Here is the Ram SRT-10. They have been doing this for a few years now.....and they are a HOT truck. Took the world record from the Ford Lightning for the worlds fastest production truck.



Here is more info on the Jeep Liberty Diesel. Its euro engine.....not a bad one really...but they are haveing a time getting it EPA approved.....there is not one this year...but i believe the last year or two they got them into the US.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is available with a diesel.

I thought the "10" ment V-10..........?

Diesel-Dan

It does....

SRT-10 is the V-10

SRT-4 is the turbo'ed 4 banger Neon

SRT-6 is the hopped up 6 they stuck in the Crossfire.....

SRT-8 is the hot 8 banger Hemi they ran in the Chargers and 300C's....

Basicly a sport package.....like the Cobra Mustangs and such....

Confused...are all SRT Dodge RAMS... STR-10?
Is there a 10 and a Viper 10??

SRT-10 is the viper motor in the truck.
SRT-8 is the hemi

Diesel-Dan

OK......

The SRT-10 RAM is a Dodge Ram with an Alum block Viper engine. This is the Top Sport package that Dodge offers for the Ram pickup's. Like 500 HP!!

There is also a V-10 Ram (For HD applications), but this engine is an Iron Block. Power output is lower than the alum block version. (Heck...i dont even know if they still offer the cast iron block V-10...i know they did back in 03.....)

SRT is a Sport package. Like SVT for Ford (Special Vech. Team).

I am almost positive the two SRT's I raced just said STR on the body... but had Hemi badges on the front fenders!

This was really my original question. Sorry but still not aware that it has been answered.
Is there an SRT RAM Truck with a hemi?

Diesel-Dan

NO....i Dont believe they have a SRT Hemi truck......

Somebody needs to push me into just payin somebody to get this clutch in.... Really cheapest reputable place I have found is around $450... Man thats a steep rate... My first time doing one on the ground no lift and a broken trans jack took me right at 5 hours (and that's with an hour of fiddling with the dang stuck pilot bearing).... I imagine all would go faster with the correct tools.... Ugggg!

I need to order some oil, haven't made that decision either... Some have pointed me in the direction of Amsoil and some have said replace with what came in stock.... Apparently its a full synthetic. I dunno, either way it will be overfilled a quart again.

Also need to get a new rear output seal for the trans while everything is apart... Think it seeps just a little bit....

Diesel-Dan

Honestly......i hear that DD's are a pain to put in. AND i can tell you that im not a huge fan of pulling and installing NV-4500's from a mechanics point of view (AND 5600 are bigger). You are paying for the convenience and the skill of the person that is installing your clutch. It may seem high...but if its done right.....and quickly...i think that is not a bad deal. I would prob be in the area of 300-350 if I did one.

Just remember this Motto:

Cheap work is no good! Good work is not cheap!

RowJ

Well... Whatever they were, they were only running mid to high 90's (mph) in the 1/4 mile. The Viper SRT-10 must be quicker than that??

RJ

Diesel-Dan

WELL...its also not beyond someone to put SRT emblems on their truck to make it look faster than it is as well.....BUT i dont know what the Ram runs in the 1/4....ill see if i can find it.....

Did I miss something about another event in September?

I would say that 13+ second translates into high 90 MPH????

RJ,

I just called Bobby and had to leave a message. I was trying to get the info for RV spot reservation. I called Diamond W and they said to contact him.


Anyway, hopefully he will call me back shortly with info/pricing etc. Should be a fun event!
