Mopar revealed today at the 2011 SEMA Show the 800 horsepower V-10 Competition Series engine, part number P5155872 that is designed specifically for drag racing. According to the manufacturer, the engine is hand assembled and features an aluminum block with aluminum cylinder heads. Moreover, the V10 is capable of pulling 695 lb. ft. of torque with an operating range of up to 7,000 rpm.
Mopar says that this race-calibrated engine includes a forged steel crankshaft with forged steel connecting rods and forged aluminum pistons with a compression ratio of 12.5:1. The Competition Series engine comes with a JTEC controller with race calibration and engine harness. Although it was designed for drag racing, future applications include an off-road and road-race version.
“Enthusiasts looking to extract up to 150 more horsepower from their Gen III Dodge Viper can now bolt on a Performance Upgrade Kit, part number P5156137, to their stock V-10 engine. Each kit includes a pair of aluminum cylinder heads (machined to fit the Gen III block), a custom upper intake manifold with a larger throttle body, fuel rails and injectors. The stock engine controller will have to be re-flashed.” said the press release.
