And we haven't even seen what the compression and cam specs are. There's probably some CNC heads on the horizon as well.
I know Mopar tried submitting a V-10 to NHRA previously and NHRA was not interested. My, what a difference a day makes!

There are V-10 Vipers legal in Stock. But I can't imagine this V-10 making the weight break in Stock, especially with the "OEM" "roll control".

i thought they quit making vipers last year,i have never seen a 2010.

Well I have held off posting because this sort screws up my idea of having the first V10 Viper in stock. Very disappointing for me.

This engine will be equipped with what is know as a "cam within a cam"

From Chrysler's post "Unique engine calibration"

Real time changes to lobe centers and duration and overlap by the on-board computer

I guess they have fixed the oiling issues the V10 has and figured out how to put some seat pressure on the valves

Move over boys there is a new sheriff in town

If you didn't like variable fuel adjustments during a run related to atmosphere and barometer - well now deal with - changing you cam with out turning a wrench as you go down the track

It is a brave new world

Finally technology has come to our sport

Wow...now what did I do with that spare $85k I had laying around?!? Looks like F/X to me.

My guess is that there will be FX classes in 2011.

Should be an a/sa or aa/sa car as well as super stock. We got one of those in a viper body already. Ran 9.20 @ 148. Course the glide will slow it down. I guess all you Chevrolet guys can go crazy now. Why don't you use your energy to solicit Chevrolet to get in the game and then yall would not have to complain. Problem solved. And Chad, 425 is too high. Who knows it might be a turkey.

Obvioustly not too crazy about this but at least they have the correct hood on the car!!

Of course, my bad Jeff. I just assumed that making a little over .8 hp/cid wasn't a problem.................apparently I over estimated the Chrysler engineering dept. lol

A Powerglide??? And the CJs are also available with a "C2" PG. The OEMs haven't produced any cars with less than a 4 speed auto for what-20+ years? Apparently they have too much power for a 3 speed?
Yet the pre 69 GM small block cars or 66 and older big blocks in stock don't get the option of changing to a 3 speed.... Hmmmm
