    Cooling Problem, help ?

    I have had a cracked thermostat housing (twice!) that has cased me to lose fluid. Don't know if the housing is the same (in my opinion crappy) design on the Gen II as Gen I.

    Powder Coating in San Jose/Bay Area

    They have them off (under warranty) so I figured I'd get them done in black..... since the red on the valve covers has been flaking off since I bought the car. Hopefully this sticks a bit better than the factory coating. If it doesn't, black will probably look worse than red did! PS: Poser parts...

    speeding ticket coming back from Yankee Stadium

    I went to www.ticketassassin.com and followed their instructions of fighting a ticket by mail "Trail by Written Declaration". Cost $25 (I believe) to sign up for the web site, and it's probably information that is available free somewhere, but it worked! That makes it worth the money for me...

    Warning!!! Don't do this

    Re: Warning!!! Don\'t do this Same thing happened to mine. It had been used 2 or 3 times at the most. A member from this site sent me his top a few years back. The fabric is perfect, but the hardware is a mess. Some day I will make one good top out of the 2, and still have some spare parts to...

    2000 Rims on a 95?

    That is so you can dry between the decklid and the rear bumper without opening the decklid, and between the rear fenders and the bumper. :D

    Hi-Flow Cats and Smog Check II

    I have Hen-S-E high flow cats (plus headers and Borla 3" mufflers) and my car was just as clean this time as it was before having it done.

    Has your seat leather been replaced?

    My stock leather was in pretty poor shape after 30k miles. Venzano does beautiful work, but it is not inexpensive! I am very happy with my SnakeHydes interior. Relatively inexpensive, and VERY nice leather.

    Shifter advice

    I had both, and prefer the SVS. The *old* B&M has problems, and the newer design (about 3 years ago) fixed that issue. SVS or B&M + MGW = VERY short throw (too short for some). Install - NOT a no brainer. It's not rocket science, but you need to take off the tunnel cover and (at least on...

    DC Performance Dyno Days-CA-: October 2nd 2004

    That is a GREAT deal. You So CA folks are lucky to have a shop like Dan's available. Had my car dyno'd in No CA, and it was $85 for 2 pulls, without A/F measurement (and of course, no lunch!)

    Wuss in Z06 wants no part of the Viper on way home today . . .

    I have a buddy w/ a 360, and although we have not "run", his car feels very fast from 100MPH and up. (I also happen to think it is a beautiful car)

    What kind of gears do you guys have or reccomend?

    3.73 on a car that had 3.07 would be very similar (% of change) to putting 4.10 on a car w/ 3.42. I am quite happy with 3.54, but there are others on this board that have gone 3.73 and are happy with them.

    What kind of gears do you guys have or reccomend?

    Sean Roe did a before and after dyno, and said that the dyno reads (something like) 15HP lower w/ the 3.54 gear. This does not mean you lose horsepower, just that the dynojet dyno reads it differently.

    LOOK!!! ONE WEEK LEFT TO ENTER OUR RAFFLE!!!

    I saw that on "rides" Tuesday PM also. Awesome paint! I was thinking how cool a set of "ghost flames" would look on a Viper. This thread shows it. I think it looks great!

    What battery is best?

    I have had an Optima in my car for ~ 5 years. No problem! Also, a bettery tender for cars you don't drive often will prolong battery life.

    What kind of gears do you guys have or reccomend?

    I bought a rear end complete w/ 3.54 gears from Dan Cragin (www.dcperformance.com). The rear end was built by Unitrax. Their gear sets and rear ends are very well thought of. Sold my stock rear end for about what I bought the complete one w/ the new gears for. Not that difficult to swap rear...

    Which Viper would you get if you had it to do over?

    I would buy one that someone else already did the mods to, but that was well maintained. Probably could save enough doing it that way to buy a nice "bad weather car".

    Nearing warranty end... what to check?

    I am going to take my car in to have it checked over. It is a 94. I have extended the extended warranty, and it will end in mid November (car is almost 11 years old - build Oct 3 93). Anyway, I was going to have the compression checked, have the cooling system pressure tested. Head gaskets were...
