Sure, but if you get your 325 HP diesel I get to have my 9.4 liter N/A gas engine with T400. See you at the top. I'll be the person with half a 6 pack drank before you get there. :B
You are saying that higher hp will win gas or diesel. Your 6.0 has more go than my diesel so why won't you do it with your 6.0 against my stock 5.9? I mean you have the advantage by being lighter and more hp.
Because it will not put peak HP down all of the time. Put a 10 speed auto in back of it and it will keep it in the peak HP band enough to kill a diesel. This is the reason manufactures are building mega gear transmissions.
And
because no mountain is at sea level; the place they rate a N/A engines HP. Modern diesels don't have this problem because they have turbos on them which keep them at an artificially sea level or even well below sea level under high boost.
Why are you so afraid of a low compression low torque N/A gasoline engine when you have a torque towing king of a turbo diesel engine? :B
