    I need some support - head gaskets

    After checking around, I've found that the preferred service technique on old Vipers like mine is head gasket change. No one is interested in pulling a motor from a car that is beyond the 3/36. I guess the 7/70 works just not the same way.

    I need some support - head gaskets

    I used JonB's advice and had my '94 inspected for coolants leaks before the 7/70 ran out. Guess what. No coolants leaks but... Oil leaking from the head gasket. Technician Mike has replaced head gaskets on some Vipers and sent one engine in to Arrows. Winter is just beginning to descend on...

    Northwind Engineering 2" seat lowering kit

    Re: Northwind Engineering 2\" seat lowering kit I used the 2" kit in my 1994. The posts face up & forward. The short posts go in the back. The longer posts go in the front. Finger tight on the floor then finger tight on the seat-frame. After everything is lined up then tighten things down.

    reading the oil dipstick

    It maybe that you are no letting the oil settle down into the oil pan. It takes some time for that last 1/4 quart to work it's way down from the V10 rocker gear. I've never used any oil between 3000 mi oil changes.

    How many of you bought NEW?

    The Viper chassis is dynoed before the body panels go on. If you got your car new with on three miles on it, it was a low mileage 'New' car. Finding a car with low mileage is easy. The warrant coverage is a substantial as the the Viper is rugged. Buying a one or two year old Viper would...

    Competition?

    I was talking to an auto dealer about his car and my Viper. He asked me, "What other cars did I consider, eight years ago, when I purchased my Viper?" I was confused. I had NEVER thought about it! I only wanted a Viper. Competition? I think <FONT size="4">NOT</FONT s>
