Can anyone tell me or find me acceleration specs on a 2002 dodge dakota sport 4x4 with a 4.7 I cant find any I just wanna see if I am gaining any with the small mods I have now and the big ones I have planned
did you try google?
Powering our Patriot Blue tester was the 4.7L V-8 that puts out 235 horsepower at 4,800 rpm and 295 lb-ft of torque at 3,200 rpm. Besides giving the Dakota the ability to tow up to 5,800 pounds, it also makes the Dakota a blast to drive by providing superb acceleration. Power comes on hard and the 4.7L is more than capable of scooting the Dakota along at a rapid pace. We found ourselves looking for, and enjoying, every opportunity to demonstrate the Dakota’s muscle.
Coupled to the 4.7L V-8 in our test unit was the NV3500 five-speed manual transmission that allowed every ounce of power to reach the wheels. While this box doesn’t shift as smoothly as a trans you might find in a sports car, it still allowed us to bang through the gears quickly enough to take advantage of the 4.7L V-8’s ample power. Better yet is that it allowed us to take the 4.7L mill all the way up to 6,000 rpm before the rev limiter kicked in to ruin our fun. A powerful engine combined with a five-speed in a compact truck definitely makes for an exciting driving experience.
Performance specs:
Acceleration 0-60: 8.53 sec
Quarter-mile elapsed time: 16.12 @ 83.82
Braking 60-0: 119.83 ft
Brake fade 60-0: 123.21 ft
600-ft slalom: 59.04 mph
