Oh really? Ok, well then let's do a 4 valve 6.2L with VVT for comparison. It's not fair to compare 2 valves/cyl to 4 valves/cyl.

That's because it's in a truck. If I am not mistaken the F150 also uses the coyote 5.0, but in the F150 it makes 360hp @ 5500 rpm and 380 tq @ 4250 rpm. The "little" 3.5 L, although giving up 1.5L does 365hp @ 5000 rpm and 420 tq @ 2500 rpm. And that's from just 6 cylinders! Imagine if it had 8 cylinders!
