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!"

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