Talking Truck Trend V-10 vs. V-8 vs, V-10 Sept./Oct. '01 issue

Just got a back issue of this magazine. Cool article. The 2v V10 makes a good showing. Gee, now I can't help but wonder how a 3v V10 F-350 dually 4x4 would compare to the Chevy 8.1L , and Dodge's V10 mill? Oh, yeah, that's right, those manufacturers gave up on those pushrod designs a few years ago. Saved themselves some un-needed embarrassment, I suppose. Magazines these days, forget about the gassers, and only test the diesel pickups. Ah, those were the good 'ole days!!! I wish 5.4L V8s, and 6.8L V10s in Super Duty would get EQUAL print space to the 6.0L&6.4L diesels. "Triton Power". Catchy title for a magazine,huh?

Sorry, but I don't have the magazine anymore. It was an early Christmas gift for a buddy of mine who has a '01 V10 dually, so I owed him a favor for helping me out. I did read through the article, and wrote down some of the important "figures"(i.e. 0-60 times& 1/4 miles times). Here they are : 0-60
Ford V10 : 9.69
Dodge V10 : 9.78
Chevy 8.1L : 9.96 (HA!HA!)
1/4 miles times :
Ford V10 17.36@78.20mph
Dodge V10: 17.33@77.68mph
Chevy 8.1L :17.43@79.45mph
