  • After our 2008 Dodge Viper sat idle in a dusty body shop for the past 9 months I figured it was the perfect time for a fresh Optima redtop battery, K&N air filter, and a bonus addition of a Doug Shelby Engineering air intake heat shield. This will help give the peace of mind knowing our newly finished gen 5 bumper converted Viper will be running in tip top shape.

    If you think that was a little difficult I have a Gen 5 and install the same DSE on my viper and with a clam shell hood it’s harder.

      Yeah the clam shell makes it looks more exotic but what a pain to work on anything! +1 for the gen 3 & 4 haha

      Thanks for watching! I’ve had good luck with the CTEK brand chargers. It comes with the connecting cords to run from the positive side of the battery and a negative ground. That portion stays on the car and it has a quick disconnect for easy plug in when the car sits.

    If don't drive your Viper much install a ground kill switch in the trunk to save the battery.

    Lose the Red top, they are nothing but trouble. Buy OEM instead.
