Talking about the v8 detroit mack cat and v8 cummins v12 detroits were all came in trucks cat and mack were only ones that had the torque as the i6 detroits were 2cycle got their power from rpms 903 cummins had more cubes than 855 I6 but didn't get there power anywhere. v12 cats never came in a road truck too heavy but is awsome motor.

I went to a podunky truck pull here in WV over the summer, there were lots of Dodges and Fords pulling, no Chevies.
Ford guys did pretty good. Saw one guy in a 24V dodge that dynoed at 600+ hp and 1200 ft lbs (street truck) and he didn't do very well at all.
Saw another guy in a cummins that stayed in it so long he blew something out, his truck was dumping coolant all over the place.
