RE: v12 in viper
What sort of V12 are we talking about here?
Also, why get rid of the perfectly good V10?
I had a 5.3 litre V12 in my old '79 Jaguar XJ12. That engine was a piece of junk. Burned oil like crazy and sucked back alot of gas for it's small size. She ended up blowing a rod, so I tossed a Ford 305 V8 in it instead (the switch was surprisingly easy) and sold it to some poor sucker. Last V12 I'd ever buy! In the words of Mr. Scott: "The more they overtake the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain!"

Jviper - I definately think you should keep the Viper V10... It has A LOT of potential. If you want more horses, look at some performance parts or professional kits and builders like Hennessey, etc...

That is like asking if you can replace the 429 in a Cobra with a V10, bad idea.

Why get rid of v10? More power and blow the doors off the corvette.
