    My first modd, non power modd

    That's a good idea. At least you don't have to run new speaker wires all throughout the car. Adding an amp for a sub at that point would be fairly easy too.

    Whats this 95 RT/10 worth?

    IMO, something is fishy when a guy wants to get rid of his Viper and get into a Vette. There may be some undisclosed problems. If you absolutely must get back into a Viper, it wouldn't hurt to have a look at that car IN PERSON. The dirt can be washed off, but you need to drive the car, check...

    Aluminum vs Chromolly flywheel

    Regarding different model years, ring gear tooth-count changed in 2003... 92-02....152 teeth. 03+ .....143 teeth. SPEC's Super Twin uses an aluminum flywheel and it has seen over 1500rwhp. I wouldn't have any issue running an aluminum flywheel; just make sure to loc-tite the bolts and...

    Barret Jackson not such a good deal anymore..

    Grundy here as well. They don't have mileage restrictions, but do not allow commuting with the car...you must prove that you have a daily driver. Very friendly person helped me get set up. No hassles.

    99 RT/10 with Twin 61mm turbos

    Although my buddy and I did this car a couple years ago, I wanted to put it up here for reference. Sharing because I just found one of the dyno videos! '99 RT/10. Stock engine with twin 61mm turbos mounted low under the footwells. 60# side-feed injectors triple-255 pumps custom...

    Dual Ball Bearing or Journal Bearing on Turbos..

    As long as the "blowoff" valves are properly set up, the oil supply is adequate, and the driver's not being an idiot, a journal bearing turbo's thrust bearing is plenty adequate for duty in a TT Viper.

    Dual Ball Bearing or Journal Bearing on Turbos..

    The difference in spool time is negligible. The rebuildability is definitely and advantage. Bearings in ball-bearing turbos skip along at 100k RPM anyway, which is why the races are always scuffed no matter how clean the oil has been. Put the money elsewhere like in tuning and fuel delivery.

    Let's start the talking... where and what VOI 12!

    Just another plug... Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, AL is hosting the Honda Indy Grand Prix this weekend... so there will probably be some good footage of the place on television! :D Oh, and Alabama International Raceway (1/4 mile dragstrip) is about 30-40 minutes away and they're...

    97 Dodge Viper GTS $27k obo

    To me, this one looks like alot of car for the money, even with the repair issue. It would be an especially nice "driver" for the guy who could care less about collecting it and/or flipping it for profit. GenII (especially GTS) prices are on the rebound so if you hold out a little longer...

    This is just getting frustrating......car dead again

    I went through similar situation on my 96 GTS. It had .140 amps (140 milliamps) flowing even with everything off and doors locked. Funny thing is my LED's on the inner handled stayed lit unless I armed the alarm. They're NOT supposed to stay on...they're supposed to turn off after about 10...

    Identification HELP.................

    The disk you pictured above is NOT a SPEC disk. The "blueish" fins that hold the lining on look suspiciously flimsy...I think it might be a chinese disk. We have had a lot of luck out of the SPEC stage 2+ clutches. They use a "hybrid" disk with Kevlar on one side and Semi-metallic lining on...

    Rebuilding/upgrading engine - feedback on buildsheet please

    You mentioned the machine shop spec'ing the cam unless otherwise provided... Not sure who your machine shop is, but I recommend you use a reputable engine guy, specifically a cylinder head and camshaft guy, to spec a camshaft for the build.

    yellow box dialed in for speedo

    There is a chart included in the package telling you what settings to set the dip-switches to for various percentage changes to the speed. Of course, this has to be calculated using your different gear ratio and different tire size...but it does allow VERY precise settings. I got one through...

    "Tail of the Dragon"

    Went to Gatlinburg, TN area this weekend with some friends and our wives. The guys went driving on Friday and we hit up some really great roads. Took the Foothills Pkway South out of Townsend, TN to US 129, drove the 318 curves in 11 miles called "Tail of the Dragon" to Robinsville, NC. Ate...

    3:73 gears are you happy with them.

    I drive a 4.11 in my GenII! It's actually not bad. I don't think you'd notice one bit of difference in the 3.55 and 3.73's. Go with either one; you'll love the drivability.

    Please elaborate on this statement...Which cylinder heads? Why? Why not the viper head? :dunno:

    Let's start the talking... where and what VOI 12!

    Here's another suggestion: Hallett Motor Racing Circuit About 30 miles West of Tulsa, OK. Now that's centrally located. I have a good contact there. :2tu: :cool:

    Ever get called a Corvette?

    Last week, and old guy asked me who painted my '96 B/W. I told him, "Dodge painted it." He said, "Where's that?" These cars definitely garner comments from all types.

    SCT Question.

    Yea, I was a little skeptical too, but then again, I don't know the capabilities of the SCT stuff yet. I recently picked up the handheld and the advantage III software for my personal '96 GTS... so you'll probably be hearing from me! :D Another option I'd like to add (since it's a thread...
