Dodge SECRET Hemi Projects Stellantis CANCELLED

Stellantis needs to hire a few of y'all popular KZbinrs because I can't understand how nobody that's works for this company wouldn't see a couple of these ideas and put them into production especially a Chrysler 300 hellcat

[@BackyardClunkers77]

If the brand brought back Plymouth: A modern day A-body styling influenced Fastback Cuda with the hatchback incorporated into it, plus a E-body designed retro look as two more variants of the Cuda- a hardtop & a convertible. Like how Ford made the newer Bronco it's own different model brand, but dodge do this with the barracuda/ Cuda. This could be the "mid-sized muscle cars", while the "Plymouth Piranha" could be the compact "little brother" to the cudas: a 2door, 4door, & 2door convertible 4 seater compact sporty Sedans to compete with the Honda civics, Toyota corollas, Subaru imprezas, ect. Make the highest trim level of the Piranha an AWD, supercharged V6 animal. Create a "Plymouth Sundance"- create this as a "Baby Viper"/ the size & theme like the Honda S2000, the Mazda Miatas, newer Toyota supras, BRZ, ect... long-ish hood line, 2door, 2seater, convertible FUN sports car, REAR WHEEL DRIVE, & MANUAL TRANSMISSION options. The Chrysler variant of this "Sundance" could be a resurrected: Chrysler Crossfire. I got a bunch of new styles of vehicles & ideas the Mopar company could build & would be successful.

@@BackyardClunkers77 I like the way you think! They could also introduce a lineup of sports cars with engines from every category, hybrids and EVs included.

They could literally make any engine they want in a lineup like that

[@brucekenkel3688]

as a long time Viper owner (current 09 ACR). Purists know the Viper as a mid engine, v10 6 spd sports car. If you want to bring it back with other variants, just change the name to let’s say Mamba and do whatever engine and transmission combo that is a track monster.

[@BackyardClunkers77]

I like that- The Dodge Momba: a Mopar rear engine exotic super car. 🤟

[@bobman717]

Viper with a Hellcat and transaxle would have been amazing

[@BackyardClunkers77]

@bobman717 it would be seni-easy to take the V8 hemi "hellcat" motor: add two more cylinders/ expanding the valvetrain, ect & create a wicked "V10 Supercharged Hemi. At that point- just the additional two more cylinders to the 5.7, 6.1, 6.2, 6.4 styling engines it wouldn't need a supercharger. But being for the Viper- I think they could've & Should've made the exception. Imagine the raw power of a 6th gen Viper with a hellcat hemi that had the 2 extra cylinders.

[@BackyardClunkers77]

@brucekenkel3688 they said "no more V8s, they didn't say: no more V10's.." 🤔😂🤟😈🤟

[@fadedsoul23]

@@BackyardClunkers77you would also have to lengthen the blower, I think a properly sized blower meant for a v10 will flow more air than a blower meant for a v8 that’s adapted to fit a v10. If someone has the knowledge to prove me right or wrong, feel free to do so, I’d be curious to learn about it properly. But to me it makes sense that 8 intake ports splitting into 10, air distribution would likely be uneven.

[@timford4874]

Would be dope to see the viper make a return but with a good drivetrain, no bs keep it traditional with the v10 or better and with a manual.

[@freshoffthetruck]

Hey this was one of the best videos about Dodge I’ve seen in a while I miss these type of videos. No one likes the direction the company is going but there was no hate in the video.

[@WesM757]

The viper is ONLY V10!!.. put a hemi in it and call it the COPPERHEAD! Sell both the viper is the premium, and the copperhead will compete against the future Gt500s and corvettes. The viper will be going against the GT3 RS. Dodge brings back the neon (Dodge attitude made in Mexico) and makes an SRT-4. Dodge needs to sell small cars so that the government can get off their backs. If their hybrid programs aren't top notch. Dont make unreliable cars. Make a good 4,6,8, and 10 cylinder cars. Simple and reliable

[@redhunnid5142]

All they got to do is copy old Toyota and Honda tech when it comes to their 4 cylinders K24 and 2.4L 2AZ-FE then twin turbo the engines and for the V6 use Jeeps old 4.0 inline 6 and twin turbo that engine for low boost small turbos it was the most reliable inline 6 Jeep ever made the only reason they stopped maki g it was because of government regulations saying it hurts the environment same reason why they are pushing EVs so much now

[@fadedsoul23]

And some five cylinders too! That’d be cool imo

[@fadedsoul23]

I also would like to see diesel performance cars

[@WesM757]

@redhunnid5142 I wanted Nissan (hopefully Honda buys them) to do with the K series motors. If Nissan could buy the patent designs from Honda. Then Nissan could make a killer , 240 "Silvia", SE-R & SR spec Sentra and Altima. Both have an fwd and awd turbo K24 with a manual!

