FORD and CHEVY 6.2L engines compared--> but it's a PICKUP! - Page 2

Wonder why they didn't compare it to a 6.2 in a Sierra or Silverado half ton.

Why not just compare GM's 6.2L truck engine against Ford's 6.2L truck engine? That would be a far better compro. I like the new 6.2L Ford engine and heard Jack Roush got a NA 4V version over 800hp but I think I'm gonna stick with the simpler and easier to modify GM 6.2L.

Ford currently has no plans to put the 6.2L in the Mustang, and the fun stops shy of 6,000rpm because, even though it is a SVT product, the Raptor is an off roader and a real, uable truck. This isn't tuned for max rpm antics.

This comparison makes no sense. My new 3500 chevy has almost 400HP and almost 800FT/lbs of torque and it in no way would run any where near with my camaro. But, my camaro wouldn't pull my 10,000lb trailer 80mph up the mt either. Why do they even do these idiotic comparisons?

the Ford 6.2L could easily loose 130 pounds with a aluminum block and Iron plasma wire arc tech they used on the 5.4L
