    Those holes in the exhaust are pretty weird, wonder if they are intentionally made or what? I would fix them. I would also disable the skip shift solenoid in the transmission if it has been done already.

    94 Viper right sidepipe overheating and melting sill plate under door. Any ideas as to why this is occurring

    Common cause of a cat overheating is a faulty fuel injector dumping too much fuel.

    Do I actually need a tune (or a VEC1)?: 96 GTS heads/cam 511 whp (but then there's 675 nitrous)

    An interesting result of doing anything that results in more air flow (heads, cam, exhaust, etc) at wide open throttle is it will go leaner because the same fuel is being injected in spite of the additional air flow. It's running in open loop mode and just using a predefined fuel map. This will...

    At running temp, car acts like its in neutral, in any gear including reverse

    I'd try bleeding the clutch slave/master cylinder.

    Motor Mount time any Wisdom

    Don't know exactly what you've read, so hear are a couple things. You can replace the left side without removing the stock headers, don't know about yours. Right side either the oil pan or header needs to come off. To give wiggle room, remove shock crossover brace so the engine can be lifted...

    Also, be aware that since Viper is so low, race ramps don’t really get it up high enough to go under with a creeper.

    Tapping noise

    When you get that stethoscope, put it directly on the rocker bolts, it will isolate if it’s valve train

    Jacking points are the inverted angle iron, just behind the front tires and just in front of the rear tires. The first thing to do on the car is to eliminate the skip shift solenoid on the transmission. Either by just unplugging or adding one of these...

    Tapping noise

    Could be that driver side motor mount let go. The engine then rocks up when loaded causing the exhaust on the other side to hit something.

    Control Arm Bushing Up-Grade-...

    The rears can be done the same way, with the axle and place, just a little more challenging. Also, a good time to replace the lower shock bushings, mine were metal on metal.

    Gen3 differential units are notoriously bad, you might want to update the while in there.

    After 20 Years I Finally Got One

    Yeah, could be lack of friction modifier if the grrr only occurs during turns. Could also be a wheel bearing, I had one fail, and it was a constant grrr while in motion.

    Priming Motor that sat for 6 months. Did I screw up?

    If an engine was damaged every time it wouldn’t start because of an ignition problem there would be a huge amount of damaged engines out there, not just Viper . You’ll be fine.

    Leaking valve cover gasket, even after replaced?

    Those O-ring style gaskets are pretty good, I've had my valve cover off at least a half dozen times reusing the same gaskets. Sounds like maybe a crack developed in that area.

    Alternator? Low rev? Battery?

    Have you tried an OBD2 code reader to see if there are any pending codes?

    Alternator? Low rev? Battery?

    The voltage gauge should read ~14v while driving, less would indicate charging system issue.

    2006 VCA doors won’t open from outside

    Had this problem on my 03 after changing the battery. Putting a key in ignition and switching on and off fixed it.

    2016 ACR Wiper blades

    I've wondered if there is a Mercedes part that might work. They had some unique methods of attaching wiper blades during this era when Chrysler/Mercedes were merged.

    2016 ACR Wiper blades

    Looks like they about doubled in price since I bought the. Rockauto does have them for $112 each.
