    Viper vs. ZO6 = Bad Comparison

    Shifting tips

    Great questions viperct2001 I hope someone answers your questions because I want to know the answers to. One thing you can try is shift by lightly touching the throttle, once you get the feel for that go 1/4 throttle, 1/3, 1/2, 3/4 etc. To me it seems best to hold maybe 1/3 to 1/2 throttle while...

    All you tire burners--some reassurance please...

    I would say don't worry about it. Stock car, new tires, with good pavement, your experience sounds about right. If you really want to try a tire burning -&gt; go from a dead stop rev to 4K drop clutch & go WOT you should spin and spin and spin, so forth and so on... just be careful not to...

    Hooking up the back tires - how the #!@% do I do it?

    I think your SOL with 18" rims you can't do much with tires. The Kumhos only come in 17" but do grip much better than sports.

    EBC Greens burning rotor?? opinions (pic)

    Ditto what treynor said. It seems to be normal so far the rotors don't seem to be warped and it still stops fine. I have been to the strip twice since the original post and each time the black spots re-appeared.

    What's with my fuel gauge??

    Re: What\'s with my fuel gauge?? Mine seems to go down real fast once past the 1/2 tank mark, it goes like this 3/4 to 1/2 = takes 75 miles 1/2 to 1/4 = takes 30 miles 1/4 to 0/0 = takes 15 miles once it gets to 1/4 I have to find some gas real fast

    Calling all serious drag racers

    I believe it's your Kevlar clutch that's the problem (slipping). I have the AL flywheel and stock (new version) clutch & pressure plate. I have no slipping at all. This is with near 600 rwhp. I have about 25 1/4 runs with it and 3,000 miles no problems yet. BTW you know the bogging is normal...

    Manual transmition in a beast

    You know there is a knob under the steering wheel to move the petals up and down. Maybe you test car had them all the way up?? Also there is a mod that you can add to make the clutch even with the brake and gas.

    MSD NOS window switch

    FF is right, you first have to buy the switch from someplace like jegs.com (who I would recommend) then send it off to MSD for conversion. They will convert it to work for a Viper. You also will need a relay (or at least I did) to turn on/off your system. If you need help installing and hooking...

    OFFICIAL SRT-10 POLL!!! THUMBS UP or THUMBS DOWN?

    The SRT is not ugly but it's not got the looks that a Viper should, so thumbs down.

    Need Help Fast

    Besides the above advice, I will give you this. If you are experiencing wild wheel spin, off the line or the 1-2 shift don't try and ride it out unless you feel they are catching. There have been more than one Viper owner who put the car into a wall because he thought he could ride out the...

    Edelbrock headers/exhaust

    Interesting I just called Jegs.com p/n 350-6606 and they said $1499 and yes it's for a Viper, same as Summit. A little more searching and I found Borla headers for $1,179 summit.com p/n BOR-17113 -&gt; T-304 STAINLESS STEEL slip-fit racing 1-5/8" (Off-Hwy only) Product Type HEADER (does not...

    ET'S ON MY FIRST OUTING

    Re: ET\'S ON MY FIRST OUTING J SMITH while your times are not spectacular they are not too bad.
