Haha well the fact that how old 360 is, it does pretty snazzy against the hemi. And Cummins is pretty snazzy. But I have something say about them, I drove my buddies lightly modded 24vvalve and he had a little more low end but I think mine had as much power or more. But I love 359 more than the 360 haha

Its a very very different different feeling power. Not whipping you around slapping your head back and forth between the backrest and the dashboard like a higher rpm gas motor does, because a modded Cummins diesel makes it's power from 2000-3000 rpms. So it's a much smoother feel, you almost don't notice anythings happening until you look down and you're going 85 instead of 40.

That being said, I prefer torque in my truck over horsepower.
I like a truck that will lay down four-digit horsepower numbers, and still pull the trailer, or haul the trash, or beat on a Vette or whatever tries you.

It's like having a gorgeous girl, drama free, that cooks and cleans

My buddy agreed even. And I know gassers aren't in the same league as diesels, they can get a lot more power than gas jockeys. I was just sAying that my 5.9 gaser felt more powerful than his 5.9 diesel. I'm with wb though different kinda power, he can shred his tires like a boss I can't. I love diesels trust me haha. I just can't afford one
