The real HP/TQ numbers this is going to hurt!

From what I heard, the Ford engineered 6.7 is working out to be a good engine.

Not at all surprised at the results, how many V8 Diesels are in OTR trucks? Not many, usually straight 6 and 8 since they will produce more torque just by the fact they have more journals, one for each piston, where V8's have shared journals, and the V design takes away from the stroke where that torque comes from.

V8's, great for racing, but if you want a powerhouse for pulling a house down, you can't beat a straight 6. It's just too bad the Cummins in in a dodge. What the heck were they thinking putting a 5 foot bed on a dually?

True, exception being Scania not sold in the US with it's 730hp V8
