Default Here's a twist...

I just was contacted by a Viper owner who is dropping a one-upped copy of my engine (EFI 385 Series Ford Big Block with a big centrifugal blower...) into his viper to replace his V10. He purchased a set of brackets and an intake elbow from me and is fabricating the rest from my plans. I modified the top plate on the blower bracket to allow the use of a larger procharger blower to help him meet his goals. He's planning on 1500hp.

And, when asked why he doesn't just build the V10, the response was "I've hated the way my Viper sounds since the day I bought it.". Wow.

So we're taking V10's and putting them in V8 cars...and they're doing the opposite. Crazy gear heads!
