    "Ain't no replacement for cubic inch displacement!"

    2005 Corvette LS2/M6 Magnetic Red Metallic (What else would it be?) w/ Cashmere interior

    2002 Z28: NBM/Tan, MTI smooth lid, smooth bellows, !AIR, !cats, 1-3/4" QTP SS LT's, 2-1/2" TD's with X-pipe, MagnaFlows dumped at axle, custom welded SFC's, MidWest Chassis body mount adjustable T/A, 3400 stall, 3.23 gears (was 2.73). Tuned: 343rwhp/357rwt (before TD's). Best: 12.559 @ 108+, 1.73 60' @ 3500' DA w/MT ET Street DR's.

    My rat motor torque means I get there faster than your "I gota push it's dead ass" 3rd gen...

    Then again the 67 has been down longer than your 3rd gen. Hmmmm, who can push their car faster longer???

    Can't wait to build a tow truck style 5xx inch rat when I have a daily
    driver. Stealthy killer. Shit, an 8.1 would fill that need perfectly

    What kind of torque #'s do those put out? For torque I still say diesel FTW.

    just under 500 lb/ft in a mild state. I've read they greatly benefit from a tune

    Duramax = 765
    Powerstroke = 800
    To the OP I'm glad you're happy with your new truck, sorry for the hijack.

    still less than a diesel, but you can replace the whole engine for the price of 4 injectors.