[@WesM757]

@fadedsoul23 I wish for Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler that they will have one of each. Turbo 4. NA 6 and Turbo 6 (V or Inline). Hemi V8 (different displacement ), but all the same parts. They need to simplify so that the prices of these car parts can be cheap and mass produced. Like Honda with the B,K series motors.

[@JayB-v6q]

not making a factory challenger convertible was a huge missed opportunity

[@davidallen-d3c]

As someone who works at a dodge dealership I would love to see them bring back a mid engine viper and maybe like you said make 3 trims of it with 3 different power levels snd I’ve been saying that for years to compete with the corvettes and i said way before the zr1 that is going to be a monster was announced

[@yodaevil]

As for the awd, dodge could of easily done it. I have a awd rt charger and the challengers have the awd v6’s. Now I know they are different sizes, but you telling me a company who decides that the hellcat goes in everything when for shits and giggles couldn’t make it happen? Junkyard Dave took a charger, made it in to a magnum and put the trackhawk drivetrain in it and he’s doing it in has garage. And these guys doing it aren’t a company with their resources. Comes down to sales. Would put the Jeep and Durango and trx on the no one wants list. That’s a lot of r&d lost.

[@YellowFellow86]

I do agree sir that we should have gotten a Viper over the MC-20. My question is should Dodge try to continue to compete with the Vette given that in sales the Vette I believe has always done better than the Viper? I think the Viper needs 10 cylinders or more, stick shift, and a automatic option. In the current market if its priced not much more than the Dark horse and can trounce it in performance will that be a better target to aim for? If they put a V8 in it I think it should be named something else? Like the old Chrysler Firepower concept 😅 Great vid 🙏

[@khaosking2937]

A Viper "Hades" would have been insane. Twin Turbo V10 with something like 1100hp and over 1000lbs of torque. 6 speed manuel.

[@MOPAR_KING337]

Hell yeah would get a viper

[@ItsPinecone_911]

I wish they had made the Demons in Charger form as well. Also I 100% agree about Vipers over the Vetts and yes if they went with the V8 Helliphant over the traditional V10 and kept it looking like a Viper but mid engined I think itd sell like wildfire!

[@fortheloveofnoise]

#6 A new Omni

[@meissiah]

Yes, people will complain about a Helliphant (or anything other than a V-10) in the Viper. The V-10 is an essential part of the Viper equation. Now, if there was a Chrysler variant (like the Firepower Concept), that can have a V8. Also, manual transmission only for the Viper. The Chrysler variant can have a DCT.

[@crackthemac7003]

A mid engine viper with a V12 NA. However, if they decide to use a HEMI then a mid engine flat crank hemi (if possible) with twin turbos

[@crackthemac7003]

Or an upgraded of the Current V10 engine with a twin turbo or supercharged or with electric motor

[@fadedsoul23]

FPC hemi would be nice, so would a v12, especially if it’s odd firing. But neither should be called viper. Maybe a different snake. But they’d be cool, that’s for sure. An FPC hemi would need a GT350 voodoo style crankshaft and some 4-3-1 headers and/or an x pipe or something to keep the American rumble

[@WoolfJ35]

Ferrari isn't a part of Stellantis and they would in no way share an engine with Dodge, they were one of the reason why the Viper was killed off if I remember correctly. Also the new Viper in my opinion would need to have a flat-plane V10 to be a decent seller, if it did it would be the only mass market V10 left so it'll be in it's own category. Otherwise it'll suffer in sales like it did in the previous gens.

[@ChretienLove]

as someone that is interested in a charger hellcat widebody, i did see a build on the dodge page that showed a charger hellcat widebody race car created by road racing. it had viper rotors and a large wing similar to the challenger you mentioned. if dodge made the challenger acr, do you all think that dodge would have made a charger acr model? kind of similar to what bmw did with the M5 CS?

Viper must be a V10! 16:35 Midship Viper V10 using alloy monocoque to lower the price of production. 18:48 Or INSTEAD… revision Gen5 Viper made wider to allow the engine to sit further behind the front axle using SC V8 but call an Adda or SideWinder!!!

​@fadedsoul23 one beautiful thing about forced induction- the irregular length ports don't matter as much as -say a naturally aspirated engine. Although ideally: even length runners would be more sufficient. The Chrysler 170, 198, & 225 slant six engines had one of the most irregular styled engine & still was reliable. The "down side" to the slant 6's was the government mandated emissions & that louzey cylinder head. The non-Cross-flow head really hindered the slant six's power output. You give a bunch of gearheads & hotrodders the machines & softwares to create a badazz engine- anything is possible.

