as for the V8 - all show and no go.
Far too much emphasis on loads of noise, bellowing exhaust and chucking clods of mud around with wheels spinning wildly... pah!
What ever TDI can spin 44s then can it dont tar us all with the same brush
Why not a compromise if you like a Alloy Twin Turbo V8 Diesel only down side i can see is you get away from electrics with the diesel then go back to them with the twin turbo diesel setup.
I am looking at a Duramax in the new truck but the electrics seem to outway the LS7 option .The diesel is around the same BHP the torque is about 100 more & it will give back 30% more economy .
Either will spin 44s or drive up a bank at tick over .
The bit i cant understand is why you would want to anyway ???
