The 5.0s in the trucks only come with 360 hp vs. the GTs 5.0s which come with 412hp. Although they'll outrun a Chevrolet, they still wont outrun a Dodge, Titan or Tundra....Adding the 5.0 to me, only asks for people trying to race you just to say they outran a 5.0....the one on the tailgate does look good though, small but tasteful.

My sister just bought a '12 Supercrew XLT with only 3.31 gears, and after driving it, I didnt feel much slower than my buddies '12 Ram Hemi 1500 quad cab with 3.92 gears(that I've driven as well). I'm trying to talk her into buying the Boss 302 intake and 5star tune lol

I currently bring my vehicles to a local speed shop but they charge $300 a pop, so that's getting steep paying that every time I do something to one of my vehicles
