Lpe542 Viper Gts 1 Of 8 Ever Built 770 Hp. on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
You are bidding on one of
eight known builds by LPE of a Gen II Viper.
This is most likely the last Gen II they built but you would need to confirm
with LPE. It is a Model year 2000 with 7100 miles on it as of this writing. I bought this car in
December 2012 and proceeded to put additional upgrades into it. The first and foremost is a PROEFI 128 system
installed by A&C Performance who is one of the premier Viper tuners in the
world. If you research the Viper
community you will see he his the guy on the west coast. With the PROEFI we added
traction control which makes the car much better in driving. Previously traction was an issue and even in
3rd or 4th gear you would loose the tires going up an off ramp. Now, it’s just solid full acceleration. The car drive great with this tune set up, doesn't get hot, and the air blows cold. But it is loud and it is fast. This is my 5th Viper I have owned. I'm getting to old to keep a car of this magnitude and plan on getting a more current daily driver, perhaps a HellCat which would be alot more tame. With the EFI Tune the car
pulled 674 RWHP Do the math, with drive-train loss that is about 770 crank HP. Here is a video from when
I picked it up from A&C http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7bR-7rHgyA Additional things
recently added are: New set of Michelin Pilot
tires. Trap door oil system to
the engine oil pan. MGW billet trim pieces
and gas cap (have original pieces still) Short shifter and knob
(have original pieces still) Billet PS bracket Billet steer rack
bushings Rear air diffusers Current upgraded HD
Unitrax half shafts. The engine work at LPE is as
follows: Engine
disassembly & inspection In addition, LPE
installed Penske fully adjustable shocks, RPM Stage VI Transmission, Brembo Big
Brake kit with floating rotors front and rear, new clutch, HD radiator, HRE
18/19 wheel set up. The car passed CA smog
when I bought it but currently has no cats so it won’t anymore therefore buyer is on
his own in that regard. The cats got hot with the dyno pulls and left a small
mark on the side sill. You can see it with the doors open but not so much when
they are closed. Picture attached. In
addition the PROEFI is piggybacked over the OEM computer so that window and
doorlocks work but the check engine light remains on. It can be deleted if needed but never was an
issue for me. If you read though the
forums you will find I am a track junkie. However, this car has not been on the
track. Primarily for two reasons. It is extra clean and I don’t want windshield
and paint chips. If I broke and engine, which I have done before in another
Viper, it would no longer be an LPE car as I’d have to go backwards (stock) on
the engine. This car is clean and it
runs great. The cam in it is huge. Todd spent hours on the tune to make it run
so good. http://www.lingenfelter.com/LPEforumfiles/showthread.php?1869-new-to-me-540-Viper&highlight=viper http://www.lingenfelter.com/engine-packages/dodge-viper-1999-2001

Chrysler recalling 280k Dodge Ram 1500 pickups over axle seizures
Fri, Dec 19 2014Following a June investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will be recalling 280,000 Dodge Ram pickups from model year 2005. The issue, NHTSA told The Detroit News, centered on a loose pinion nut, which could cause the rear axle to seize and, potentially, the driveshaft to detach. The affected vehicles were built between January of 2004 and August of 2005, while of the 280,000 trucks, only 257,000 were sold in the US market. According to The News, the recall will begin on February 13, and will see owners report to dealerships to have "a retention feature" added to the pinion nut.
I sold my Viper, but the memories I'll keep
Thu, 30 May 2013The following is written by auto industry veteran Tow Kowaleski. The words are his own, but the memories now belong to everyone thanks to his willingness to share. If you're an industry veteran with a story to share, contact us at tipsATautoblogDOTcom.
It became the flame that started the fire of belief in the next life of Chrysler.
I just sold a car. Nothing new. Millions do it every day. But my car was a 1995 Dodge Viper, so maybe it was a bit more unique since just 12,000 were built. And like others selling a car that's been a part of the family for close to 20 years, this was a confluence of emotions for me. I was sad to see it go, but happy to have the cash and one less big, shiny, under-utilized object in my life.
Highway To Hellcat: Dallas to Vegas with 2,000 HP
Thu, Jan 15 2015Fort Davis, TX. Early November. Late Sunday afternoon. The 1,200 residents of this small town are using their day of rest to quietly enjoy the breeze rolling off the hills. There's an older couple walking down the street, holding hands. A young lady working at a general store, where milkshakes and antacids are purchased at the same counter. It's a peaceful, quaint scene, right down to the tumbleweed rolling across the street and the rickety wooden porches outside the old storefronts. I hit the throttle of the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat while turning left onto the road leading toward the town square, sending the sedan's rear end swinging to the right with a few puffs of rubbery smoke. I coast down to the 25-mile-per-hour speed limit and spot the line of Challengers, Chargers, and Vipers in my rear-view mirror, the drivers all mimicking my quick jolt of enthusiasm before pulling up the reigns on their V8s and V10s and idling into Fort Davis. Our posse would roll some 5,000 horsepower of pure American muscle into that small Texas town that day. It was only the first stop on an epic journey that would take us from Dallas to Las Vegas, on a winding route down toward El Paso, up through New Mexico, Arizona, and finally north into Nevada, ending at the ritzy Palazzo casino and hotel on the Vegas strip. It was an opportunity to see parts of America I never knew existed, and a chance to bond with some American cars that until recently, I sort of failed to understand. And most importantly it was an opportunity to drive really, really hard. Charging Through Texas Unless you've driven across it, it's hard to understand the massive space that is Texas. In places, scanning 360 degrees of horizon reveals absolutely nothing. Nothing. On its own, driving from Dallas to El Paso covers some 630 miles. Veer south to Fort Davis and you'll add another 70 onto that, not including the 75-mile Davis Mountain Scenic Loop where I found bliss behind the wheel of this insanely powerful sedan. I always expected to like the Charger Hellcat – comfortable seating for four (five in a pinch), equipped with the latest tech, wrapped in a stylish yet muscular body, like a quarterback in a tux. And it moves. The supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat V8 pumps out 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, which makes for one quick sedan, especially considering its heft.