You do know the Category X Hurricane makes over 1000hp right? And right at 1500 for the drag pack hurricane set up I’ve been reading about? The only thing that needs serious attention on the hurricane is that exhaust note. And why no love for a 300 hellcat variant?

[@AE86FTS]

Maybe instead of Demon 170 Charger, they could have taken the Demon 170 engine and used that to make a Charger that has the highest top speed possible. The Charger has a higher top speed than the Challenger due to being more aerodynamic, so that would justify it being a Charger instead of a Challenger.

My guess is the Challenger ACR would have also built of the same carbon fiber frame they sell now, so maximize profits and keep them coming back.

Dodge can afford to bring back the Viper, if Chevy can nake and sell the new ZR1 than why couldn't dodge do the same 🤷 make a direct competitor to the ZR1, do a mid engine twin turbo Viper but keep it a V10 and knowing Dodge they'd probably up the power to something crazy like 1300hp lol

Why not give the viper a remixed v10 with hellcat DNA. Blown V10 ftw.

[@fadedsoul23]

That’d be awesome! The supercharger would have to lengthened though. Longer housing and rotors. I don’t think 8 intake ports splitting into 10 will feed the engine with air very well. I think a supercharger specifically for the v10 would flow more air than a supercharger meant for a v8 that’s adapted to a v10. Just my thoughts, I have no clue how true that might be

@ I get what you’re saying, and I agree with it 1000000000%, I’m just saying the blower needs to be sized up for it

[@marcusjohnson5839]

Ownership which actually cares about the brand. Dodge failed the Viper’s legacy by not making an effort much less fully dedicated towards being the first sub 7min American production car around the ring. Leaving it up to a crowd sourced effort and limited days was pathetic on Dodge’s end given the purpose of the fifth gen Viper ACR-E. Car was capable long before any GTD Mustang. 6th Gen would have to compete with the new ZR1, track wise why aim for the GT3RS when there’s a GT2RS. Challenger and Charger were long overdue for a new chassis. The recipe of throw more power at an overweight car was only going to get so far. So a ACR Challenger or more appropriately T/A edition would have benefited more from a new chassis and loose weight. Something to compete with the 1LE’s or GT-350’s around turns given the Viper was the last car they made that could hold its own on things over than a straight line or burnouts. Bring back or find new engineers who have a passion for building exciting/fun/driver rewarding vehicles. Build vehicles that bring back a meaning to “Mopar or no car”. The passion has left, the vehicles represent it, the consumers are stuck with what use to be or move on to something else.

[@fadedsoul23]

I want a new mid engine viper but it has to be a v10. I don’t care if they downsize it to 5L or so and up the revs or figure out a way to make more power (Lamborghini 5.2L v10s made up 640hp, which is 5hp shy of the viper that had an 8.4L v10). But I had to be a v10 of some sort. They can make a 2.5L hurricane based single turbo i5 for a different car (maybe stuff it in the hornet for an SRT5 model) and then smash two together for a 5L TT v10. If tuned right, I bet it’ll blow past 645hp of the previous viper. Could also collaborate with Ferrari and make an F154 based TT v10 or F136 based NA v10. If they were to do a non v10 midengine car, I wouldn’t call it a viper. I’d love to see it but I wouldn’t call it a viper

[@flythepro9713]

If dodge REALLY wanna make a comeback.. re-release the challenger (still a 2 door coupe) just lighter in weight, give it a good well deserved face lift (not complete redesign) then give it a 6 or 8 speed manual or optional 10 spd auto and figure out how to shove the 8.4L viper V10 N/A into it instead of just a hemi or whiney pussy cat screamer 😂 and then top it off by not selling it at above $150,000 or more ... then.. then dodge will have a HAIRY ass leg to stand on against FORD and CHEVY 💯🙏

[@fadedsoul23]

No challenger acr because of physics my ass, look at how hefty the new m5 is, it’s heavier than the challenger by a substantial amount, and it handles just fine. Dodge should team up with bmw or any German company tbh if they want a beefy v8 track car for the streets (especially Porsche). Dodge engine and design (so don’t worry about it being a reskinned German car) and let bmw, Porsche, or whoever figure out the suspension tuning for good handling. Maybe they can also give dodge tips for aerodynamics. To reiterate, because I already foresee angry comments, the only thing bmw/german about this theoretical track car is the suspension tuning to make it handle better. And maybe some tires and information on aerodynamics. They won’t have a hand in the design or engine. Because Lord knows those German engines tend to blow up
