F250 non-powerstroke vs. newer gas engines.

I'm wondering how these 2 vehicles would compare to each other in HP, torque, etc. I think that the newer a newer gas truck may put out the same HP and torque as my 1992 F250 Deisel? I belive the F250 puts out 175 HP? Of course gear ratios make a difference, I would look for a 4.11 rear-end (like the F250).

I will use it to tow an empty trailer(3,000lbs) and also a loaded trailer which may weigh 11,000 lbs total. I only use it about 3,000 miles per year today.
ALso hauling in the bed of the truck up to 1200 lbs.
Thanks!

How will a gas 5.7 compare to a non-powerstroke 7.3liter. the 7.3 liter has 175HP.
I do NOT need a larger rig, just ot be equal becasue the diesel does just fine, I just want to get a gas truck and heard the 5.7 chevy 350's put in the 1999's, 2000's are equivalent.

2000 Chevy 2500 with 5.7 255hp @ 4600 RPM Torque 330 @ 2800 RPM

2001 Chevy 2500 with 6.0 300hp @ 4400 RPM Torque 370 @ 4000 RPM

Basically you lose some low end starting out power with the newer Chevy gas engines (check the RPMs for the peak torque) but once you're going down the road you can blow the doors off the Ford.

My brother drives a 1996 F250 with a Powerstoke and a 2005 Chevy 1500 with the smaller 5.3 engine, he's amazed by the power of the much smaller gas engine.

The only truck my stock suzuki samurai used to be able to beat was my buddies 1989 F350 4x4 wtih 7.3 non-turbo.

Now when towing, that is another story but my other friends had chev 5.7's and his current is the 6L. He has a landscaping company and you can feel the 4000 lb trailer/tractor behind but will still climb hills fine with the od locked out. The two engines are pretty close.

When I tow his setup with the neigbours 4.6 L Ford it is noticable slower up hills but I don't hold up traffic, just makes the 4.6 spin pretty fast in 2nd gear.

The 4.6 L ford was also fairly loaded when towing our JD 336 baler up some 8% grades, I couldn't get much over 30 mph not that you'd want too. The baler is heavier than the truck I believe, maybe by 1000 lbs?

On the flip side, the 7.3 l ford will pull an 8000 lb haywagon load up the same hill at near the same speed but it doesn't seem to struggle at all.
