The extra cubic sure did help a lot. That 392 is really thirsty too.. Sorry but GM has the better engines IMO.

How so? 6.4 Hemi isn't even Direct Injection and makes 470/470, it also has an active intake manifold and VVT. If they decide to put DI on the 6.4 it will easily be over 500hp and torque. 6.2 LT1makes 460/460 using DI so it still makes less power and torque but I will give you it will be more fuel effecient than the Hemi will be. But besides mpg I don't see the LT1 being a better engine than the 6.4 mopar. I just wish Mopar would start using aluminum blocks to get the weight down, that would be an easy 75-100lb weight reduction form already heavy cars, jeez!
