New Owner

[elevatedmind]

Hey everyone I never thought I would own one of these bad boys but now I do. I had a few questions that maybe you all can shed some light on. The truck I purchased has straight pipes and I wanted to add a Magnaflow muffler. Which set up will work out well? Also I'm having a bit of an issue shifting, is there a common issue with the clutch on these? I'm also going to change the oil in it. the truck has 10k on it and the oil looks clean but i don't know how long it had been sitting in there and I was going to use Motul. have any of you use this oil on your trucks? Sorry for the silly questions but I want to make sure the truck stay in perfect shape. Any advice you guys can give would be greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance

Very nice truck:congrats: Welcome to the VTCoA:rock:

Get rid of the stock shifter, upgrade the hydraulics and the clutch:burnout:

I like your screen name.... Let's see if you can live up to it....

The clutch hydraulics on these babies is a weak link.... I suggest you start with the Viper clutch hydraulics upgrade... Maybe even sheilding the clutchlines away from heat sources.... Our vendors JTS or JMB can hook you up with those... or even DC Performance ....

Welcome to the asylum.....
