“What are the safety features on the viper?” Dodge: “Fear of Death.”

I have owned 3 vipers. The last one I installed a blower with lots of other work it made north of 840 hp. I sold it before it killed me .

“There’s no such thing as too much power, just not enough traction.” -Carroll Shelby

I think its absolutely insane that these 2000+ hp vipers are still running stock blocks

Just bought a Gen 3. Red, 2005 30k miles. Installed Full headers and exhaust - a short shifter, all the fluids, new tires and brakes. The power, handling, looks and sound turns heads everywhere. It is really a fun car and it’s an absolute rocket

Carrol Shelby's focus on making the car a bathtub powered by a nuke is what makes it so iconic. The original car is still unbelievably competitive with a VERY competent driver

Great ACCURATE information… sooo many people screw up the Lamborghini casting part! The rest was developed with Yamaha… also why does the viper community go crazy for the gen 2 cars 🤔.

Another very innovative and unique feature to the viper V 10 is the split cam shaft on the last generation. These movable cam within a cam allowed variable valve overlap along with valve timing. To my knowledge there is no other car that has that feature

The last Gen Will never gets old. They look timeless.

I use to work @ Viper I remember the warehouse being full of Gen 5s before the release date had to be 75-80 Vipers. GTS blue and Stryker Red. Still hard to believe they built this iconic supercar on Conner Ave in Detroit, Mi right in the middle of the hood.

The 2000+ engines can still be boosted, you just stop around 750rwhp. Concerning your Viper tax, that's pretty much the body itself. The engine parts are fairly inexpensive as long as you know how to shop. The older interiors weren't that bad. They didn't fall apart like C4 and C5 Corvettes did.

"Came with more amenities like AC and AiR bAgS." 💀 love it

Lots of good info. A few minor corrections…The gen 3 came in 2003 not 2002. The gen 1 cars made 465 ft lbs of tq not 450. Great video!

Bruh.. BRUHHHHHH! These breakdown are so good!!!! Highly digestible info, entertaining and packed full of History of these cars

"of the era Chrysler" makes so much sense, most of the interiors are gross across their lineup until mid '10s.

the viper always reminded my of an american 250 GTO. so nice from every angle

First time I saw a first generation do a launch on a red lights, my jaws literally fell to the grounds !!!! Never saw anything has violent as this, I know tires are really really wide and hook to the grounds, but never imagined it was gonna leave this effect in my brains, and remember this was before all electronics devices that make a beast easy to control, now with all this you could sit a chimp in a modern car and he would do a great 1/4 miles times, back then the car literally was fighting you like a mad bulls who didn’t want to play with you, my reaction has I saw it leave the corner street, it didn’t look like it was accelerating !? it looked has if it already had a swing ! Like it was already coming from, and not completely stopped, it gave me the impression has if a big fictional hand had just throw away the car, and my eyes didn’t catch and only saw from the car leaving the line. Very very impressed by this car back then. 😍😍😍

I dont see why people would want to boost such a beautiful engine. I think thats what makes these cars so special the fact that it is N/A.I feel the same way bout the 392 as well. Not everything need to be boosted IMO. Dope vid though bro !

1:23 Not available but most likely garbage” is a quote that should be on a t shirt

“Look at the dash a little too wrong and it’s gonna crack on you” That statement made me spit water as I LOLed

You should talk about the 4.3 L V6 it was in the fastest trucks / SUVs on the road for many years and they are 350 Chevy engines with 2 less cylinders!

Man!! Those GTS coupes look SOOOO damn good. Classic, sexy lines. Insane( but not really) how much power they can make when you combine huge displacement ( built engine) with boost pressure. Always loved the huge tires these have too..from the back the feel like the gen 1 GTS is perfection but if I had to own one I'd pick a gen 5 coupe all day.

I used to live down the road from the OG Hennessy Viper that was on the cover of Motor Trend. 1000hp naturally aspirated, the sound was actually scary. It didn't roar like the stock Viper. It screamed like a street bike. A V10 street bike.

I love how you break down all the engine spec through the years. You have a new subscriber in me. Love the channel.

How about do a video on the 1UZFE, that was originally designed for F1 racing with over a billion dollars of research put into it capable of putting a million miles on it without a rebuild and can take boost for days..👌

A vid about DAZA or the V10 lambo/audi engine would be nice

i got a ride in an ol school Viper GTS and ive never been so scared in my life!!! what a rush

I just found your channel and of course subscribed. I really enjoy these engine breakdowns. Kudos to your hard work.

one of your videos popped up on my recommended and I'm SOO glad it did!! You 10000% deserve more attention, the content you make is amazing.

