The Viper V10 Swapped 240sx Gets a CUSTOM Exhaust

Motor swaps always create unique challenges. When you put a motor as big as a Dodge Viper V10 into a chassis as small as a Nissan 240sx, the challenges are amplified. The Dodge Viper V10 is already mounted with a custom built subframe. The custom oil pan for the Dodge Viper V10 is nearing completion. The last major hurdle is a full custom exhuast. But, if it doesnt work, it could derail the entire project!
With 10 cylinders and more than 8 Liters of displacement, the Dodge Viper V10 flows a massive amount of air. Each side of the motor utilizes a 3 inch exhaust collector. Thats 6 inches of total piping that needs to be narrowed down in a functional way to exit at the rear of the car. @jchutch on IG is up for the challenge though!
We also picked up several pieces for the oiling system from our friends over at Improved Racing. High quality and easy to install are part of why I love using Improved Racing for my projects. They probably have something in stock that can help with yours also! Head over to www.improvedra... and check out their massive inventory of OEM and custom parts!

For a young man to be that young and have that much fabricating talent. It’s incredible to see man that guy has the knowledge of a individual twice his age.

[@ralphralphin]

Yo Josh, You have more SKILL than LZ could ever dream of. You do some wicked fab work man. You make me wish I was still living up north to get some work done by you, but I just moved south.

Thoroughly enjoying this exhaust work video as I'm doing mine. Only difference is its my first time welding...anyway Josh is a master, amazing work and he's slightly funny

[@bodydroppedon20]

Josh is the man. Awesome work

[@IRoket177I]

So it isn't you who made this monster swap, it was him. You just a cameraman who has nothing to do with this insane project. Also why won't you say how much you paying for all of this?

[@evan_mart5314]

IMPROVED RACING FTW

[@timboulton4028]

very very gd fabricator give him credit

[@PANTYEATR1]

Awesome work guys, love the craftsmanship of this build. Is oval tubing an option? There's a lot of space in that flat area of the oil pan. Round to oval to round in that area, then merging into a Y-pipe may have made things a little easier? Just my observation from the tv screen. You guys in person can see better than i can.

[@ssoffshore5111]

Josh does really nice work! Is that exhaust going to be wrapped? Heat management is going to be a concern...

[@IlovemySubaru]

Great work on this car. It will be exciting to see the car ripping up the road 🤘🤘🤘
