If you are talking about pure stock then the Duramax most likely will win. Simple reason more horsepower in stock form.
But look at the numbers Ford and Ram are claiming on 2015 models. THey are higher than the current Dmax 397HP/765TQ. Which begs the question how they are getting those numbers?
Probably the same way they got bigger numbers back in 2011.. The Dmax was dyno tested under strict SAE standards. The other two... NOT.
Think about the difference between peak and continuous ratings... BTW, The Dmax power numbers is the same as it was back in 2011.
The highest powered Cummins is still 12 hp short of the D-max. I don't think Ram has ever tried to claim top prize on hp or speed.
You are correct...don't know the actual new GM/Chevy HP & TQ numbers, but understand, I think that the Ford is 440/860...where as the Ram with the Aisin is 385/850...
