Mustang Cobra and Viper V10: Marriage Made in Heaven?

least it aint a GM? wow your arrogant you must be american. as for the guy stating that vipers win GT cup races….yah back in the 90s bow they get stomped by AUDIs….DTM ALL THE WAY.

i agree with zac. its cool but atleast it aint a gm…..lol

and as for the twat stating a turboed v6 will own all….theres one turboed V6 out there an its not import yo stupid little bitch. its a buick grand national the GNX, sorry but your booest up little skyline wont really do to much against my dragster v8 thatll snap a 0-60time faster then you can say nissan skylines rule.

when was the last time a viper won a GT series cup race? so seriously shut the fuck up about the viper.

All you fuckin muscle junkies,using a ooooooooooo big v8,and v10 to make up for something that you dont have in your pants, a freakin turbo v6, can beat an humiliate your big motors while still looking good infront of you girlfriends and wifes lol, props to the guy with the stang and viper combo, but even combining all your muscle cars together still cant keep up with the import mods.

The reason they don’t use the Viper engines in drag cars is because there’s more moving parts to break, and the V8s have been in use for years. Most teams have their programs built around the V8s already. And as far as the Viper not being able to turn, why does it keep kicking ass in the GT series, without modification

FOR THE GUY WHO DIDNT PUT HIS NAME BUT SAYS ALL AMERICAN CARS SUCK LETS SEE HOW BENTLEY AND LAMBO ETC CHEAT YOU BENTLEY GT 6.0L 552HP V12 $175,990 ASTON MARTIN DB9 6.0L 450HP V12 $171,600 FERRARI 430 SCUDERIA 4.4L 430 V8 508HP $282,306 ……….VIPER SRT10 8.4L 600HP V10 $88,590 CHALLENGER SRT8 6.1L V8 425HP $39,820 PONTIAC G8 GXP 6.2L 415HP V8 $40,000 CADILLAC CTS-V 6.2L 556HP V8 CADILLAC STS 4.4L 469HP V8 $80,OO0 POINT IS YOU GET PLENTY OF CAR FOR YOUR MONEY YOU CAN BUY A CHALLENGER A G8 AND A STS FOR THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR A FERRARI 430 IF IM GOING TO PAY $200,000 FOR A CAR NOTHING SHOULD BE ABLE TO CATCH BUT ANOTHER $200,000 CAR SO DUDE SHUT UP OH THE STANG IS HOT LOL

Thats a beauty

hennessy venom 800tt even the 1000tt vs a corvette c6 zr1 hell even the c4 on the nurburgring….hands down the corvettes would win. the viper was shit an got made even shittier by adding more power to a chassis that was so badly designed it doesnt even wanna turn. anyone who praises a viper should fuck off like the viper will in 2011.

to eveyone here its not the size of the motor that counts, its how u use it, v10 v8 v6 all can acheive 1000horsepower, the viper is a friggen v10 and dats all the horsepower they got from it?? u give a jap or a german a v10 and see what they do to it , american cars suck every which way, except the vette..

yep, mopar is faster than cobra. excellant choice.

i love how all you idiots talk shit about the ford motors being a piece of shit. those 289/302/351 and others will last just as long as any other motor fuckin haters. and for all of you that think the fuckin v-10 is the best in the world its not cause if they were they’d be using them in funny cars,dragsters,nascar and all the other motorsports. the american v8 is the best PERIOD! and btw ima hardcore ford guy and i kind of like this swap its something a little different and atleast hes not fucking up a foxbody

Man look viper v10s are mean and get respect any were it goes ask hennessy the viper they have built is sick. Love the idea its good to see someone thinking out side the box.

typo should read WOULD

shaun your an idiot. go away. you just compared a turboed v10 to a v8…not very fair are we? why not go with some more comparable like oh iunno dodges hemi 6.1L vs the vette 6.0L one has 425hp the other 505hp. a turboed v10 vs lets say a supercharged v8 wouldnt get its ass stomped because of lag and no torque. so id rather a S/C 383 stroker or even a 572 CHEVROLET engine then some pathetic V-10 that needs so much bolt-ons to even be compared to a V8…like you said turbocharged v10 vs a chevy V8.

