These new trucks look pretty sweet. But, the air dams arent functional...that sucks. What are they running? It would be cool if they had LS1..but, anyone know #'s for them?
To keep it 3rd gen realated.....how would I do against one?

ok......did some digging...345 HP...380 TQ. Not bad #'s. but, I dont think thats enough to run with the lighting...or the new Rams.
But, I dont think things are looking good for my iroc.

In years past youd could get the V-10 in the dodge truck. Not quite viper power but same displacment none then less. The new GM trucks are in fact LS1's. There is a 4.8, 5.3, 5.7 (f-body and vette) and the 6.0. They have the same exact design with different internal sizes. In the 2001 and 2002 model years of the f-body LS1 the 6.0 truck cam was used in addition to the LS6 intake. I have heard nothing but horrible things about the new Hemi. It really isn't that special and I geuss a GM truck with the 6.0 can beat it pretty easily. This is what I have read so no flames please. Go to LS1.com and some hemi guys have seen the GM light and have crossed over. I have read about 4 or 5 stories where guys traded their new Hemi for a GM after a month of driving it.

ok first of all the v-10 in the dodge ram is the engine that inspired the viper engine and is very close to what a viper engine is. the new srt-10 truck will go 0-60 in 5.2 sec. and also the new hemi has better flowing head than the original the only reason its not as impressive is because it not a 426. and sorry if i come off as trying to tell you guys off im just stating the facts.

I think you have it backwards. The Viper got the engine long before the pickup did. Do some homework junior.

I was disappointed to learn that the hemi rams only ran like a 16.5- Truckin' Magazine. I would like to run one with my L03 because I ran a 16.3 last summer.

I just read in car and driver that the new SS trucks run 14.8 and you know that there times are always a little weaker than the cars actually run , they said a stock vette runs 13.1 so think you can expect mid 14's from a ss truck. Good luck.

Yea, mid to high 14's in that truck is about right. AWD, 345hp motor... i wish they would make the one they have a concept for. Its a standard cab silvarado, but with the same look of the air dams and dubs, but with a twist in the engine and drivetrain. It has a 395 hp 6.0 (think 6.0+LS6=Awesome), 6spd, and 3.73 for gears. its 2wd and it would put some distance on a lightning. Price range... 25-32k.
