Sam, What mods have been done to your engine?? I'll agree the 4.7L won't
beat the 5.9L in the Torque dept., but beat them it will, and does,
regularly ;) And not "Heavily modded" either, atleast not yet :) Only
point I was trying to make with Jack was it wasn't a 50 ft. lbs difference
in the two engines. I never said the 4.7L had more TQ.
