Its fine as is ... we can't let Fen have every thread containing random GM news afterall.


Anyway, when I first saw those numbers was 'oh, kinda figured it would be a bit more'. Then I regained my perspective: thats roughly a 50 hp gain & another 150 ft-lbs of torque over the current engine.



Wonder if anyone will hit 500/1000 soon or will things get scaled back for emissions/fuel economy before that happens.

Yup..was wondering that myself.

But I suppose we can be happy with "just" 900 ftlbs...

I traded in my 1500 last week for 2500HD Diesel 4x4 Crewcab. I am completely satisfied with current power, especially compared to the 5.3.

GM just confirmed this in the most American way possible.

The ball is in Cummins' court now I suppose.

We'll see how they update against the 440/925 Powerstroke and now this 445/910 Duramax.

Hard to believe 385/900 is back of the pack, interesting times indeed.
