Lots of butt hurt in this useless and pointless thread. You guys crack me up.

An example of an inane and pointless comment. Anyone who uses the term ecotard must be feeling butt hurt. I really don't give a **** if your hooked up with a Briggs &Stratton, as long as a guy is happy with his truck doing what he wants to do. What difference does it make what I or anyone else thinks about your choice of engine. Oh, and here's the obligatory smiley face so you know I'm not serious.

I betcha [MENTION=138568]scap99[/MENTION] would be close. Less HP but more torque. Other than that it's hard to out power a sc 6.2l.

Do you actually tow with that truck? I'm guessing if you really cared about towing you wouldn't have supercharged it and potentially grenade the engine... In my mind the truck that wins at towing is the truck that reliably gets the load around using the least fuel. Maybe that is just crazy talk though.
Also, your FI 6.2 doesn't really carry relevance to a thread where the op is asking to get an ecoboost or a v8. We get it though, your truck dick is bigger

What propaganda coming out of the 5.0 corner? We're not the ones acting like the other motor only has 7 ft lbs. of torque and is useless for all towing and useless for everything except an exhaust note and grocery getting. Who cares if a few guys prefer the sound of the v8. That's not propaganda. That's not engine narcissism which is what the eco diehards are best at spreading. At least they've got themselves impressed :-)

I think you may be the biggest v8 fan boy around. You get so mad if anyone comes down on the V8 that everything you say is incoherent and jumbled. It's like your so made that you can't get out what you want to say because your pounding your keyboard.
See a doctor and get some Prozac...you might just stoke out.

Seriously, who cares about drag racing a truck? I don't see the point.. If you want to go fast you could spend a fraction of the cost and get a much faster car..
