Neither gasoline or diesel is a magic elixir that changes the rules of physics or thermodynamics. A 300hp @ 1800 rpm diesel running at 1800 rpm will pull the same as a 300hp @ 4500 rpm gas engine running at 4500 rpm. If both are appropriately geared to turn their respective rpm's at 65 mph they will both pull the same at 65 mph.
They won't sound the same or get the same mpg doing it, but both will gin along happily in their power band.
