So it's the same rotating assembly, gas has slightly less energy than diesel.
What's keeping this 6.7 gas engine from producing near the same hp/tq as the diesel version? I assume compression ratio difference?
I'm pretty sure right there you said you're a vet and disabled vet, and if your truck breaks down due to CP4 you expect to be taken care of.
Looks an awful lot like you're expecting special treatment due to your service.
As another pointed out you should have simply said you bought an...
I believe the limiting factor on the rotating assembly is the hypereutectic pistons.
There are already a couple trucks with blowers pushing 600+ hp to the wheels, one of which is a company truck towing 8k to 10k reliably. There is another shop who took a crate engine and other than fueling...
That logic goes both ways. The Hemi has been out for how long and it's performance capabilities haven't gone further than they have and it seems they also haven't figured out the lifters.

I haven't looked much at 6.4 aftermarket performance but is it there like on the 7.3?
They've already got several big name shops making tunes, headers, cams, even blower kits from...

Have there been any new rumors? Ram is middle of the road on HP but lacking severely on TQ.
I do think because of GMs decision to stick with a 6 speed and...
