411hp and 434lb-ft of torque in a truck is anemic? That's what the new 6.2L Ford cranks out, and that is class leading power.
I think 426hp and 420lb-ft of torque in a truck would be close enough to call it a draw, and we know GM happens to make just such a motor. It should also cost less to build and maintain, so "advantage chevy".
