I may not be SCHOOL SMART,but I know what works in real life.You said equal to a 350 is not the same as a 350.The CARB.350s-400s-454s-390s-460s-360s-440s of the 70s-80s didn't get the Mileage the new Engines get but THEY GOT ABOUT THE SAME MPG Loaded or empty PLUS PULLED THE LOAD which the new engines won't do,PLUS THEY LOSE HALF OR BETTER THEIR MPG.A good example is some of the Tractors of the Pre mid 70s,you could tell where they were by the smoke and Burnt maybe 5-6 Gal.per hour,The new tractors don't smoke but BURN 10-13 Gal.Per Hour,so where is the Sense in this?The New 2007 Truck engines are said to lose up to 10-15% of the 2006 Engines MPG.So where is the Benefit??Lastly IT does take HP. to sustain a CAT.Con.and as far as SMELL You can be around a Non Cat.engine all day and not come away with burning EYES but 5 mins. of a CAT.engine and YOU can't see or breathe,so something is NOT Right here.
