Can you get it with the 10 speed? I think the main reason to get this over the GM crate engine has to be a modern 10 speed.

GM and Ford share the 10-Speed, but fuck that noise, put the TR-6060 behind this slut and drop it in a 32 roadster

443 cubic inches and 430 horsepower? Wtf is that a diesel or does it have a 2 barrel carb?
![]() 07/01/2020 at 17:48 |

I’m thinking this in something like a 60's Galaxie or Fair lane with a TR-6060 would be awesome.

This is the correct answer.

A
t 5,500 RPM with 10.5:1 compression (and 475 lb*ft at 4,000 RPM).
It’s a truck motor, for trucks.

With the proper usage of a sledge hammer and torch it’ll fit no problem.
![]() 07/01/2020 at 18:13 |

Yes.

It’s meant to be a diesel replacement for trucks, which means that it’s SUUUUUUUPER understressed. So, a hotter cam, long tube headers, some timing and a tune on this bitch would make a goddamn monster.

Why go through all that work? Just lift it 10 feet over the hood and drop it. It will not only go into the engine bay, it will push the old engine out of the way at the same time.

But then I don’t get to use the torch.

And with the stock bottom end being built like the diesel, you could slap a full on Mad Max W eiand blower and run all the boost

Eh. I’d prefer a ‘66 7 Litre Galaxie with the original 428 thankyouverymuch.
But for a non-7 Litre car, sure wtf not?

Well yeah, don’t replace the motor in a cool one. Bu y a 6-cylinder or SBF car and chuck this in. 500hp and fuel injected so it actually works.
![]() 07/01/2020 at 19:33 |

heh. yeah.
I keep reading puff-piece features about this and keep coming back to
“Why would I bother with this at $8K plus tax out the door... when the scrap yards are full of $10
00 8.1 L GM Vortecs with more torque, better tuning options and a butt-load of LS compatible parts bin parts to draw from???”
Makes like zero sense to me. I get the “grunt” thing, but c’mon!
![]() 07/01/2020 at 19:36 |
|
But why wouldn’t I just do that with a 8.1 L GM Vortec scrapyard motor? And save, like, $7500?
I feel like this motor was a sequel to a movie that Went Straight To DVD last time...
Of course that’s what I said about the now-deceased-already Dead Continental and the Six-Month Half-Life New Bronco.

Gen I Viper engine was straight out of truck, however...

I see this logic in this...
![]() 07/01/2020 at 20:45 |

No it wasn’t. The Viper V10 was developed with Lamborghini from the Magnum V8, the Ram V10 is entirely different

We generally agree, but there is nuance on the history on this one. These were all derived from the Chrysler L A family. The V10 variant was targeted for the 3/4 Ton and 1 Ton trucks... When they did the first Viper as a one-off, it was expedient to base the engine on the truck’s V10. This work all pre-dated the first 92 Viper
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_LA_engine
to wit:
8.0 L Magnum V10
As the design for the 5.2 L Magnum V8 was coming together in 1988, consideration was given to the design of a larger V10 iteration, mainly intended for use in Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups. This was to be Chrysler’s first 10-cylinder engine (before the ‘92 Viper, see below), and can best be understood as a 5.9 L V8 with two cylinders added. This 488 cu in (8.0 L) engine was based on a cast iron block, and was rated for 310 hp (231 kW) at 4,100 rpm and 450 lbft (610 Nm) at 2,400 rpm.[4] Bore and stroke was 4 in × 3.88 in (101.6 mm × 98.6 mm); compression ratio was 8.4:1; firing order was 1-10-9-4-3-6-5-8-7-2.[4] Valve covers were die cast magnesium (AZ91D alloy), rather than stamped steel; this lowered noise levels and made for better gasket sealing.
The 8.0 L Magnum V10 first became available in the 1994 model year Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, and it was the most powerful gasoline-burning engine then available in any passenger pickup truck. The engine lasted through the 2003 model year, after which it was discontinued.[1]

600hp with tweaks acc to R&T, but it’s a porker at 538lb.
Don’t plan on aggressive cornering I guess.

I mean, it’s an iron block motor, what do you expect. Whatever motor is coming out would be equally as heavy. The only way to save weight is to go with an aluminum LS or a Coyote.

I assumed so, but I’d think the heads would be alum to save a few lbs.
