Agreed that is awesome horse power given the displacement but it is also extremely peaky, developed at a very high RPM, and virtually useless in our heavy trucks
For heavy trucks you want lots of torque over a wide RPM range

SGL,
I know...was essentially being facitious about wanting my truck's dyno to look like that. Figured it was just an impressive acheivement given the size of the motor...not unlike Supras that don't start to spin-up until 3-4,000rpm and are gutless down below.
