The thing that really matters is torque and that high revving 4 cammer makes a lot less at 625lb feet and the tq peak is something like 5000rpm.

GM believes in power and tq through the whole rev range rather than peak numbers which can be very misleading.

Fords engine is also heavier.

The Camaro ZL1 1LE just topped the GT500 in C&D's March 2020 edition with 110 less HP!

You need to put the power to the ground or its useless.