Great and informative video! I've always been a fanboy of the early GTS models when I was growing up. Also didn't know it holds the manual production car record around the ring. Very cool. Thanks for posting 🤘

My grandpa has the car a few years back. Now he has his viper truck. A fine machine...

Awesome video as always my dude! It would be dope to see a video about the 5.2 & 5.9 magnum v8 that was in the second gen rams and of the era mopars. Another engine that would be awesome to see you do a video on would be the m156 mercedes 6.2L N/A v8 that was in alot of the amg 63 models around 2010ish. Thanks for making sick videos man, keep it up!

Would love to hear a breakdown of how my old TPI engine makes a ton of torque...or even why SBC was so great for so long

Thank you, your videos are awesome. Can you do a video on big straight 6 engines. Like the TB48 and 1FZ that would be dope. Keep up the good work💯

This gotta be one of my top favorite channels already!! Very informative! And im learnin so much thru these lil videos! Much respect 4 puttin out these truth bomb vids!!! 💪🏿💪🏿

Randomly found you and loved your content. Great info with fun delivery. Great job!

Just found the channel today, new sub here fellas. Liking these episodes of Explained.

We needed more cars like this. Making an engines and then modifying it for more and more power.

Best damn non-biased reviews and info I've ever heard or seen. I've learned more in the last couple of hours than in the last 10 years. I'm definitely subscribed. Cheers & hope y'all had a great fourth of Julie 😉.

What a great video! As a new engineer and long time gearhead, you had me captivated the whole time. Thank you!

Love the engine videos!💪🏽

6:30 The point about the piston ring gap from a NA engine is moot though. If you are going from NA to turbo you should be gapping the rings regardless. I don't think there is an NA motor you can slap a turbo and a ton of boost in and not have to worry about ring gap.

Always wanted a gen 2 GTS. FINALLY got one 2 years ago 😍

I love your content g, Keep the solid work. Im tuned in 💪🏽

Subbed bro, so straightforward and contains a lot of info! And it’s entertaining As heck Also have you done anything on Honda’s K motor or the F series in the S2K? If you have, I’d love if someone could link that or I’ll find it myself, thanks in advance!

My all time favorite car!!

Great video! Love you delivery style, pace, comments, jokes and pizzaz! Will be back for more videos! Great job man!

Engaging, well researched, informative and to the point. Fantastic, very satisfying to watch. Thank you :)

Viper engines from the factory are so conservative. They are awesome engines with amazing potential.

Great overview of the platform! I've been in the Viper community for many years now and it certainly is a select group of owners but I view that as a good thing. Also to note, shops like Calvo and Nth Moto have massaged upwards of 3K WHP out of the Gen5 blocks and Calvo is working on a billet block to shoot for the moon. Also shout out to my friend Ryan L of who's car was used in the Calvo Viper clips.

Knew it, thought that voice sounded familiar. Never knew you were on YT. Your short videos have always been very informative, but you really kick it up a notch when you make ur longer ones. Great work!

Dude these engine videos kick ass. Nice job!

This channel is going to blow up before you know it. The effort you put in really shows man!

Love the content!!!! Can we get a Honda K Series video? That would be awesome!!!!!

awesome video! I would want to see more videos on older engines like the chevy 350, ponitac 400, buick 455, Also maybe some japanese hero engines, 2j, rb, sr, kpower. Anyway keep up the amazing work!

Very educational and straight to the point! New subscriber, keep the vids coming man👍🏽👍🏽

You should do a Honda J-Series V6 video. We specialize in Honda Jseries Performance (HalferLand Performance) and have some videos of our 06' Accord Coupe 6spd making 550whp/460wtq on just 8psi. Even just at 550whp we have gone to finals and semi finals for Street Car Takeover verse Hellcat Red-eyes, Boosted Lambos etc . Stock form they can hold max 600whp and come with forged Cranks, forged Rods (forged to reduce mass not for strength, 600whp is the limit) and cast but stout pistons (some have made 600-800hp with them by just Tweeks to the ring gap, but we advise an upgrade for prolonged 500+ engines. We added our HalferLand Hyper/Semi forged Pistons, HalferLand 1000hp Rods, Stock J35a7 Block, Stock Crank and our custom Turbo kit...and now have over 40k miles on that setup with zero issues at 550whp. Theres some J's out there making well into the 1000's with stock block and crank. The engines also came in damn near everything Honda/Acura Released so their availability is too notch (CL, TL, TSX, MDX, Odyssey, Ridgeline, Accord, Pilot, etc

