    Need help installing Autoform Rollbar.........please

    I'm in the process of installing an autoform rollbar on my '98 GTS. A fellow member took it off his rt/10 when he found it wouldn't work with his new folding hard-top. So how do you guys attach the bottom legs? (the vertical legs running behind the seat) There's also two forward-facing bolt...

    direct fit rocker arms?

    From the research I've done on these, you need to check pushrod length on ANY aftermarket roller rockers. I suppose if you went with the stock 1.6 ratio (which begs the question WHY..) you could use stock pushrods. Since a different ratio roller rocker changes the geometry, you will probably...

    phone # for The Viper Store?

    We just had a run-in with the ViperStore recently too. My wife ordered a set of polished guage bezels late Sept. for my b-day in mid-October. By the end of Oct. she finally got to speak to a live person. It took another month for the answer; They didn't have any in stock to sell and didn't...

    Look at this.

    Next step is to let us know what color cap and emblems exist. Maybe Fangs AND Sneaky Pete. I'm sure we're all ready to send our donation.

    Gas struts for GTS rear hatch

    Gheesh Jon...I see where you're coming from, but come on. I buy my Viper-specific and performance stuff from you (I.E. exhaust, harnesses, intake, etc.). But for goofy little trinkets like gas struts for a window, side marker lights, etc. I get them wherever I can. I acknowledged that the gas...

    See what you started... I'm in for at least one too!

    do Vipers have X pipes stock?

    Probably not much good at the rear - you're right. Would be better just in front of or behind cats, but no room there...

    do Vipers have X pipes stock?

    Nope, no X-pipe on the stock Viper. I bought the RandomTech cat-back from Jon B at Partsrack and it has an X-pipe in place of the rear center resonator chamber. I've heard of some other aftermarket exhaust systems having X or H pipes, but no stock Viper to my knowledge.

    Prospective Viper owner has a few questions he needs answered ASAP:

    Just buy it and we'll figure it out later. As said above - it should have forged internals. I thought I remembered it being something like restrictive exhaust and maybe even a different box/smaller size intake or something to that affect - all the stuff you probably would have replaced even on...

    Cost of a good nitrous set up

    I guarantee once you get it installed and use it a time or two, you'll put the larger jets in it for 100 or 150 shot at least. All the jets come with the kit, so it won't cost you another nickle! The stock fuel system will feed up to the 200 shot. Some may have even been able to squeeze more...

    For those with 1.7 RR's

    Re: For those with 1.7 RR\'s Awesome! That's what I had hoped. Thanks for taking the time to ask.

    For those with 1.7 RR's

    Re: For those with 1.7 RR\'s Hey YANKEE, yes I R-E-A-D your post on Harland Sharps. It's great and full of information. Thank you AGAIN for referring me to it. There's just one question - what length pushrods for my '98 GTS? You said you're using 7.5". Thank you. I don't know what year...

    Cost of a good nitrous set up

    You tap into the fuel at the right rear of the intake. There's a brass fitting with a valve-stem fitting inside. Just unscrew the valve inside the stem, and screw on the fuel line (plug and play on NX system). Here's a pic I found in PLUMCRAZY's photos. In the lower left of the photo, see...

    Not bad for a ten year old car :)

    Just the other day in the Lowe's parking lot this guy runs up and starts drooling on the car and says, "Wow, I love what they've done to this new body style." They always look dumfounded when you tell them the age of our cars. I actually like the emblem you put up front. Is that the...

    For those with 1.7 RR's

    Re: For those with 1.7 RR\'s Good deal. Since Harlands' don't require milling, I figured I could get an answer here. I think 7.5 will work. With a newly-installed wet nitrous system, I figured roller rockers are the next step. Are they really THAT noisy at first? Oh, and A.R. would be...

    For those with 1.7 RR's

    Re: For those with 1.7 RR\'s Yes I've already read all of the threads pertaining to this issue. And NO, I suppose it wouldn't be the end of the world if I had to stop the project and order pushrods. Some of you A.R. folks out there will understand - I like to have all the parts on-hand when I...

    GTS Adjustable Ride Height

    I saw a slammed red rt/10 at VOI 9. It was running airbag.......and as a matter of fact I think the plate read "RIDELOW" or something like it. It just didn't look right to see a Viper sitting on the frame.

    For those with 1.7 RR's

    For those with 1.7 RR\'s What length pushrod did you use AND...what year car and what brand RR's? I'm thinking of installing the Harland Sharp roller rockers on my '98 GTS and need to know what length pushrods to get (thinking 7.4" or 7.5") I know some of you will say, "be safe and...

    S/C and VEC...Buy the add-on software? Best configurations?

    Maybe I missed something here, but the Vec 2/3 comes with all the software you need. There's no additional software you HAVE to buy. The included software will allow you to log settings and modify settings (although I leave that to Sean). It also comes with very detailed instruction/help...

    What to do with $2K?

    Buy a Vec 2 (or Vec 3) and Nitrous Express wet system. Install it yourself and you'll stay under 2k. You should be putting down about 600 hp and 800 ft/lbs torque (on 200 shot). I'm VERY satisfied with my VEC and the service I get with it at Roe Racing. Good luck! I wish I had your...

    Alignment with Eibachs??

    I don't know about specific specs, but you ABSOLUTELY need an alignment with Eibachs. Mine were WAY out of whack and I wore a set of tires out in no time. I bought the car post-lowering and assumed the algnment had been done. Wrong.......Tires are too expensive to not get an alignment...

    I have one sitting on my shelf I would LOVE to trade. Let me know if it's not already spoken for.

    Nitrous question

    Yep......I'm an idiot! The pins are numbered from #1 to #24 like you showed, but the bottom row goes 1,3,5,7,9, etc. and the top row goes 2,4,6,8,etc. So thinking I had pin 5 - I actually was tapped into pin 9. After fixing MY screwup, everything works like a champ. I need to find a dry day...
