New powerstroke

I saw fords new commercial on tv for the 6.0.They are now advertising a new 360 or 365 horsepower powerstroke. How do you think it compares to the newer duramax.

you sure it was not the new 6.4? the 6.0 will not be getting anymore upgrades so its unlikely the commercial was for the 6.0.

Im almost positive it was not for the 6.4. Either way this engine has 360 or 365 horse.

the 6.0 is only 325 HP and is set to die with that amount. Ford will not be upgrading it.

I was watching Jay Leno was on NBC. I believe the Duramax is around the same power so it should be interesting.

I just saw a commercial on TV about the new Dmax...... they said 650 ft/lbs of torque. Who knows though. It's gettin pretty crazy. I still like my older diesels.... whether it be a 12 valve cummins or the old 7.3 stroker... Oh well though. It's only going to get crazier!

Are you sure it was for the new powerstroke, the new commercial I seen had the v-10's HP rating, 362hp but showed the diesel's torque rating 570ft lbs
