[QUOTE="mc01svt, post: 16121555, member: 32337"] that's not a proper extrapolation since you are comparing a light duty high performance engine (250k mi) to a commercial heavy duty engine made to last 500k miles. the GM 6.2L is an aluminum block high performance engine. It is tuned for higher power and not something you would use in an HD application as the load cycle would be too severe. This is exactly why it is only offered in the 1500 series but not the GM 3/4 & 1 ton trucks. Same thing with the ford 6.2L and the dodge 6.4L. They had to be detuned to live for high load cycle use. im going to put the 7.3L at 430hp / 525lb-ft. Thats about a 15% bump from the 3v 6.8l V10. Ford should have done this years ago. All the newer diesels are technological money pits that are putting fleet owners in the poor house. [/QUOTE]
