I bought this 04 viper a year ago from a guy in Bellevue Washigton. He was not the original owner and didn't know much about it however it has quite the build sheet Ive found out. So, anyone know....
1) how much this thing cost all together and how much its worth???
2) Just some info...….
What I know. It claimes 750 N/A HP and has ballanger race exhaust, HW adjustable suspension, Large calipers, carbon fibor wing, and ground effects, alpine speakers upgraded to JL audio and Dynomat throughout. Flip screen Bluetooth with Laser jamming system and added cameras. Not to mention all the Chrome caps, custom pin stripping, custom cover etc etc to no end. The motor I hear was built by Mach development in AZ also but I don't have a build sheet. Info...… HIT ME WITH IT!!! Fat alberts went out of business in 2012.
Thanks
Kevin in Seattle

Al Box, Fat Albert was a paint and body guy and road races many vipers
Reach out to Eddie Martin the master viper tech in Phoenix. I think he is Mayhem on the board. He may be able to give you insight on the motor

Fat Albert is a Crook. I purchased a motor from him. The motor made it 3 laps and imploded.
Upon tear down it was discovered that he simply sold me a truck motor, that was not built correctly.
He is scum as far as I'm concerned.

750 HP from a N/A Gen III motor would be very unlikely IMHO. Throw it on a dyno and compute approx 11-12% drivetrain loss.

I dynoed 624whp in my Gen 3 heads/cam Viper. A 15% drivetrain loss would be close to 750 crank. This was a corrected number. Uncorrected and the power would have been 15ish whp more. There are also other Gen 3's that have dynoed higher than mine corrected.
