HERE\'S HOW A HEMI VIPER GOES
For those that have not seen the race Hemi Viper for sale on the forum classifieds - here it is.
Bill Adams advises how the single carb Hemi goes "It has run 9.15 @
150 mph plus w/one four barrel no NOS. The engine is a
588 CI Hemi Indy Cylinder Head piece with a MOPAR
block, and a mild cam by drag race standards."
Viper and V10 are now part of each other - but this makes one realise how much potential there was had Chrysler used an all aluminum Hemi instead.
A crate Ray Barton EFI street sleeper 528 Hemi makes around 750hp - not bad for entry level. Anyone who has had the pleasure of driving or riding in a well sorted Hemi big block in a lightweight body will know the massive and addictive power that keeps going strong when other engines are well past their power band.
here's pics of the Hemi Viper - my first attempt to post a pic so hope it works
