Re: WOW.... VCA... WOW... JUST WOW... (super long post so get comfortable..
+1 We're glad you like the ipod...but keep your head down and be safe. We really got a kick out of the pics you sent...espec the "fangs" sign :2tu:
BTW..be sure to rub it in to your Vette buddies ( but not...
I've heard of this before on cars with hard usage over 30k miles. ..espec with high HP ( ie S/C) It may be internal..I don't know... I would ask the Wizard :2tu:
Good news...used tranny's are reasonably priced.
BTW...I wonder if the new tranny would fit?? ..sposed to be a HD trans.
Yep. bought and sold my Porsche on eBay and bought my Viper on eBay ( 1600 miles away and drove it home...from a private owner) and watches overseas.....(did you ever buy a watch sight unseen for $20K ????? I can't help it..I'm an eBay addict...always had good luck ( with a lot of prior research)
My wife says she'll help with the wrenching when the new blower gets here. :nana: ...Or did she say something about blowing the crank??? :confused: ..now I'm not sure ...anyho...she likes the Viper and is supportive ..so that is a good thing?? She is an excellent driver and has driven...
I can only offer my condolences...I too have lost a loved one. Time (and Lambo) will not necessarily heal this.
BTW...how much is the market for a 99 GTS nowadays? How many miles (smiles?) sold locally or eBay? we need input
+1 Intercity....proper enclosed shipping and familiar with low clearance supercars...familiar with Vipers. Local Porsche dealer uses them too for cars over $100,000.00 :2tu: :2tu:
Bonkers...thanks..you made me smile at the end of a rough day ( yes..I know about owning Porsches and Alfas...and I can add that the price of Porsche parts makes the Viper tax look not so bad )
Re: Before and After JM\'s Striker Heads - Not so creamy anymore!
and let's not forget...when adding weight to a car...you not only have to accelerate that mass....but also cornering and braking.....and a lot of the added mass of a blower is higher up ( why do you thind Porsche and BMW are...
Re: Before and After JM\'s Striker Heads - Not so creamy anymore!
You guys keep forgetting a HUGE bonus for going N/A.....ie. how much more weight over the front wheels ifn he had gone to a blower instead??? :shocked: :crazy:
The proper tool... or Pepboys tool... has 2 half moons that fit tightly arount the small metal hub ( around one inch in diamerter) so that the tool can effectively grip about 160 degrees (out of 180) around the entire lip so that high forces can be applied.....which many times is necessary :D...
This is very common. Go to PepBoy's and borrow a p/s puller for free...or buy one cheap at Harbor Frgt. Oil the snot out of the threads before use ( the threads of the puller!)
You will NEVER get the new puller back on ifn don't spend 5 min honing out the center of the new pulley with 400...
Don't get crazy, prolly just a bad sending unit. :crazy:
Easy enough to check out. If'n you got no bad noises ( tappets going clickity on ya) you are most likely ok. but...I wouldn't run it anymore until it gets checked out by a good mechanic...
Which is better? AEM or VEC II or VEC III? I've read some pros's and cons on the VEC II but not on the others.
Sorry if this has been recently discussed, I am having trouble with the search :o
I got the fabric for the bolster repair thanks to Flash Gordon and Plumcrazy . I'm gonna get this repair done. I got the material from Rodger at Tom's. Not a perfect match..but very close :)

BTW, I shaved the fuzzy looking seatbacks and lower door panels with electric...
