Capt Y,
Can't see your pics, I think it's because you are only a registered member....

Hey maybe it's time to start an "OSO Viper Club"

BTW, OSO Mods, thanks for letting this Thread stay in the gen. discussion area, I know it doesn't have anything to do with boating, but I think it is kinda boating related, because without the Dodge Viper engine, there would NOT be a Viper V-10 based ILMOR Marine

Gen III viper motors can suffer from oil starvation causing spun bearings, standard pistons have very little top ring land.
Does anyone know the differences between the automotive SRT v10 and the Ilmors?

Is there any pics available of an Ilmors internals.

I had already bookmarked this. This what the Capt Y did on hiys 2004

And the guy I bought if from, wouldn't even take it out in the spring, until the town ran the street sweeper on all the local streets and hi-ways.
Can't go wrong with Belangers. Also for the mufflers look into Corsa, seems Gen 3 and 4 guys are running them with good results.

Add some stripes that peel right off if you don't like them. It's cheap and easy, and if done right; can look really good.

Dean, you may be interested in the latest article on the new Viper from the New York Times.

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/17/au...omobiles&_r=1&

Funny excerpt from the article " It doesn’t matter that you think its exhaust note sounds like a rutting water buffalo, or that its proportions recall the Duocar driven by Ace and Gary, the ambiguously gay superheroes of “Saturday Night Live.” The record shows that the Viper is the second-fastest production car ever to run around Germany’s famed Nürburgring. And it took the $845,000 Porsche 918 Spyder to dethrone it."

SO,
Great article, thanks. We are going on our 1st cruise today, the rain has stopped here in FL. We are headed down to Sebastian Inlet state park, and then back to the Port of Canaveral for lunch, ~ 100 round trip all on A1A along the beach. Interested to see what my MPG's are !!!

Yeah they really are an excellent exhaust system. I picked up quite a bit of power. I don't have a before dyno but I'm currently pushing 460 RWHP, 503 RWTQ.

Are my pictures displaying now?
