Let us try that again the CC 4.7 is much lighter than the R/T 5.9 CC. The
numbers are upside down.

Weight ratio? of what, the engine itself?? yea, the 4.7L weighs about 60 or
70 pounds less.
Compare it to the truck weight, like the HP to weight ratio, ok, There is
very little difference.
The 5.9 would be .066 hp per lb, and 4.7 is .064 hp per pound.
furthermore, the 4.7L is 73 cubes smaller and has about 35 lbs less torque.
What are you comparing Steven??

Matt;
Now compare the weight ratio versus HP (ensure they have the same rear gears
/ Tranny).
