Back in black

Now that Fiat saved Chrysler from certain death, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne is in control and he has big plans for the manufacturer.  One is to drag the Viper out of the doghouse and make the snaky supercar into a proper halo car for the Dodge brand.  Good for you, sir.  It’s not official, but the next generation Viper could be powered by a Ferrari inspired V10.  The engine would be a two-cylinder extension of the Fiat family V8. With 90-degree cylinder banks and pushrod-actuated valves, the Viper version would be a bit of a cross-breed, skipping the high-tech flat-plane crank found in the Ferrari version.
