When can I get one of these motors in a typical 8600 gvwr 25 series rig? 4.10's, 6 sp auto, would get upper teens, maybe just into the 20's. Has HP/torque to yank upwards of 10K around with in the proper chassis. It was not too long ago, a BB V8 had all of 200 HP and maybe 350 lbft of torque........at half to 1/4 of the mpg of this motor.........we might have a few winners coming on shortly!

I hate the new gear ratio's but they are going for fuel burn numbers and it will do mid 20's on the interstate. If they would pair the new 4.3 with 4.10's in a heavy duty version it would be interesting for sure. Thanks for all the great info guys
