    Interior carpeting for RT-10

    The binding is made from 2" strips of material I sewed to the edges. First lay the material upside down along the edges and sew 1/4 from the edge then roll it over the edge and glue it with contact then sometimes I do another stitch along the edge where folded over. Or if you can't sew it cut...

    Interior carpeting for RT-10

    YaaaH, Rub it in!!! We just had 5" of snow, I'm moving!! I order carpet from Larry Dennis Upholstery or Gulf Fabrics. Both on the net and they sell small quantities reasonable. Or I have also bought left overs from a local shop that does cars. You should only need 2 yards for the RT.

    Interior carpeting for RT-10

    Hi Rich, I would just get the same weave and then take the seats out and do it myself. You can pull the old carpet and use it as a template. I use contact cement on carpet and upholstery to glue it down. I use a cheap primer gun and spray it on at about 40psi pressure. The glue stays for ever in...

    Black sludge in throttle body

    Exactly, Tom. I've been in the car storage business since '73 and the worst thing you can do is keep starting the engine and not getting the oil up to temp to vaporize all the fuel and contaminant you just put into it with a cold start. Guys just don't get it!! Leave it sit until you can drive...

    Vipers to return to ALMS by 09'

    Chuck, I agree!!! I lost interest in NASCAR when they made all the cars to the same specs and tube frames and almost all plastic. Now they are turning it into an Import race. I think NoAmericanStockCAR has made a big mistake and is going to loose a lot of race fans.:confused:

    Newbie here. first post, about exhaust part #'s

    I'd use the Corsa and go out the back. Won't you have to change the sills from side exhauat also. I had Borla on my GTS and Corsa on my RT. The RT was to quiet and the open trunk in GTS the Borla was too loud so I swapped from car to car. Much better!!!! on both. I ordered both systems from Jon...

    Vipers In Snow, Post your snow pictures!

    Man, It was really difficult getting the RT into the van to ship it to Seattle. First tried to back it up the ramp and it was all over the place. Had to make 3 runs forward and finally made it in. Whoops! That's what she said.:D :2tu: It made it to Seattle no damage. A trucker friend really...

    Thread Flags Gone?

    Is it just me or have the thread flags been removed. I don't see the Flag under the rating column any more that tells me which thread I have replied. It was pretty handy and easier than trying to remember the name of the thread. It is also handy having the email notice set to on. THX to the...

    Trans fluid????

    I just looked at my on-line manuals (Mitchell) and think it's funny that it shows a 98 GTS to use ATF3, a 2001 GTS uses Castrol Syntec LT and an 04 SRT uses 75-85 synthetic fluid. Think maybe we make too big of a deal on fluids?? How many transmissions are blown from the wrong fluids?? Any idea...

    Rear end oil change

    Duh, think about this. What??? Show me the problem or any effect of the pipe plug that was a problem. Yeah, a pipe plug is designed to put pressure on the surrounding metal, that's what keeps them from leaking. Sure like to hear from the guy who installed your gears. But it's Okay for a threaded...

    Rear end oil change

    Yeah, forgot that. I use a 1/8 pipe tap and then 1/8 pipe plug. Drill and tap at lowest point. Don't overtighten and strip it.

    Rear end oil change

    They even call for the fluid to be changed on new cars at a short first interval. The gears are set up tight to wear in a pattern and they produce more metal when new and that stays suspended in the fluid. The fluid called for is a GL5 75w-140 synthetic with 4oz. of positrac/friction modifier...

    ETHANOL VIPER

    I was reading an article this morning in Hot Rod Jan 07 issue about Super chargers and ethanol. WOW, E85 has 105 octane and no worry about ping. On page 110 a gent has a Viper SRT with a SVS conversion with 3 computor settings from 800-1000 hp. Says 220 mph in standing mile... Really interesting...

    Engine block heater

    luc, Really doubt it comes factory or dealer installed. Most don't even know what they are. The block heater fits in the right rear freeze plug 1-2 0'clock position. I would exit the cord to the right A/C drier area. To get one it is for a Ram pickup. NAPA part # 605-1620. Usually only need to...