"Not available but nost likely garbage"😂😂😂 the best! In my opinion when you say america its always the viper! Dodge to this day rocking the "good ole raw vibes" big power engine and 0 traction boats or racing cars with bigger engines and a manual! Engine i would like to see you feature...(mercedes M104-nissan TB48-toyota 1and 3UZs - theres the big block chevy LS engine idk the name of but its a vortec 8.1 engine i would love to see it and theres the older classic hemi engines)

You’ll be at 100k soon! gZ man you deserve it🤙🏽

Dude I love your videos !!! Great content and so much detail. Keep up the good work.

one of the best american car ever! i not mind the interior is crap, love the simplicity, manual transmission, huge hp and torque and the noise

Viper tax is insane. Spent 8k already on it within 6 months

Please keep pumping out these episodes!!! Came from the bmw one and got hooked 🔥🔥

@1:10 “ not available but most likely garbage “ had me dead asf 🤣🤣

hey can u do the UR engine generations from toyota, because i only hear small talks about it, idk man those things rocks with superchargers and i want to know how they actually get that power number. It'll be interesting bet ya.

Some car guys: Tesla Plaid is the fastest ever car Guys that watch this video: Gotta buy a Viper.

Just found your channel recently. I like the in depth information about the cars.

Thank you for these videos. Always learning something new.

Talk about the AMG line up

A video about the VQ engines would be awesome 💯💯🔥

One of the best videos of the year !!!!

This is my new favorite car KZfaq channel you are clearly spoken accurate information that I can understand at a speed that I can absorb. Basically it’s ADHD approved. May not mean much to some people but I love carsAnd I love to learn about them but not every channel explains it well enough thank you

Thank you for reviewing my dream car. This is so awesome! 🔥🔥🔥

I used to race them, 2nd, 3rd, & 4th gen. They definitely require a high sense, high level of skill to even drive, let alone race.

Your killing it! Keep Therese videos coming!

These engine series rock. Do the f136 engines!

please talk about the 3.8l 3800 v6 used by Chevy/Buick/and Pontiac

Hey Sir, great channel. Love watching your videos. Keep up the great work!!

Your knowledge amazes me.. TY for your vids !

Awesome video man! Loved it.

Man these videos are getting REALLY good

Great voice for these kinds of reviews. Keep up the good work.

Awesome video! Awesome content! Subscribed.

what a legendary and beautiful piece of art. To this day, this and a 70 Chevelle SS are my fav cars.

Awesome video! Subscribed!

Hey 337 Speed. Great video! It would be awesome to see you do a video on the supercharged 3.0 litre V6 Audi used in the S4 between 2010 and 2016…it was super bullet proof and took to mods extremely well. Bit of a unicorn engine too!

Dope video bro - good job 👍🏻

I drive a 2017 Toyota Tundra. I put the Magnuson super charger on it and I’m getting around 600hp at the crank, around 450hp to the wheels. The engine is the 3ur-fe and it’s been shown to be capable of significant power even with stock internals and stock transmission. I love the sound with my trd pro exhaust. Would be nice to see a profile on that engine.

Very informative about the engine development, thank you.

This video is so well done! Thanks

04:07 I think that "Turbo hose" just came off :D

first time i watch one of ur vids love it man

Always appreciated these but being in Australia they are very very limited. I have the vw v10 tdi touareg and can appreciate the v10 and always looking of tips n options of science. Thanks

I was an SCCA volunteer. We did press events for the car manufacturers at Pocono. The different manufacturers would have their cars on hand so the journalists could determine which cars they wanted for road tests and articles on their magazines. The writers would take cars for a lap on both infield courses and on sections of the tri-oval It seemed like every time one the writers took the Viper out, the next radio call would be for a red flag and the flatbed to drag the Viper back to the pavement. Happened 3 years running in the early 90s. Everybody spun out those things. We would clap when someone made it all the way around a single lap.

The note about the non-viper v10 with “not available but most likely garbage” kills me😂

If your taking suggestions, do some more mustang stuff and you got my subscription!

I love this car and thank you for making this detailed informative video.

another great video I love the look on the viper owners face when you tell them they have a truck motor lol

Again, great content!! 👍🏽

I remember when my dad fixed a front end of a 96 Viper in early 2000's, the hood was $6,000. That always stuck with me because that was insane money for a domestic part.
