Have seen those engine before many times, but i don't remember seeing the Viper V10 engine, that is truly a piece of art [sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif]

Having a V8 or a V10 like that in a New Era 1/4 Bigfoot is a dream of mine, and as soon as i get the money i will get a V8 or a V10 and a monster truck for it, or that cobra

As i figure a new V8 is around at least 8-9000$ and around 10-13000$ for a new nice car to go with it...... so it's not cheap, but if i sometime get the money for it i wont hesitate, cause it would be the ultimate RC car experience for me anyway [sm=thumbup.gif]

The v10 engine from Conley won't be produced ever. The molds were destroyed in a fire for all the viper parts. YOu have to keep up on the NEWS.

Yea, YOU do need to keep up on the news. The viper engine is for sale $200,000 to be exact. The distributor is in the altanator. Conley is also building a new line of engines based off the viper one right now.

Automan, have you seen the pic of the new era MT with the conley V8 in it on my site? It looks sweeeet. Too bad new era could not weld for crap!

LOL, yea you could get a twin turbo henessey viper for that.
Those are some awesome little motors!

EDIT: I was just thinking about this. Wasn't the 200K viper motor for the only one left? I dont think they meant that all of them would have cost that much, but after the fire they had one left and they wanted 200K for it?

xknacx, that is the truck I'm talking about, the one i would have bought if i had the money, and with a nice v8 or even a v10 it would make me a happy person
Love your site, very good looking and with a very nice classic style that fits the 1/4scale world of classic cars very well, and it's easy to view and navigate in [sm=thumbup.gif]

I have sent you a pm my friend.

thanks for the compliments automan. I try to make it as complete as possible but its hard work and I hate computers!

Drevil, Yea, it costs that much because there is only one left and thats what it cost for the castings and to design it. If they were produced they would be much cheaper. Its really aimed at the high end collector that has money to burn not us folk.

The original and only one nobody can afford. Not at the suggested production selling price.
