That's totally wrong.....my engine started life as a 5.9L 245HP gas hog. Now it's a 6.7L 481HP monster than gets, wait for it.....almost 3 more mpg than it did originally!

I built this engine to be as efficient as possible through maximum torque output for fuel burned and it sure as heck has WAY more HP/L than it did originally.
