    I can only think of 1 other NA build that competes with this build. Nobody else has tried this combination and has impressed the top builders in the Viper community. Some people think I might be on drugs to say that this engine may reach 1K flywheel HP on a race gas tune with all the fine tuning and some modifications done but I think It's possible. The projected goal of this build was for 750 RWHP and to propel Jerry Miller's (Trainman) Dodge Ram Srt10 to beat a 10.82 in the 1/4 mile. My gut feeling (drug reference aside) with the right modifications and tweaking done the Srt10 will trap 140 plus. I know Jerry will be happy with 10.81 @ 134 MPH but as you can see I'm an optimist. If you don't agree with me then go eat one of Caveman's steaks.;)

    Here's the video shot by Jerry Miller.

    Haha, oh the irony...

    Looks great!

    We are in the middle of a project that is similar, but different application. It is still a "5/4/3" but different layout. Forced induction build, Gen-5 heads/Manifold, Gen-4/5 Front and accessory drive, Gen-4 valve and coil covers, and a Gen-3 block. It is a Pectel controlled DBW and CNP build however. The oiling system issue as discussed is fixed on our end by using our modified 4/5 fronts, which contain a 20% larger pump, along with a substantially improved gallery design/relief valve, etc.

    I won't be happy with a 10.81....I just need a 10.81 to win the bet with ArrestMeRed.....I want to beat # 3 on the Fastest 10 list which is 10.73....so I need a 10.72 or better. The potential now seems much better than the original goal of 700 rwhp (see the original dyno video at A&C Performance) and I think we will see much more than 700 rwhp, probably more than 750 (well more).:D:rock:

    When you guys are done with this pissing contest, I'll be happy to take one of these engines off your hands so I can actually put them to use. :D
