    Are your transmissions holding up to 800+ rwhp?

    For anybody who DRIVES their car, the stock Viper tranny will not last very long with 800+ RWHP..... I think the longest I had one last was about 2,500 miles. I stripped off the teeth on the input cluster like peeling a bananna. I have heard good things about the G-force. It has almost straight...

    SVS Stryker SRT-10 TT 760rwhp 870rwftlbs. @ 10.5psi

    Jr., In my quest for knowledge, I have discussed this matter with Jason Heffner and John Hennessseyy to some degree. I may be able to shed some light on the question at hand: John Hennessseyy said in passing he believes the SRT intake manifold does not seem to make as much torque as the Gen-II...

    Who makes a digital numeric A/F gauge

    Ab, that is the FJO wide band O2 sensor with display. I think it is about $750.00. I would go with a dual wide band O2. Call the guys at HP freaks.com. They have great prices and great service.

    Thinking about installing a paxton supercharger need some advice.

    I agree with JD. Tony is an ace mechanic and driver! By the way, how many Roe blowers has Tony installed so far?

    Re: Who Has the Biggest Top End And Really Been There On This Site Roger, "Legally" kind of takes the fun out of it, dont you think? LOL! One thing you forgot to mention is the fact there is going to be a standing mile shootout before the event!

    Manny, Like I said, All you need is the stock [******], 2" lowering, corner weighting with the proper weight balance front to rear, bias and the proper alignment with a little rake and you will be much better off. The stock car is stable as can be at 185-190. The more important thing to keep...

    Who Has the Biggest Top End And Really Been There On This Site

    Mike, the optimum air fuel ratio for power is 12.5:1. Running richer than 12.5:1 generally makes less power. The purpose for the richer mix is the idea the fuel will absorb some of the heat. This is not really the right way to go as the specific heat absorption of water is 7 times that of fuel...

    Manny, if you are even thinking of these things, I would recommend not going 200+ MPH! Either you do it or you don't: While splitters and wings may look cool, the pimpware has no business on the car for the high speed [******]. All it does is slows down the car and could actually make the car...

    Manny, I did the video with the windows open. That's why the camera started to vibrate @ 175 ish. Depending on how well your doors/windows seal, you could have the windows push out at 165-185. It all depends upon the car and the weather. From What I hear, Jerry is no longer at autoform...

    Anyone have experience with Lingenfelter twin turbo z06?

    Riverflyer, I was not aware the Gen 3's had that problem. I do not know if it is a design or dimensional problem. I would have to see the windage tray and oil pan/oil pickup/oil pump/oil filter layouts to further comment. As far as a fix for the Vette is concerned, I could not tell you except...

    Anyone have experience with Lingenfelter twin turbo z06?

    Riverflyer, I would think you would want a N/A car for road course racing. Why not just get some engine work done to the RT. The torque of the Viper on the road course is awesome! Did you know 99% of the LPE TT Vettes on the road do not have an oil cooler? Corvettes do not come with an oil...

    Paolo, you da man. Do you have a video clip? Would love to hear your car go by at 200mph!! Riverflyer, go to http://www.supercarschicago.com/, go to the right side and click on the media section for the 209 MPH Viper. It says 209 because I did not take into account the growth of the tires...

    I'm coming to BG, who wants some??

    Re: I\'m coming to BG, who wants some?? Mike, Congrats on getting your car back! I am sure you got something extra special from Doug since you dropped off the car near the end of last year! How much power did you make without the methanol/water injection? How much with? I hope you got...

    From a dead stop, I hit 200 MPH in less than 25 seconds and 213 MPH at the 6200 RPM fuel cut in 28 seconds. Piece of cake. :headbang:

    I just got into the Hot Rod Magazine Pump Gas Drags!

    Barry, thanks for the nod! I still owe you a tape, can you send me your address again? Sorry I will get it out right away! Casey, thanks! I now have a camera and a mount! Tony, I see Tom and David are in and I think Jason Heffner will drive the car for this competition. Jay, what can I say...

    I just got into the Hot Rod Magazine Pump Gas Drags!

    Pat, I think there will be a lot of other faster cars than the Vipers for the 1/4 mile. Besides Tom Welch and Dr Roof will be there as well and those guys both put a ghetto a$$whipping on me in Tx as they are better drag racers and have their cars set up more for drag racing. Thanks for the nod...

    I just got into the Hot Rod Magazine Pump Gas Drags!

    TZOID, from what I understand, 10.5 cars are the slowest ones there. I would hazard to guess that there are some 8 second cars there. As far as the missed shifts go, I am thinking of having Mr. Jason Heffner run his creation for the magazine without having me F'ing things up. I already got my...

    Calling Out Paolo!

    David, I wish I was going, but I blew up the stock trans in the car that was in Texas and the heavy duty one Rockland Standard Gear is making for me is not yet done. They are making me a stock geared one for the interium time frame that has a special treatment on the gears and a special fitting...
