Oh....so the new engine has more horsepower than torque? Doesn't that suck?

Thumbs up

460lbft +/- is a very nice number especially without turbos or a supercharger. I prefer NA engines, especially those with enough displacement to get this kind of trq.

so will this engine be faster than the current 5.5L Kompressor?
Will it be better down the road in terms of mechanical problems?