This is insane. awesome! wow that thing is going to have some serious HP. Terrific. I love to see things such as this done. And oh, kbevere. To answer your quesiton, “why not just buy a viper and save all that work” why not just buy a str-4 neon and not turbo something else. haha… some guys arnt affraid to get their hands dirty, and then again…. your OEM viper doesnt have Twin ball Bearings Ts!!!!!! This guy has mass huevos!!!

that is SWEET! i cant even imaine how fast that car would be

For all you who think that chevy is the only company that can make a good engine your and idiot. A turbocharged V-10 will blow the chevy V8’s out the water. I think its pretty cool that this guy is willing to put that much work into his mustang but I think I would have found A better year mustang to swap out. Hope the the car withstand the power of the viper big V-10 engine.

sorry about the double post

with the way the economy is going ford dodge chrysler and gm are all gonna be one company.. me personally i love mopars and i think ford motors are crappy.. but ford does make a nice stang.. so why not combine the two i think it is sick.. i would have chosen a different year stang to do it with like the new one or the notchback.. anyway people who argue back and forth on ford vs chevy vs dodge dont have anything better to do with their lives…

hey ford dodge and gm are all gonna be one company soon anyway with the way the economy is going.. but i still am a mopar fan and that is one sick ass stang… ford makes cool bodies but crappy motors.. so why not put a viper in a mustang… me personally if youre gonna do a viper in a mustang i would of done it in a new one or the 88-91 series notchbacks.. go viper

He must want to go really fast… he’s using Mo’power.

Oh, and I can prove it.

Steve, you can fit it in there. There’s a guy in Navarre, Florida that swaps in highly modified 2JZ-GTE engines in for about 17 grand. Takes about two weeks.

one word MOPAR!!!

one word MOPAR!!!

one word MOPAR!!!

hey mike if Chevy/GM motors are so shitty an fords an dodges are better why is it every motor basicly used in a top racing syndicate use CHEVROLET MOTORS? NASCAR uses the 350ci 5.7L V8 by you guessed it CHEV top fuel dragsters use 500+ci V8s from again you named them CHEVROLET….only time you see a mustang using its pissless bitch motor is autocross and other stupid pathetic events nobody gives a shit for.

yeah thats the only way you can get a mustang to go fast is to get another cars engine and put it in a mustang

a dodge viper v10 is rather pointless with its 2.25″ pistons….yah DO THE MATH youll sit its not really the best motor for choice after all….how many top ranked dragsters are vipers? like 1 an thats the MOPAR team car, other then thay you see none. why? they break to eaisly cause the design is shit the cylinder walls are to thin an the pistons are to small….yah sure its nice to say it has 500+hp an its not supercharged an can smoke this an that blah fucking blah …get your head out of your ass already. reason why the v10 has more power per buck then a 5.4L 32v V8 is because you guessed it the viper is a V-10 its 8.4Ls….so christ stop comparing motors an just let it rest that viper motors suck even though the numbers they produce should equal to amazment.

I love it, especially how hes going for crap in your pants horsepower

boooooooooooo

Show off of the year right there!

Better from a dodge sports car than a blasphemous chevrolet/GM part! I am a hard core ford junky and this is COOL as hell. It’s different from what most would have done (example: 460+ci motor swap) and at the same time no different than what drag racers do (Ford fiber body w/Chevy monster motor or Dodge Fiber Body w/Ford Blown Motor…) It’s the same concept.

Carson… What are you talking about. This motor pushes 500 hp N/A. Once he throws on that turbo he’ll be making far beyond that. If there’s a 3.0 Liter Ferrari V8 on the planet without serious modifications that can beat that, please find one and explain! Fact is, that Ford GT motor in all it’s glory makes 500 hp supercharged! This V-10 is not just a torque monster, it’ll pack some serious ponies!

