One belt for all accessories....... and the blower! That kinda blows. Maybe I'll be able to at least use my current upper on the cobra. Hopefully that engine will make it into more than one year of Cobras. We're about 18 months away from a new platform altogether.

Question

Interesting photo of the motor, as there are some differences from what is in the actual vehicle. Check out the throttle lever.

It has 2 belts. Looks awesome.

It looks like they had to use a shorter intake to get it to fit under the hood. Because of that they must have had to relocate the altanator.

Yep, you're right. I just noticed the other one. Neither one runs the S/C exclusively though. That means an extra pulley to slow the accessory that is on the same belt as the supercharger, if you get a lower pulley kit. (When they are available, that is.)

From the looks of it, the s/c belt also drives the alternator.

looks like it will be fun to change the plugs as well... Going to have to take off the upper intake to get to the plugs on the left side.

Here's some more. The much ballyhooed Ram SRT-10 Whatever...

Definitely a show truck. Smoothed rolled pan, kick a$$ mettalic paint job and a host of other custom touches that would never make a production vehicle. Dollars to cents Dodge will end up putting the Hemi motor in this truck and that will be their "High-Performance" truck. 0-60 in 5 seconds ??? BFD !!!

And...the '03 Navigator.

It comes with POWER running boards among other neat things. That's right. The running boards slide in and out, depending on whether you're entering or exiting the vehicle Eat that Cadillac !!!

No way. These are like Hemi heads. The plugs are under that center cover on the valve covers. Easy to get at.
