Tech Preview Of TECH PREVIEW OF THE 2OO8 DOMESTICS BY PAUL WEISSLER The buzzword for the new 2008 domestic offerings is infotainment, and its rapid integration into body electronics presents a number of challenges and questions for the independent repair shop.

    Contact: Amy Knight Todd Goyer Viper-Powered 2006 Dodge Ram SRT10 Is Fastest Pickup Truck In The World August 31, 2005, Auburn Hills, Mich. - Viper-Powered 2006 Dodge Ram SRT10 Is Fastest Pickup Truck In The World Ultimate pickup performance combined with either two- or five-passenger seating and towing capability SRT performance: 0-60 mph in mid-5-second range, 0-100-0 mph in mid-22-second range, 60-0 mph in approximately 135 feet Pickup truck aficionados like bragging rights. Having the best is what makes a pickup stand out from the crowd—whether it’s the most outrageous engine, the boldest styling, or the fastest elapsed time. What if there were a pickup truck that had all those things together—and more? There is. And it comes in two versions: The 2006 Dodge Ram SRT10 and 2006 Dodge Ram SRT10 Quad Cab™. With a new-for-2006 hydroformed, fully boxed frame and new interior and exterior designs, the Dodge Ram SRT10 combines the ultimate in performance with extraordinary convenience and utility. “We wanted to offer customers not only the boldest, baddest, fastest pickup truck in the world,” said Dan Knott, Director—Street and Racing Technology (SRT), Chrysler Group. “But also the boldest, baddest, fastest pickup truck with two rows of seating and towing capability. We now offer two choices of the most outrageous pickups ever offered.” Dodge Ram SRT10-Like a Viper With More Space One choice is the Dodge Ram SRT10—the best choice for the performance truck enthusiast who prefers a traditional cab and the ability to shift gears manually.

  • Computer Power”
    ”Computer Power” Introduction The content of this article is, as you might guess, not about computer performance but rather how engine power can be predicted through the use of engine simulation tools. Little of detailed information is available on power curves from later Velocette engines like Viper, Venom, Thruxton etc. True, some curves are published like the one in figure 1. However it looks like manually smoothed curves, rather than the rougher curves usually obtained from a dyno. Figure 1 Power-curves from Viper and Venom bottom left and right. (Source: D Quinlan) The claimed power output from the Venom engine varies from about 32 to 38 HP depending on year model, bike version (clubman- scrambler), where the scrambler is rated highest. The Thruxton with all its mods develops around 41 hp. (Ref: 1,2and3) But what was changed in the Venom engine to account for the variation in power? Different compression ratios, different carb model different exhaust system. Was this sufficient to create a 6 HP increase over the years/models? The Viper engine is claimed to develop 27 HP in all versions, even though early engines had a smaller carburetor and different camshaft (17/7) instead of 17/8 used on the later versions. These two very different cams should produce quite different power characteristic. Having access to simulation tools, the idea came up to run power simulations on Velocette engines. In the following it is explained how simulated power curves are obtained and the inputs which are needed. Limitations in the engine modeling will also be covered.

  • Drivetrain the V10 Viper Engine Delivered 90 Percent of Its Torque from 1500 to 5600 Rpm
    2005 Dodge SRT-10 Street & Racing Technology 950 Mile Survivor, Original Paint, Original Interior and Drive line including the original battery. The SRT-10 featured an 8.L-liter (Chrysler 8.3 L Viper V10) V10. This engine produced 500 bhp (373 kW; 507 PS) at 5,600 rpm and 525 lb ft (712 NM) of torque at 4,200 rpm The Dodge Ram SRT-10 is a sport pickup truck that was produced by American automaker Dodge in limited numbers. It was introduced at the January 2002 North American International Auto Show, but was not put into production until 2004. The Dodge Ram SRT was created by DaimlerChrysler's PVO (Performance Vehicle Operations) division, using Dodge Viper and Plymouth Prowler engineers. Extensive wind tunnel testing was used in styling the exterior of the Ram SRT-10. This is the second time that Dodge has put a Viper engine into a Ram pickup. At the 1996 Chicago Auto Show, Dodge introduced a concept Dodge Ram with a Viper Generation 2 engine, but it was not put into production. The Dodge Ram VTS was painted Banzai Blue with dual white skunk stripes, housed an 8.0 L (488 cid) V10, a six-speed Borg- Warner manual gearbox, and 17 in (432 mm) Viper GTS wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich 275/60- HR17 Comp T/A HR4 tires. The SRT-10 featured an 8.3 liter (Chrysler 8.3 L Viper V10) V10.[1] This engine produced 500 bhp (373 kW; 507 PS) at 5,600 rpm and 525 lb ft (712 NM) of torque at 4,200 rpm.

  • SRT VIPER POWERTRAIN Overview
    SRT VIPER POWERTRAIN Overview 2013 SRT Viper Powertrain OVERVIEW Chrysler Canada: New 2013 SRT® Viper V10 Engine Offers More Power, More Torque, Less Weight • 640 horsepower from 8.4-litre V10 helps provide a Viper-best power-to-weight ratio • 600 lb.-ft. of torque is highest rating for a naturally aspirated automotive engine in the world • With an all-new intake system, new pistons, exhaust valves, camshaft profile boasts lower mass and reduced rotating inertia • New intake system significantly improves air distribution across all 10 cylinders • New lightweight, aluminum flywheel for Viper powertrain for reduced rotating inertia • Revised, close-ratio transmission gearing and new final-drive ratio improves acceleration, provides quicker, smoother shifts with top-speed performance achieved in 6th gear At the heart and soul of the 2013 SRT® Viper is a hand-assembled 8.4-litre all-aluminum, V10 engine. The iconic V10 has been continuously upgraded over the years with improvements in oiling, airflow and an industry-first, single-cam variable-valve timing system. For 2013, the engine features a new ultra- high-flow, composite intake manifold for improved air distribution, new forged pistons, new lightweight, sodium-cooled exhaust valves and an aluminum flywheel. The engine also includes new exhaust catalysts to reduce backpressure. The result is a significant improvement of 40 lb.-ft. of torque and 40 horsepower with weight savings of more than 11 kilograms (25 pounds) for the fully dressed engine. Coupled to the more powerful engine is a Tremec TR6060 six-speed transmission that has been refined with tighter gear ratios and a shifter with reduced throws to maximize driver involvement, while effectively transferring power to the pavement.
