Frost, the 3.0 turns something like 145, and the 4.0 will turn 202.
If it's the 3.0, he has no chance. If it's the 4.0, I bet he would win. Then, you hook up an 8k trailer to both..........

It took alot of digging, but I think I found it:
163 HP
To see for yourself, go to this link and run a search on "351"

But, yours puts out a whole lot more torque than he could ever hope to put out of his V6!

You're geared right for a win. His weight is right for a win. Run him on an 1/8 mile track and he's all yours. Probably be a toss up in the quarter. Drop the tail gate. That'll get you some weight off and cut down on drag. Remove air filter for less air resistance and catch a good light!

You've got him by the *****, unless he is a professional with that manual tranny. He'll be burning the clutch, missing shifts, and losing traction.
If he wins, just take a chain and drag his truck around the parking lot... just kidding...
