[celica1036]

[Kuz]

yeah right. if the SRT-10 is only running 15s i really doubt that is also.

That truck may have a beast of a motor but you always have to consider the weight. If you double the hp on a truck, let's say 600HP, then you would see some more reasonable times...

its just that i work at a huge car dealership and when i drove em it was pretty damn badass, maybe it was just the torque i was feeling... felt faster than my car

My friend has an 86 Monte Carlo SS, and it's got lots of torque since it's a V8. It feels like it could kill my car off the line, but it's at least 8 seconds 0-60.

Hemis aren't THAT great.
They're comparable to LS1s, but the cars they stick 'em in are so damned heavy

[celica1036]

does anyone know for sure what they run stock? its rwd too,

[The Game]

Well since we're talkin about Hemis, how quick is the Durango since it has the Hemi? 14s/15s?

Have you guys even looked at the Dodge site?

500hp - 525ft lbs of torque

0-60mph in 5sec

The standard CORRECTED 1/4 mile times are 13.6 to 13.8 and usually around 105 or mph.

It's not a sportscar, but it is a sportTRUCK!

Sorry guys, I'm an idiot!

I just noticed that this wasn't for the SRT/10, but rather the Hemi.

I'm an idiot! :stupid:

So, is it cause the combustion chamber looks like a "hemisphere"? It doesn't seem that different to me other than the heads seem to have an exaggerated curvature... does it make that much of a difference? Thanks for the response Blue.

Yes, it makes a HUGE difference. What the design allows is a near perfect placement of the sparkplug (plugs in the case of the new hemis, they have two per cylinder) and it makes a nice swirl of the air fuel mixture creating more power during combustion. And I believe that the modern Hemi engine is making 345hp, not 300.

my friend has a new durango.. with HEMI & AWD.. it "feels" like it would beat my old celica GT-S from a STOP.. accelerates pretty quick and fast from the line..

I love that truck but it's too damn expensive.

[celica1036]

no, the srt10 truck runs that, the hemi runs low to mid 15's

SRT-10 = Ram w/ Viper engine = mid to high 13s
Hemi Ram = Ram w/ Hemi engine = low to mid 15s
