+1 on that, but I am still voting c6zo6 for the win if the bodybuilder can drive.

I was just pointing out that he was talking out his ***. I'd probably give the slightest edge to the Vette too but I think its just gonna be a drivers race.

Yea it's all those cubes man..LOL...But while were at it Im kinda 2 sided on the V10 488 ci in the Viper...It 's a huge engine..yet it only put's down 400-420 rwhp bone stock????410 100% stock in my case...

But on the other hand it was putting down 400-420 rwhp back in 1996, wich was CRAZY power back then

But now adays the SRT10's 440-460 rwhp bone stock seems pretty limp wristed for a 502 ci V10. I hope the new 2008 V10 will finally make use of all those inches.

Vipers are still pretty heavy all though they do seem to be getting lighter by the year.
Im pretty sure they are still using an iron block. Does anyone know for sure?
