my enigne came out of a car that had only done 600 miles, on top of the price in the above link, it would need the ecu sorted to get round the imobalizer, that around 500 quid, or run after market, but for Ł per HP its not to bad, and they include the 6 speed t56 that people in america are running 1000hp though with no issues, the viper t56 is the highest rated t56 available of all the t56's

this has the later more powerful 8.3 gen 3 engine, and its been mapped, should give most the locals round the area a shock.

I discovered the very same thing with about 550 brake against Carls 1000 brake Viper at Fighting Torque 2009, and I still made 182.67 in a mile from standstill in 29.5 seconds, Carl did 199.9 in about 25 seconds lol

Fair play mate you've done a great job on that and I think perhaps not enough credits given to this beast.
When you think about it Ł7000 does get you a very reliable 600bhp with a 6 speed box which is just starting it's tuning potential.
I love it.

Yeah I dont know if they even offer an SRT10 anymore .. Think its been replaced with the new Hemi found in the high end Challanger / Charger ..
Ford still offer the V10 in there Superduty line (Got one in my work truck)

To be honest that's possibly the worst video I've ever seen! Lol. Get it finished and on the road and lets see some decent ones.

Maybe im getting old but the more i think, the better a modern V8 or V10 seems as a base for a high power car.
In real terms probably better on economy too I remember reading a kit car article about a ultima with chevy v8 power and at 400bhp that was still returning 25-30mpg on a steady long run using 95 ron and that was an ancient old chevy block, many of the newer v8's and bigger have more advanced fuelling and some even run on only 4 cylinders when not booting it. Where as a tuned cossie needs good quality fuel and once you get much over 350bhp you can kiss good bye to 30mpg on runs.

compare that to how much it would cost to get a genuine and acceptably reliable YB at that power level!!

u can get a ford modular v10, hasn't got the power of the dodge engine, but could make good power with some work.
long live the american v8/v10
