    Remote clutch slave bleed

    Thanks proedge. I looked at that one and wondered. I have also looked into the Tick Performance QUICK install product. Almost went with the Tick as I like the fact that the fittings can be tightened from outside the bell housing if need be. Also like the rigid 90 degree elbow for the line at...

    Remote clutch slave bleed

    Has anyone installed one of the clutch bleed kits intended for C5 'Vettes with the T56 transmission? Looking to get one and put it in when I do the clutch and pressure plate.

    Help! Gen 1 engine coolant leak

    I would be inclined to carefully check the coolant hoses going into and out of the thermostat housing before removing or replacing anything. You may have warmed up the engine more than its been used to and partially unseated a hose, developed a pinhole leak or just exposed a slightly loose hose...

    1993 stereo head unit removal and install

    My 94 required removing the bezel that surrounds the head unit and HVAC controls, then removing 2 screws either side of the head unit and sliding it out.

    Questionalbe antifreeze leak

    Have you changed the coolant in the last few months? Mine did something like that, but on a level surface. Only happened the one time and it was in the month or so after I had drained the coolant for some work on the engine. It was after a fairly long drive and probable the first time it was...

    94 Viper Head Gasket repair / parts

    From what I was able to determine when I replaced mine the Cometic .051" gaskets part C5113-051 are the stock equivalent. Cometic sells thinner and thicker ones so if you were using non-stock pistons or determined something like squish area would be better optimized going thicker or thinner...

    Replacing valve stem seals

    It seems hard for me to believe there isnt already a topic on this in this forum... I am replacing the valve stem seals in my 94. The car doesnt have high mileage (<40K) but there is evidence of oil leaking past the stem seals after the car is parked, especially on the intake valves. Also...

    1993 interior door handle surrounds, I just purchased the door handle surrounds and they don’t want to latch on the interior trim. Any suggestions?

    I had the same issue with my '94. It appears in my case that the surface of the door cover that the trim piece seats against was a bit curved and the trim piece is flat on that surface. I couldnt get the tabs to slide in place without risking breaking them off - which is what was wrong with...

    Sourcing Obsolete Parts For Gen I and Gen II Vipers

    Gen 1 Clutch slave cylinder. There is a thread dedicated to this already, but as this is a sticky thread, it might be easier to find... A fairly recent post on one of the Facebook Viper groups and a thread here made the claim that the LUK LSC002B slave cylinder is the same (or at least a...

    New Owner Gen 1 - Kind of.

    My '94 has a snowflake where that little button on yours is located. I assume it is for the optional AC (I dont have AC).

    Are the side exhaust covers insulated from the factory?

    It wasnt immediately obvious to me that they were trimmed, but the metal should be easily cut by airplane shears / tin snips if needed.

    Are the side exhaust covers insulated from the factory?

    That makes sense. I took a look at the '05 and '06 parts catalogs and the heat shields drawn in the Exhaust section could be what I have. Found an image on a parts site. That is what mine look like. Thanks!

    Are the side exhaust covers insulated from the factory?

    Mine are different than the kit in the picture. The 2 differences are that mine dont wrap around the exhaust, they are formed then attached to the shape and curvature of the inside of the side covers, and the insulating material is sandwiched and encapsulated between 2 sheets of thin (maybe...

    Are the side exhaust covers insulated from the factory?

    My '94 has a pair of heat shields consisting of a white insulating blanket sandwiched between 2 layers of thin stainless steel that was installed on the backside of the side exhaust covers. Was this original or was it added somewhere along the way? The reason I ask is twofold. First, the...

    Front Chin bumper scraping problem

    My '94 had that problem in spades. It seems a previous owner put in shorter springs and I had very little front fascia and side exhaust cover clearance (4" or less to level ground) and I scraped on nearly everything that wasn't dead flat. Before I realized it was lowered I made up kevlar/epoxy...

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    Thanks, I think I am good. The new OEM drivers side mount was fine and works well. It is the passenger side replacement that has been the challenge. The original hasn't yet failed, but as rubber degrades over time it's probably not as intended. So I will likely modify the new one so it will fit...

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    I bought another mount from a Dodge dealers online parts sales through eBay. Received it yesterday. Exact same mount with the wrong lower side. It is shown with the correct (but different) pictures on their listing. So, I surmise that right now they are all made like this. Has anyone looked...

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    The stock mounting puts the fingers facing forward. That allows the 3-sided heat shield to follow the exhaust manifold which comes down to the rear of the mount. One of the issues with the lower side stud and pin being reversed is the fact that the upper side (which on the passenger side mount...

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    That last post of mine is probably a little hard to follow, but in this world of diminishing Viper parts supplies might still be useful to someone...assuming you can understand the problem I saw with the part I got. The first picture is of the "bottom" side of the mount I received. Note that it...

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    The replacements didnt go exactly to plan. First, From everything I can see, these are both OEM parts. Both the stick-on part labels and the number molded into each rubber block is correct. They dont look like knock-offs to my eye. The drivers side AB variant mount, other than one of the...

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    I installed the new motor mounts today as part of some deferred maintenance that includes new head gaskets. The old driver side mount was torn clear thru. The only obvious physical difference with the AB variants is that one of the studs is a bit longer.

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    The Woodhouse is a polyurethane mount, right? How does it compare to products like Reid and Viper Parts Rack?

    Stock motor mounts, Gen 1

    I know that a couple of the polyurethane aftermarket mounts go either side and I suspect this is because the steel safety overlap is internal to the mount, whereas the OEM rubber mount uses an external overlap and is mirror imaged for left/right. They might actually fit either place if one...
