The Dodge Ram SRT-10 specs centre on one engine: this high-performance pickup, sold for the 2004 to 2006 model years, used the 8.3-litre V10 from the Dodge Viper, rated at 500 hp and 525 lb-ft of torque, and sent power to the rear wheels only.
Quick answer: Dodge Ram SRT-10 specs: 8.3 L V10, 500 hp (some sources list 510 hp for later years), 525 lb-ft, rear-wheel drive. The Regular Cab had a 6-speed manual and ran 0 to 60 mph in about 4.9 seconds. The Quad Cab, added for 2005, had a 4-speed automatic and was rated to tow 7,500 lb.
Dodge Ram SRT-10 specs by cab style
| Spec | Regular Cab | Quad Cab |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 8.3 L V10 | 8.3 L V10 |
| Transmission | 6-speed Tremec T-56 manual | 4-speed 48RE automatic |
| Wheelbase | 120.5 in | 140.5 in |
| Length | 203.1 in | 227.7 in |
| Curb weight | About 5,130 lb | About 5,618 lb |
| 0 to 60 mph (period tests) | 4.9 s | 5.3 s |
| Quarter mile | 13.6 s at 106 mph | 13.7 s at 100 mph |
| Top speed | About 154 mph | About 147 mph |

Both bodies are about 79.9 inches wide. The EPA ratings work out to roughly 26 L/100 km in the city for both, and about 16 (Regular Cab) or 20 (Quad Cab) L/100 km on the highway. Figures come from published specs and period road tests, so treat them as approximate.
Engine and drivetrain
The 8.3 L V10 first appeared in the third-generation Viper, and Chrysler’s performance group adapted it for the truck. Peak torque of 525 lb-ft arrives at 4,200 rpm. Rear-wheel drive was the only layout.
The Regular Cab used 4.10 final-drive gears in 2004 and 4.56 gears in 2005 and 2006. The Quad Cab used 4.56 gears.
Suspension, brakes and wheels
- Hydroformed frame with a suspension lowered about 1 inch in front and 2.5 inches in the rear
- Bilstein shocks, plus an extra rear shock to limit axle hop
- Larger four-piston front brake calipers for 2005 and 2006
- 22-inch wheels with Pirelli Scorpion P305/40R22 tires
Production and years
Production ran from late 2003 through 2006. Published totals are about 10,046 trucks: 3,057 in 2004, 5,113 in 2005 and 1,973 in 2006. That small run is why clean examples attract collectors.
What to check before buying one
- Service history: a V10 with high mileage needs documented maintenance.
- Tires and wheels: the 22-inch Pirelli size is costly and not always easy to find.
- Fuel and insurance: expect very high fuel use and a specialist insurer.
- Import status: if the truck came from the U.S., confirm its Canadian import and registration paperwork.
