Hey guys,

I just bought a 2000 Millenium Steel Gray GTS (silver stripes), bone stock with 6000 miles on it! A couple of questions:

1. What is the best oil filter to use?

<FONT COLOR="red">IMO, any major brand (Mopar, Purolator, Mobil 1, etc.)</FONT c>

2. I like Redline oil/fluids -- any negative opinions?

<FONT COLOR="red">The factory recommends Mobil 1. It ain't broken so ....</FONT c>

3. I'm going to run headers/no cats/catback. Do they have O2 simulators for the Viper, like the Vette and Camaro? What is the solution if not?

<FONT COLOR="red">Apex Motorsports has developed a fix that appears to solve the problem.</FONT c>

4. Does anyone make an affordable *cold-air* intake system?

<FONT COLOR="red">Dunno!</FONT c>

5. Any comments about the BTR NOS/Propane system, positive or negative?

<FONT COLOR="red">No experience.</FONT c>

6. What is considered the best aftermarket clutch assembly? Is changing the flywheel recommended too?

<FONT COLOR="red">Lots of stuff in the archives on this issue. The aluminum flywheel weighs considerably less than stock (only 18 lb.) and apparently allows the engine to rev quicker. I plan to install one this winter when I replace the clutch and pressure plate.</FONT c>


Thanks for your help in advance!
