would see any assistance on these rims, as this has a high probability of being user induced, you are the second owner and off the end of the warranty by three years.

    Wheel run-out - Need Help!

    Unsure of the TSB you are referring to but the info you are looking for, perhaps I can help. Viper rims are tender in some ways and can get bent or warped over time. This can come from a tire machine when mounting and dismounting or hard road impact toward the inside edge of the tire. The...

    Dyno Question

    Gentlemen: A normally aspirated engine loses 4% of the power it has at Sea Level for every 1000 ft above sea level. You can also count on dyno's being accurate within some margin of error as all specifications are corrected back to sea level mathematically. You can also not worry...

    Good bye and happy holiday's

    Re: Good bye and happy holiday\'s I met Steve in 1996 at the first Viper Ferrari War. That man was loud and even though a young man I felt a touch of "Old World Italian". I wasn't too sure what to think of him but other than, hmm just as well give him a chance, he after all was the president...

    Why is my 2001 ACR so slow?

    Paul, You have recieved stellar advice from your Viper brethren here, especially Joe H. and Jon B. I have little to add, but think we need to approach this with a well thought out plan. Yes a power test at 1000 miles is potential for a low number. On 00 and 01 engines the piston to wall...

    Optimum shiock setting for street and track (for 2001 ACRs)

    Stay close to Paul Mumford out on the west coast, he should give you some good input on the new Dynamic shock settings. They are very different from the Koni, using remote reservoirs etc. The shop manual covers the adjustment procedure and offers some tips on settings. Paul is the man who...

    '01 ABS, Two or Four Stage?

    Re: \'01 ABS, Two or Four Stage? Actually it is a three stage, or three seperate inputs if you will. Each front corner is on it's own and the rear is done as one. Not the absolute end of the high tech world.

    sagging doors

    If the adjustment needed is small you can get on your knees and give a swift tug on the base of the door in a skyward direction. After all, the reverse is how it started sagging to begin with. If more is needed then you can loosen the hinge bolts under the fascia just forward of the door. Be...

    Jay, I haven't spent much time with the new board so I really haven't earned the right to comment. However:::: Jon B's comments make sense to me, Bill Pemberton and I were discussing things last night, he is excited with the chat rooms and new layout. The one theme that we both thought would...
