V10 sounds like a UPS truck.

 

Depends on the year. They changed the firing order and they sound a lot better. Not sure what year they did that though.

 

The 510 hp. V10 in the Challenger is a Third Generation engine.

Here are the horsepower ratings from 1992 to 2017:

First Generation, 1992-1995- 400 hp.

Second Generation, 1996-2002- 450 hp.

Third Generation, 2003-2006- 510 hp.

Fourth Generation, 2008-2010- 600 hp.

Fifth Generation, 2013-2017- 640 hp.

 

I saw this appear days earlier - one post brought up a valid point - it would have been far easier to swap in a 392 engine - lighter and more powerful (cam and tuning) that the V10

someone probably did this for the "cool" factor of having a V10 like a concept vehicle had, but the reality is - trying to convert a CANBUS system to this engine and the fitment of intake and all the unfinished work.

while its been physically installed -- its only 50% done - the remainder is the hardest part.

On the other hand, converting a 7K mil SRT8 in a desirable B5 Blue color / M6 would probably do a lot better swapping back the 6.1 engine (or a 392)

 

Me? I'd stay away.

In the past I bought a few "unfinished projects" and found that they were more unfinished than projects. You are buying at the starting point where someone became frustrated and left off. Nobody quits at the easy part so you would be buying problems with little knowledge of the history.

 

I would not want this the expense and making it work will cost 3 to 4 times then what they are selling it for ...

Hey all! Well this should be a fun project, I have a fella that wants me to install a V10 drivetrain from a wrecked 05 SRT10 RAM into his 2009 Challenger. We are just compiling the required parts for the install, I don't think the truck's headers will fit LOL. Picking up the car, At the...

seems like a lot of money for a big project..i saw it too and as much as i like a project just kept clicking away.

 

Hard pass. That project is a trap.

 

Nope. It‘s neat but for what?

 

Just remember that the first 90% of the job takes 10% of the time/money, The other 10% takes the other 90%
