the original viper engine was based of the truck V-10. they ended up being quite different, but that was the start.
It all depends where you read, they have a special on speedvision once and a while, and they say its "basically a hemi with 2 cylinders "added on"" but in magazines its an aluminum version of the truck engine...

speedvision has a lot of rednecks who think the word "hemi" (yeah, I know it's not a word) has some mystical higher meaning and they feel compelled to say it every 15 minutes.

I did not think the viper engines used hemispheric principles... like domed pistons and concave heads...
It just uses the Hemi's block...so its not a hemi but a hemi?!
