Picked up My Viper Today!!

Thin Man · August 22nd, 2003, 09:06 PM

Today at 4:30.... exactly 83,640 minutes after I dropped it off (that's about 8.5 weeks for someone NOT waiting to get their Viper back)............... I picked up my 1996 RT... with a fresh Arrow engine rebuild.

Drives just like it did when I dropped it off.... sans seeping head gaskets.

Now I just have to break it in.... and get it dynoed to see what he puts to the rear wheels!

This will be a fun 1,000 miles.........

Congrats on the fresh engine, I bet it was hard waiting those 8 weeks though, but at least it will be running better now.

Did they give you a Gen I or II re-build?

It was a full Arrow rebuild of a Gen I engine! And I made a mistake.... I dropped off at the dealer on June 16th.... so just shy of 10 weeks!

Ultimately... it was worth the wait.
