HKS drag cars

I'll settle for changing the drive train and the wheels to help it steer.

Just a question, but what happens when you cram the Viper GTS-R V-10 and other internals in a Superbird?

 

[GT40 MKII]

I'll put it to you this way it could easily tear up ANY ford torino on the super speedways when they were used as stock cars.something a little bit crazier put that same motor and internals on a dodge challenger or plymouth 'cuda mod out the motor and drivetrain except the trans, L3 weight reduction and they both go like hell.

Good engine they put in the Viper. Is it still the same truck engine they first used?

The one in the GTS-R or the road cars cause the one in the GTS-r is a stock block v10 With a few other stock parts but from what I've heard is that the motor was designed by lambroghini to be used as a truck motor. Thats what i've heard. I'm not sure if it is all true If anyone out there knows for sure please clear the smoke. many would greatly appreciate it.

I heard it was just a truck engine that they designed a car around cause they couldn't fund designing a new engine. I don't know if it was desgined by Lambroghini or not.

I only know of one HKS car, and that is that old black and purple one you win when you win some race on test course. Excuse my vague details, but i haven't played gt2 in years!
Oh, by the way, the one car i know of is terrible

Hmm, I thought the Viper had the engine first, and then they just made the SRT-10 for kicks (and to compete with the Chevy Silverado SS).
Didn't know it was a truck engine first, and never heard the rumour that it was designed by Lamborghini.

 

[HYBRIDLVR]

That becaue the engine had nothing to do with a truck, It'a R26DETT 6 Cylinder Twin Turbo engine and Built by HKS, They don't build any V10's!!!

They're talking about the Viper engine, not the drag car engines

As far as the Viper engine being designed by Lamborghini for Chrysler, from what I know, it's true ... Chrysler owned Lamborghini from 1986 until 1994 ... Coincidently, the Viper concept was introduced in 1989 ... As far as the engine being developed for a truck, that's laughable at best since it was never used in anything but the Viper for like a decade until the SRT-10 was developed ... Besides that, why would you get a supercar company to make you a truck engine ?

Opps, My Bad! Sorry guy's!!!

I thought that the engine already existed so they desgined the Viper around the engine and didn't Lambi make trucks at 1 time? I may well be mistaken as this is only hear say and I haven't researched this. If I am wrong please feel free to tell me, but don't shoot me down in flames, I'm not writing this in stone.
