engine that came out was was running gt35/82r 850cc seimans, and rolling roaded at 541.2 but here is an earlier video showing 501.8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDCCXZ18lsg
but the viper engine will be different and no lag with 600lb/ft from about 1500 rpm

bj928

no it was just a base 1.6 shell, but its been inch welded and has full race cage, wouldn't cut up a genuine shell, not that mad

kit is going even more radical, 5.4 supercharged race engine, 4wd and 1000hp at the wheels, so yes was impressive, but going to be impressive to a hole new level.

bj928

sorry i didn't log in with you and ask permission, but i wanted to see if it fitted and how things would go before i said anything.

bj928

see how it goes, because it will be a totally different type of power to a cossie, will have to see how things go.

Make sure you get a vid of first Start-up

A viper engine in a Sierra 3-door shell should not have big problems reaching 200, the Sierra has a drag coefficient of ca. 0.34 (or 0.32 in Xr4i trim) and the Viper manages 190 with a drag coefficient of 0.400
Cool project btw
And yes, the whole world is waiting for pics and vids

video of engine when it was wired to run in the kit car for a show

volume up

bj928

this engine is a gen3 engine and came from the 195 mph viper, and it pulls 175 to 195 in 6th gear which is a .5 ratio gear, now that is what you call torque

each cylinder is 830 cc, so just over 2 cylinders is the same cc as a cossie 4 pot

bj928

the shell was a cossied up shell, full race roll cage and cossie running gear, whale tail, so it will look like a cossie going down the road,

one of these engine and box setups from america will set you back with the new ECU about Ł7.5k, don't know what power its running but its factory power was 505hp, 525lb/ft, but its now not running a cat, A/C or power steering (going to be heavy), and the ECU has been mapped to off road use, so it could be nudging 600hp and 600lb/ft, with 90% of its torque from 1500rpm (get in, shut up and hold tight)

Looks an amazing project mate,well done.can't beat cc's for big,reliable power!

yep, it gets its power from its size, its about as advanced as a 1.6 crossflow, but 5 times bigger with fuel injection.
