    Oil Pan Gasket Change

    Dan, Steve and I did notice that. There was rubber in the four corners.

    Oil Pan Gasket Change

    Hope so as well. It's always been very minor, so I'll have to monitor it.

    Salt is gone!!! DelMarVa Lets Roll!!!!!

    Dom, I had the Viper down to Steve's today. Getting down there this morning from here in Chester County was treacherous, but coming home was fun! Car is now filthy!

    Oil Pan Gasket Change

    I want to put a big "thank you" out there to my buddy Steve (Mopar Steve) for hosting my 03 in his garage today. He and I (well, mostly him!) dropped the oil pan, and changed out my gasket today. As I have posted here before, I've had a slight drip for a couple years (not the oil cooler lines...

    What is a Gen III wholesale or Trade value?

    Yep, I drive mine in the cold, as long as the roads are clear and dry. Unfortunately, they have NOT been for weeks, we've been having snow and ice once or twice a week here in Philadelphia. The Viper has never sat for more than 4 weeks at a time since I"ve owned it (April 2010), but I am at...

    What is a Gen III wholesale or Trade value?

    That's about what I was figuring myself. It's why I'm probably just going to drive the s%$# out of my 2003, as I'm already at 31,000.

    Viper in Pikesville MD Today

    Was hard to tell from the pic. We got another 2 inches of snow here today as well. The guy MUST have been picking up a car. Or, it was some sort of emergency (medical?) and his daily was out of service? Hard to fathom...

    Viper in Pikesville MD Today

    A Charger buddy of mine on FB was driving his truck in Pikesville MD today, and was behind a 'vert (looked like SSG) this afternoon on the highway. Anyone here? Maybe someone just bought a car and was picking it up?

    Looking For Some Advice and Opinions

    Pauls comment is the best one here. And I say this as someone who literally gets out of the SRT8 and then gets into the SRT10, and vice versa. Both rewarding cars, in different ways.

    Looking For Some Advice and Opinions

    Correct, that is what we are saying. You cannot "goof off". I've done a couple stupid things in my SRT8 where the traction control helped me. In the Viper, it would have been bad. I'm not a good enough driver to handle my Viper anywhere near it's potential, but it is STILL a heap o' fun! Even...

    Looking For Some Advice and Opinions

    If you had a blower on your SRT8, then speed-wise, it's not going to be AS big of a jump. However, the Viper is a road-course driver's car, and as good as the SRT8 is handling wise (for its size and weight) again, the Viper is another story. However, you must drive it at all times. It will not...

    Looking For Some Advice and Opinions

    I should clarify my reply. If I were in your position, and the Viper is going to be your "toy" in place of the SRT8 - , hell yes, go for it!!

    Looking For Some Advice and Opinions

    I currenly own both. I have a 2007 Charger SRT8 Superbee, and a 2003 Viper. Both great cars. However, as (perceived) fast as the SRT8, the Viper is a whole 'nother ball game. I have often thought about selling/trading both for a Gen 4, but I cannot justify it. I can't use the power, nor drive my...

    Anyone have a passenger side Mopar Race Exhaust they want to sell?

    Maybe get a good exhaust shop to fab something up for you?

    Rolex 24 Hr Daytona GTLM VS GTD

    I saw a preview special on FS1 network last night about the race, and it's history. There was a small segment on the Viper, and one SRT commercial. Overall, a good hour of television, and a good introduction to the race.

    Selling my 2009 ACR

    Wow, great car, and the orignal ECU, etc, for one price. If I weren't about to settle on a new house next month.... Someone needs to snap this up! Sorry you have to seel it though.

    gen 1 oil pressure

    Check with Pep Boys, I ordered 11 qts of Pennzoil 10W-30 for my Gen 3 from my local Pep Boys. Takes a few days for them to get it in (should be in tomorrow), it was about $9/qt.

    Missing something on oil pan??

    Yep, let me rephrase that: my buddy Steve's lift! Steve has been a lifesaver for many of us here. I trust him more with a Viper than most trained Viper mechanics.

    Missing something on oil pan??

    Ken, updating from your first post (that I just dug up today). Since that post was from 2009, with the possibility of your dipstick tube leaking, and this post was from 2012, for the pan gasket, what was the final outcome. As I said in my other reply to you, I've been chasing a mysterious leak...

    Dipstick Oil Leak?

    Kenbrackins, don't know if you're still posting here. I think I might have this same issue, my 03 with 31,000 has had a mysterious leak for a couple years now. I have another post out there about it, and I think it's either the pan gasket, or the dipstick. Looking with a flashlight at where the...
