    Awesome news Eric! You were on 10# before, correct? You think you are making quite a bit more HP than before?

    sealer/gasket question...

    I buy it at autozone or o'reilly autoparts stores. I believe napa sells it as well. It does dry up in the container within 3-6 months after opening it, depending on how you store it. But most sealant manufacturers recommend using their products within that period as well.

    sealer/gasket question...

    I actually use the gray sealant from Right Stuff. It is very versatile and dries quick. You can actually put it in use within 10-15min after application. It is OEM approved for most imports. It is higher temp than blue rtv and can reliably replace a gasket if necessary. The oil pan gasket...

    For Sale: Gen III seats with Gen II mounting kit

    Oh so tempting.... So you just set the front-to-back adjustment before you mount it in the car?

    check valve question

    My fuel pressure is fine during driving and WOT, but my pressure in the lines has never stayed up for more than a couple hours after shut off. Lots of different cars lose pressure at different rates, so I just figured this one doesn't have a system to keep it from dropping quickly.

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Yeah, none of that sounds the same as the canister/module I have. here is a pic that I had of the newer (00-02?) style module - I think this may have been from you, Eric and here are some pics of mine (97) You can see they are very different. It almost looks like the newer style has...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Eric, You know I totally agree with you. There are actually a lot of possible advantages to this type of setup, besides the inexpensive cost. As I've said before, some Viper owners think they need to spend $$ to get piece of mind, not understanding the actual reason for buying it. Chris...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Eric, thanks for replying on here. Great minds... ;) I think your setup proves that my idea my just work. I'd like to see any pics you took of your canister and pumps. Did you go with -6an for a reason? I'd still like to hear more ideas on this setup.

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    I was on 6.5# but with JM heads and Arrow RRs and yes, W/M two 325cc nozzles and 50/50 mix coming on 100% by about 4psi

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    That would be difficult to measure consistently since the BAP varies voltage constantly. I'm at 660rwhp on the stock pump with a BAP and I'm not running out of fuel either :cool:

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    I'm trying to stay away from a return-style setup because of the extra cost and hassle of running new fuel lines under the car and mounting a filter and worrying about all the fittings. My setup is simple, adds a significant amount of flow, and uses mostly stock parts, only adding an additional...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Nice thinking :) but it doesn't look anything like what you posted above and gave all the listing for. I'm not a fluid dynamicist so I couldn't comment on whether it will work or not. But it would be interesting to find out. Good luck.

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Also Chad, I know you haven't worked with the Roe yet, so I'm going to explain why Roe guys haven't been able to use return-style fuel systems. I would let you waste the $1500 you just theoretically spent on it, but I like you ;) If you look at the fuel rails on a Roe, there is absolutely...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Chad, I know you were talking about pulling it yourself. I'm just stating that you are paying someone $265 to mount 2 pumps in your canister, and it doesn't even include the labor to remove it :rolaugh: I have the canister apart and it will not be to hard to hang 2 pumps in there. Once I...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Its all about gallons per hour. From what I have read, the stock system runs out of flow. You replace it with the Walbro to get more gph/lph. I'm just looking at adding them together. The stock pump is about 230lph. The Walbro is 255lph. You are only gaining about 25lph by replacing the stock...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Tony, I'm not sure of the part in the pic. Is that piece that is under the regulator? I have a 97 GTS and the canister seems to look different than any of the pics I've seen of it Dan, Thank you for your reply. It is very helpful. That's a very good point about the stock pump possibly not...

    Which parts are cheap Russ?

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    Really?? Did you think about what you just described? A Walbro is less than $100 and some fittings and submersible fuel line is $100 at most. So you are paying them $200 to hang the pumps in your cage? And that doesn't even pay for the labor to R&R it :lmao:

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    There is a difference between cheap and bad. Just because it doesn't cost $thousands$ and come from Hennessey (or any other big name Viper shop), doesn't mean it is wrong or not going to work. Phil, do you have the most expensive fuel system made? I guarantee you do not. Does that mean its...

    Ideas on possible fuel system upgrade

    I've been trying to come up with a fuel system upgrade for boost applications that is cheap and easy to do for most people and that will work for the majority of HP levels out there. This is my idea - Add a Walbro 255 to the stock fuel tank canister, next to the stock fuel pump. Tee it...

    Rebuilt radiator

    The shop I took my rad to said a rodding was not necessary in a rad in good condition and fairly new. He said rodding is only to clean out old scaling and collapsed tubes. He prefers not to rod out the tubes because it has the chance to puncture them during the process. He said the backflush...

    Rebuilt radiator

    I just took mine in to see about this as well. I decided on just a cleaning/backflush for $30. The rad shop had never done this before but said it should be no problem. The only problem I had was that it would take him a few weeks to have the 3core custom made and I wasn't willing to wait...
