Think it would be possible?

 

anything is possible with enough cash. they made a bike with a viper motor... you got to be able to fit it in a 3'rd gen. probley cost 40k though.

 

Tomahawk I believe is what it's called?

The actual Viper crate engine would be hard enough to get...

 

Yup i think that is it.. sick *** bike i heard they dont have real 0-60 times because no one can hold on long enough at wot. I would love to try. hehehe

 

Superglue your azz to the seat, that'll do it.

 

The real question should be "Why settle for a mere 450HP, and a transmission that can't handle even that?" rather than if it can be done. Of course it can be done. It's just so much easier to fit in a BBC and make some real HP and torque. You can buy a crate engine from GMPP, with a warranty, that makes way more power than a Dodge V-10, And the BBC is actually balanced, so the crank doesn't snap after a few hard runs.

 

I didn't see any of these the last time I was in Sacremento ( a few months ago), but there are quite a few around here:

 

Sounds like a great idea; good way to soak up that surplus of all those Viper engines you see just laying around going to waste because there aren't enough Vipers in the world to absorb them all.

Seriously, for the time trouble and expense of doing all that, you can spend a quarter as much of each, and get more power with some slightly less foreign motor.... a big block Chevy for example. Unless you either just happen to have one of those excess Viper motors cluttering the landscape everywhere, and a thirdgen missing a motor and trans, or you're just a dyed-in-the-wool Viper kind of guy and know nothing whatsoever about Chevrolet motors, there's a helluvalot more better ways to go fast than that.

 

The SRT engine is 500 NOT 450

And I can EASILY build a big block Chevy that will make 600-650 and will install in a Chevrolet for a fraction of the cost of buying all that stuff that doesn't fit without fighting some kind of a war.

 

with a welder, torch, and hammer. pretty much anything is possible.

oh yeah, and a big bank account.

 

hey vader is that a 350 in that bike?

 

Not only that, it's a ZZ4 in a bike...

 

they also make a 502 in that bike im sure the 572 isnt far behind...

 

the one in vader's pic is the big block. check out the valve covers and exhaust manifold/header.

 

Yep the 502 version. I'll build one someday.

 

Viper crates are only about $14,000 these days. Thats on par with the LS7 and 572 crate Hemi's. Now, could you go faster cheaper? Of course, but then that's not the point of a swap like this, is it?