Dude, Angry, I don’t think this guy’s going to get as much flack as your saying he will. Although yes, he’s throwing a “mopar” motor into his Ford, it’s a VIPER! It’s not like he’s throwing in a Chevy V8 or something. It’s an iconic V10 motor with loads of torque and most importantly, it’s probably never been done before. As a mustang enthusiast, I love this build and wish this dude the best of luck!

im an import guy but i must say to go throu all that work takes time and skill. Good job congrats on ur build

Size isint the most important thing. I recall a car made in the 1920’s with a V-16 engine that made only 200 hp. Sure, the torque was unimaginable, but till. All engine size determines is torque. And, well… how far you can push it. Im not hating on the Dodge Viper, but to me its all hype. There are 3.0 V-8s in Ferrari F-40’s that could smoke this thing. Why not go all out and get a Ford GT? 5.4 liter that makes about 500- 750 horsepower, and costs about as much as a loaded bently.

Regarding the 2JZ/S2000. If it’s been done, the transmission would have had to have been moved back quite a bit, as well as the dash. But I suppose it could have been done, if the driver didn’t mind sitting in a cramped space. And S2000 front isn’t ALL that big, and the F22C barely fits in there with room to spare. Like I said at first, I bet it couldn’t be done… But I change the rest of my statement… I bet it couldn’t be done WITHOUT alot of manipulation of metal.

why? just buy a Viper and skip all that work.

I remember a couple yrs back some guy dropped an aston martin v12 from a vanquish into his mustang. that was beautiful. This is insane!!. I love it!

back to the comment about the s2000 with a 2jz… it already has been done i seen it in a mag somewhere cuz all that power with that light body …

ha. pointless unless he spends thousands bracing the frame an building a 10+ point rollcage to harness the power. its a UNIBODY what good is all that power in something thatll twist like a pretzel?!

i give this man props to take it to this extreme and thats what makes everyones car diff from all the rest i wouldnt want to be the one who gets smoked by him haha great job everyone else dont hate cuz u didnt think of it first peace

To Steve, Have you even noticed how long a S2000 nose is? It is infact quite possible to fit a 2jz in there, and it has been done before. As for how much this throws of the weight of the near perfect 50/50 S2000, I don’t know. Cool swap if you want to go fast in a straigt line though…

What a waste, Ford does make a V10, it’s a 3V 6.8L engine that makes 362 hp and 457lbs of torque. There was a modified version fitted into a Mustang that opperated off of the older 2V SOHC 6.8L engine that ran off of a modified M-112 supercharger that made a ton of hp, but I don’t remember the specs.

In short, Fords V8s are too large and cumbersome to compare to the smaller displacement, higher reving V10s from Europe.

Wonder if this guy has a problem with elapids or somthing? As wrong as it is, this might be the true Super Snake!

Katakuna…. I doubt you could fit a 2JZ-GTE in the space of an F22C.

wait. does this mean i can’t have a Kicker amp with my JBL subs??

what about a Nova sub-frame on a ford pick-up truck??

if ford were to make a engine equally to the V10 viper engine im pretty sure the guy would drop it in.

the car is going to be bad ass period.
it takes a real craftsman to build such a monster and all the people talking crap probably can’t even install there own wiper blades.

It’s like putting a Supra engine in an S2000: It’s possible, but who really has the cash to do it?

its cool and everything but i kinda find it a disgrace to put a dodge engine in a ford

Mr BLANK NAME:

Nothing is wrong with the RB26DETT. I work with them EVERY DAY, and in my opinion, it is the best engine ever made, bar none.

I’m merely stating, it’s good this guy didn’t go the FAT F Tokyo Drift route, and drop an RB26DETT inside the bay.

Steve @ JDM Aero.

Regardless if it’s a smart idea or not you have to appreciate the craftsmenship involved here. It’s a HUGE undertaking, I can’t wait to see the actual numbers on paper.

your damn right buck, a Ford is just not worthy enough to have any Mopar parts near them

That is just wrong in so many ways!! That poor Mustang was molested! Chrysler parts should never be put anyplace near a Ford!

what is wrong with the rb26dett

thats a sick idea love the car good idea but a car isn’t a car without its own engine not a differant brand

well, I guess if he liked the look of the mustang, at least he was smart enough to put a good engine under the hood.

Better then an RB26DETT… Ugh.

Wow…insane.

the torque generated by a Viper V10 with twin T-76’s is going to rip that piece of crap SN94 chassis in half.

So he’s going from “found on road dead” to being found on road, outta gas? That is one crazy bastard by the way.
