Still workin on it. Welding up an oil pan right new before reassembling the v10. I’ve also got to rework the coolant system. It’s the little things that take so much time.

27 Year Old VIPER Crate Engine Teardown - Operation Venomous Fish

Dealerships would mistakenly order an entire crate engine in 1996 due to the part number being 1 digit different than the viper red touch up paint haha

Finally opened up the V10. Those intake ports are MASSIVE! Dodge Viper Intake Manifold Removal

Right?!?! I’m really happy with it. Now I’ve just got to get that v10 installed!

Decided to call in some help on the firewall and trans tunnel. Coming along GREAT!

“Snake in a glass” would’ve made a pretty cool wheelie machine!

I decided to take the patch approach for a couple of reasons: 1. Having never done a T56 swap into one of these cars, I was following Silver Sport Transmission’s recommended approach. 2. I’m building the car in my home garage and am limited on tools. I wasn't quite sure if I’d be able to shape...

The Transmission tunnel is finally fabbed up. The firewall is next! The Viper powered fish is one step closer to shaking the streets.

T56 magnum is in position.

Front end is torn apart and the beast of an engine sees home for the first time!

Finally!!! The Cuda sits on its own suspension. Big moment for me as I’ve had the car on stands for over a year. Im absolutely loving the stance.

This looks amazing. First time I’ve ever seen a completed swap into an A body. Thank you for sharing the photos.

Thanks man. Gerst didn’t have mounts for the viper so, I’ll be fabricating my own.

Figured it was just too cool to not document. I’m swapping a Viper V10 into a ‘69 Barracuda. Deadline: Hot August Nights 2021

To add to the sweet ride... I had a custom air cleaner made out of stainless. Thanks to Bill Matheson for the custom art piece.

Sorry about the pictures. For some reason my phone uploads them on their side.

Every time I visit this site I get distracted so I forget to post pictures of the progress. Well here are a couple.

The 360 is just about built (waiting on parts in the mail) and the 727 is being built by by a member on this great forum (thanks again bad440). I can not WAIT to finally drive this bad boy!

Yeah I've heard really good things about Probe Industries from the chebby and ferb people so I decided to give them a shot. While balancing, my machinist was amazed at how much he had to take off the crank because of the lightweight pistons and rods (Scat I beams)

Most of the short block is put together. I hope these probe aluminum pistons performed as good as they look! Haha

Sorry I'm using my phone so I can't rotate them.

After lost of saving and time out to sea... It's engine time.

Well I've slowly started putting the parts back on. Here's a picture of the carpet install. I'm powder coating the rims and referbishing the grill as I wait for more funds. Thanks to Craigslist, I started with a cheap motorcycle helmet and traded my way up to a brand new mini starter, aluminum...

Wow, I didnt know there were this many of us A-body owners here in the bay. Im also going this weekend however, just to look. My Bcuda isnt driving yet.

Well, I'm made some pretty good progress within the last couple of months. I completely refurbished my dash, installed my windshield as well as my rear window. I bought brand new tires and had those installed and balanced. I bought two bride style racing seats. I'm currently fabbing up the...

I thought I recognized those rims and tires haha. where are you located in the central valley? Im currently restoring my 68 FB fish in hanford. Gotta love craigslist.
