Was i the only one that missed this car at the Socal gathering ?

Just Wishful thinking.....Happy good friday and have a great weekend...
But it sure does look good in between those fenders....lol

To tell you the truth i think it might be too much too handle ... i cant imagine how fast the 6.1 is more than the 5.7...not to mention a v10..

Where do I sign my life away for a SRT-10?

Is there enough room in the engine compartment for a 10-cylinder?
The devil is signing people up in my neighborhood next week. :rolleyes:
And yeah, look in the photo - that red thing between the fenders is what we're talking about. :D

Yeah. I see it, but it looked photo-chopped.

The spacing where the fan is supposed (missing?) to be looks really tight!

Looks like we'll have to wait for TommyZ to check out the measurements, etc...

31k -300c plus 10k Viper upgrade...= approx..41k of PURE driving pleasure
this might be my SEMA project for 2005...whattya think ?
You would NOT be able to keep people away from that car.
You could sell tickets.
You could sell the video.
You could, well, you get the idea.
THAT would make you FAMOUS!
Jay Leno would call (have you seen his '66 Riviera conversion?).
Dieter Zetsche would call. :cool:
Etc., etc...,.
IN a word - doit!

You can't go wrong with a Viper V-10 in anything. It's a relatively narrow engine so the between the fenders measurements shouldn't be a big problem. The snag is between the radiator and the firewall because the V-10 is so much longer than a V-8. It'd take bit of fabricating to "adjust" the firewall but anything is doable if you want it bad enough. Just bring a lot of cash. I believe it's over $15K just for the crate engine. Add a trans, rearend and computer upgrade to match the powerplant. Of course, you can look for a salvaged Viper or Ram...

Sure, step on our precious dreams.
Oh, the pain. Oh, the agony.
