Default 2003 dak 4.7 vs 04 hemi?

I just bought a 2003 dakota quad cab 4x4 with a auto 4.7 in it.. And my brother has a 2004 ram 1500 (quad cab also) with a hemi. And hes already talking sh*t about how his truck will smoke the dak. However we both got cold air and exhaust.. however hes got the 20s with 36s on it.. What do you guys think will be faster? clearly the hemi has more power but its a bigger truck..what do you guys think

if he has stock gearing you will win. If he's re-geared than well it's like running stock tire size.
