If you've ever ridden in a truck with a big V8 on E-85 with boost, you'll throw rocks at rattlin' stinkers and know why some folks are so big on running it. Great power, runs cool and clean.
Just gotta find a better way to make it than by using food.
Did you bring up a 2 year old thread just to trash talk Diesels?
If it wasn't for the Duramax I would be driving a Cummins powered Dodge....I used to tow with Big Blocks in the early 90's, I was lucky if those pig's would make it to 150,000 miles, Adding a Turbo will shorten the life expectancy even more.

I think I will keep my 650 ft. lbs., Quiet, Smoke free modern Diesel & run for 300,000 plus miles.
