Bill, that was very helpful, thank you, however, I am not sure I understand.
Do they make the 8.0 any longer? If it is an '04 or '05 SRT-10, isn't it an
8.3 Viper?

As an example. Has a V10 but wrong year.

This one has some nice info on Dodge Ram. I confirmed my thinking on the
V-10. Two different ones. The 8.0L nonViper and the 8.3L Viper engine.
Now according to this site the 8L is now available in the Gen. 3 Ram and the
8.3L is not available in the Gen. 2 Ram. So if you are looking at a Gen. 3
with the V-10 chances are real good that it is an SRT 10.

I didn't know there was any other V-10 than the Viper engine in the SRT-10.
Am I wrong?
Thanks in advance

It's my understanding that all SRT-10 trucks have the 500HP V-10 Viper
engine. But not all V-10 equipped trucks are SRT-10. If the engine is not
the Viper V-10 it is not a true SRT-10 truck.

So the Viper engine is not in all the SRT-10 trucks?

That's correct for iron block 488 V10, un modified, However a Viper V10
truck is stock 500HP :-)
