I was looking around today on the ford website, playing with the build your own truck thing, and I noticed that the V8 engine is packing 300hp and I think around 360lb/ft torque. I started to look at the Dodge and Chevy sites to see how strong the V8s were. Dodge's V8 Hemi packed 345hp and 375lb/ft of torque. Finally, Chevy's V8 is promised as 295hp and a not so whopping 305lb/ft of torque. The only problem in comparing the big three is the size of the engine. Ford's biggest is the 5.4L, Dodge's is the Hemi, and Chevy's is the 4.6L

 

no.

 

I thought Chevy big V8 was the 5.3L? They did away with it?

 

chevy offers a 5.3 making 315 hp and a 6.0 making 367 both available in a 1/2 ton truck

 

Actually isn't 295 hp pretty good for a 4.6 L engine? I bet that 6.0 pretty good.
