BUILDING THE WORLD'S FIRST DODGE DEMON TRUCK!

Part 1 || Use the code "LEE" to list your car for free on Private Auto bit.ly/PAgarage
I 'accidentally' bought an abandoned Dodge SRT10 Truck and 'acquired' a Dodge Demon engine, sooo...
Look, a 8.3l Dodge Viper engine in a Ram truck is cool and all, but it's not Demon engine cool.. So come along for the ride as we rip out this massive 10 Cylinder engine in favor of Supercharger noises and a LOT more room in the engine bay! After all, Dodge stuck a Hellcat engine in a truck and called it a TRX, we're just gonna do it better!
Have a wild Mopar build story of your own? Maybe you've bought a totaled Hellcat or Demon to turn into your dream car? Be sure to tell the story in the comments!

So the truck isn’t a unibody construction? So you’d use the frame on the truck, but for a unibody you’d use the pinch welds? I meant since it’s body on frame, you’d use the frame rails. Unibody: pinch welds

You guys really should put a hole in one of your forklift forks that you can drop a hitch ball in, lets you pull your trailers around plus it acts as a stop for when you use chains to move motors, makes for a nice little safety feature and can be pretty handy to boot.

[@jo-qp7mz]

Buddy did that it works great!

[@jamiehunter3211]

I was about to say the same. I worked at a Honda shop and had exactly that to move jetski's around. Plus lifting anything with a chain it keeps the chain from slipping off the end of a fork and having a really bad day.

[@Greg1096]

@jamiehunter3211 it gives you the ability to really yank motors out too when you dont have to worry about the motor catching on something little and the chain slipping off the fork.

This is insane! Swapping a Demon engine into a truck is such a cool idea, and seeing the whole process from buying the beat-up truck to getting the engine (barely) in is awesome. Can't wait to see how you guys tackle the tight fit on the driver's side header and all the other challenges that come with this build. Also, loving your positive attitude - 'dumb idea that worked out flawlessly' is the perfect way to describe this project so far! Keep it up!

[@prolificfinance]

I’ve always dreamed of having that truck. At first the idea of ripping out a viper engine sounded completely wack but after seeing the video it looks like what you’re doing is really awesome. 👏

[@marshallgerow3277]

Love the build. Just my opinion you should use some sort of bushing and or isolation mount for the transmission. Even if the engine was mounted with poly you will get a lot of vibration and could brake/crack the transmission from frame flex.

[@caseyc8603]

Shhhh I wanna see something break

[@rpturbo]

I'm really excited to see this build, and I'm not a huge Mopar guy. Ditch the brake booster, add Hydro, it will make SOOO much more room and have a better feeling on that truck. I swapped mine on my Twin Turbo LS, S10. You can probably bolt all the GM lines directly on.

[@aeroboozt9455]

[@Elmospiece]

I was working at dodge when these came out and at the time they were a blast. The owner bought one and let me PDI it and told me to go test it out 😂

[@jodybarrett8832]

BRO, you NEVER pick a truck up by the body....... Frame rails and shackle mounts only, unless you don't value your safety or the body mounts....

[@SanjitT]

This is a great video! Keep it up

[@jeovanicorro]

buy headers for 03-08 5.7 hemi they should bolt right up to the demon hemi and should clear the frame

[@gd1996]

Not a fan of removing a v10 from a srt10, but makes sense as it's now the perfect tow vehicle for the demon. You could go to a hydroboost from a 3rd gen cummins over the vacuum booster for brakes. I would have thought hemi mounts would have worked with the factory mounts on the frame.

[@elcentenario1]

Same here! I like the idea but personally i would have restored and upgraded the SRT10 and found another truck to build into the Demon truck. I am not crazy about the V10 sound but a couple turbos would change the note enough to make it more palatable.

[@jamesgarvey8402]

@@elcentenario1 I truly uncorked viper V10 sounds pretty cool. It takes some work. Fly cut the pistons, high flow, intake, manifold, delete the cats put on a course exhaust and some tuning and boy what a sound. Still sounds kind of trumpet on the high end, but that can chop is worth the price.

[@Redd-O_Live]

Gotta name this rebuild wild Bill when you say it together sounds like rebuild and that's exactly what you're gonna do lol

[@1012Mrjesse]

First off, always pick up the truck by the frame, that’s where all the structure is, lifting by the body will most likely result in it dropping on your head. Second, add some sort of rubber to that trans mount, hard mounting is never good, you always want flex especially in a truck application. Third, you can keep the leaf springs, especially for towing purposes, but highly suggest adding traction bars at the minimum. 4/5 link with coil springs would be the best application for the rear with what you plan, and has come factory on most 2013+ rams. Either way 4/5 link or even just traction bars will help minimize axle torquing/spinning away from the springs which can cause a lot of stress on the transmission, axle, and driveshaft.

[@Stellerex]

Drop the Viper engine into the NSX

[@joetelesto1907]

That body ram truck came from the factory with the 5.7 Hemi so I’d imagine you’d have no issues with using headers built for one. And could have probably used the motor mounts as well. I say this as you’ve probably already built the truck lol.

[@jaylonrutledge7501]

Can’t wait to see it up and running

[@toguro1009]

I hope the trans and the engine mounts get some lateral bracing or all that power could rip them apart. The lifting on the body seemed scary. Great vid!
