What would YOU put a Viper engine in?

So, the engine from the 90's Viper can now be attained for less than 9 grand. With that in mind, what would you all choose to put it in? (money no object, of course) Seems like these engines are *almost* attainable for the average Jalop who likes bad financial decisions. My vote goes for this:

With some sticky tires and Ridetech suspension, of course.

Link to the website, for anyone wondering. They have other cool stuff too. https://www.clevelandpap.com/shop/engine-packages/19863/

I think I’d keep it in the Chrysler family but still a tough decision.

Maybe Polara wagon

Desoto Airflow hotrod

Though if I extend it to FCA it would be hilarious in a Fiat 600 Multipla. For some reason Kinja doesn’t like that picture.

9 Grand for 400hp? I guess with a transmission it isn’t too bad but still there are much cheaper paths to power.

Apparently Kinja didn’t like my suggestion of a Fiat 600 Multipla and completely dropped it from the list. That alone means it must be the best idea.

Either that or Kinja has become self aware and realizes that would be both hilarious and perhaps suicidal.

Sadly the world is running out of TVR’s straight sixes (a racing engine not lasting the distance in a road car, shocking!) and well TVRs and Vipers have always been brothers from different mothers. So I’ll go with a Tuscan.

Seems like you’re paying mostly for the novelty/exclusivity of it, since you could do a really good LS/6 speed for 1/3 to maybe 1/2 the price.  It’s funny now to think they used 8 liters and 10 cylinders to ‘only’ make 400hp.

I’d put it in a Toyota MR2 if it would fit.

I would put it in a bike because that is so completely crazy that absolutely nobody would have done that before. Nobody.

The area under the curve is great but it’s a huge engine, it doesn’t rev high and it doesn’t sound good. Novelty indeed

If I want to die, I’d put it in a go kart. Or a golf cart. If I want to seriously injure myself, I’d put it in da mini. If I want to turn something into a drift machine, a brz
