Message: [QUOTE="DougRoost, post: 153551, member: 23019"] [b]Re: Viper V10[/b] I did know the early Viper prototype had the cast iron V10. And I'd have sworn from the car mags I read and Chrysler's own engine display at a car show that the iron truck and aluminum Viper V10 were based on the same design. I recall time being a factor and that being the decision. I could be wrong on this and you do sound like you've got the facts if that Viper engine was indeed done in Italy. It could also be that they decided on a V10 based on F1 but found it cheaper to base it on the existing truck engine. I'll have to go back and dig into this a little more since you've got me wondering now... [/QUOTE]
