since i had both V8’s and 4 bangers i think its more impressive to see the little motors make more power, hence why i havnt driven a V8 for years. when you talk about weight dont forget you V8 guys make allll that torque to get that weight moving, so you at least will have that bragging point.

dont forget the roots. everything is horsepower to weight,its been that way for years,i.e. 427 ac cobra, hemi darts, big block vettes, even look at the new vette tons of hp and lightweight, thats where its at and always will be. its your fault you choose to build a heavy truck so dont complain because people were smarter to build lighter stuff.
