Thanks, BYAIC.
As it seemed that the thread had moved more toward the white version, I wrongly assumed that others were primarily posting info for the white ones.
ALL data presented will help the folks putting together data bases.
BYAIC, just for clarification, would that a White Mamba with a plaque numbered 134/200...or, is that the last 3 digits of your White Mamba's VIN ?
Thanks for posting !!
"Six Blind Men and the Elephant
Once upon a time there were six blind men. They lived in a town in India. They thought they were very clever. One day an elephant came into the town. The blind men did not know what an elephant looked like but they could smell it and they could hear it. 'What is...
tednphx, Maurice Liang's book "Viper Buyer's Guide" also states that there were 200 White Mambas produced in 2004.

Still awaiting your call, Mat. Thought that you might have solved issue.
If it is a time difference situation, let say that the above mentioned phone is turned on at 6 AM Eastern Daylight Time(EDT...same as New York City)..and turned off at 9 PM EDT. I hope this helps.
Guys, Jeff's International Viper Registry shows that 200 white Mambas and 200 black Mambas were produced in 2004.

Document the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge. Sensors go bad...change as necessary. Whether or not you change sensor...you could easily change oil and filter. If the filter you used was not the Viper specific filter for your car (presuming it is a Gen III...part number. 05037836AB...NEVER...
In a nutshell, contact Dan Lesser (Viper Specialty) and he can fix you up with the whole set of gaskets as well as some very valuable general pointers along the way.
The crank damper bolt issue was real for potentially all 2004's. While on ANY Viper this bolt can loosen and cause crankshaft issues, this was a design issue that was eliminated in in 2005 by returning to the large diameter bolt that was torqued to 250 ft lbs instead of the rather punyv130 ft...
Congrats on your new Viper !!
Get to know the Viper slowly. Are the tires dates old or new? Status of ALL fluids? Has the plastic P/S pulley been changed to billit aluminum...hopefully along with the pump mounting bracket?
Has the timing chain cover gasket been changed? Do your door emergency...
First off, your new "dodge" sensors may or may not be compatible with your rudimentary TPM system. I have seen correct sensors furnished by Dodge dealer that were so old, they were dead.
The sensors for 2003 to 2006 and 2008 to 2010 Vipers are the same...and, need to be programmed to your Viper...
Guys, while I have no hands on experience with the suspension of 92, 93, or 94...there must be some differences among the GenI years judged by the parts catalog:
4643 1152 1992 w/Coil Spring 4709 0512 1993-95 w/Coil Spring 5012 650AA2 1993-95 (BUSHING...
The answer to your questions in order...yes, no, and unusually complex cooling system anatomy with 5 radiator hoses, 5 heater hoses, and thermostat at the rear of the engine. The good news is your year is slightly easier to manage than the 92, and early 93 models.
Once you understand the...
