I did not read up on it, is a manual gearbox even offered??
From the
Car and Driver Link at the beginning of this thread:
" Grunt gets channeled through either the Tremec TR6060 six-speed manual or a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic, and it is then routed to the rear wheels via an uprated driveshaft, axles, and a rear differential with additional cooling. "
in that same article, as they are comparing HP#'s to the GT500(+45)and the Camaro ZL1 (+127), they said this:"and—in what may be viewed as an act of sacrilege by some—67 more hp than the V-10 in the current Viper. "
but remember, This engine is Blown, while the Viper V10 is NA.
