The 6.4L Hemi has 50 more hp and 49 lbs-ft more tq than the GM 6.0L. It will out perform the GM loaded or empty, and get better mpg doing it. GM has really neglected their gas powertrain in the HDs, haven't kept up to the competition and it shows.
I disagree with you here...how is it "neglecting" the 6.0 simply because they haven't given it a massive overhaul? The 6.0 is a solid performing engine with a proven track record. It gets respectable gas mileage and makes respectable power numbers. It still sells well enough to be a competitive product. That isn't neglecting it... that is making an intelligent decision not to spend money on R&D to fix something that isn't broken...

Sometimes it's better off to leave well enough alone and the GM 6.0 falls into that category.
