Anyone else think the light truck market will turn into the class 8 market where horsepower numbers will hold around the same and the TQ number will go up? I've noticed this in tractors as well.
Not upset about those numbers if its true. GM in true fashion probably under rated them as well.
I'm over having a loud "fast" truck. These trucks have become more and more of a mobile office and I enjoy the quiet. Between that and all the idiot young kids running around with early 2000s diesels blowing smoke everywhere constantly
Can't believe I'm saying this :rofl:

I honestly brag about how big and quiet my 51" Donaldson muffler is. Lol. I'm actually thinking I might throw a 20" mbrp muffler I have on my frontpipe too.
I wish I had the coin for a new one, but it won't be in the cards for me for a while.
My 16 is so quiet, I'm keeping it this way. Just lift, tires, tint and few other odds and ends on this one...
The numbers got put on on gm powertrain.
445/910 so we have 5 more hp then ford but less tq lol
Also showed the express vans with the 2.8 duramax lol

put straight 5" on my reg cab short bed LBZ. That with the the up pipes and manifolds etc it is so damn loud. Sounds good but not something that is fun to drive 100 miles a day. Bad move on my part.
Yup, no mud terrains on this thing. Tint and colormatching and amp steps haha
I just drove 1400 miles round trip pulling a 28' car trailer last Tuesday-Wednesday and I really wished I had put my muffler back on for the trip. And I've got a 10 hour drive down to Oklahoma in November with my toy hauler...... The muffler might go back on for a bit.

Tell me about it. Pulled my heavy ass toy hauler 20 hrs across Canada with a straight piped side dump in front of the rear tire with a Danville 2.5 charger and window's down a/c. Not fun.
I'm saying it's a classic underrate by GM. 500/1000 already!
Any news on pistons in these things?:happy2:

Just saw a picture of the actual motor on a stand, with a cutaway rear section. Trying to upload the picture but it's saying "incorrect file extension" just sent you the pic Josh
