Is a Twin-Turbo V6 better than the equivalent naturally aspirated V8?

I’ll take it off your hands since it doesn’t have a V8. It can sit between my GTO and SS sedan. ;-)

It’s awd too, so that helps out as well.

Just had this thought and how potentially lazy/brilliant GM engineers are:
5.7 L/8=0.7 L/Cylinder
4.3L/6=0.7 L/Cylinder
Close enough, same bore and stroke minus 2 cylinders?

believe that’s correct, it’s basically the same engine. no idea where I read that though.

You’re correct Jake. That honor of a small pickup V8 goes to the Dodge Dakota. Dodge doesn’t make it anymore. I did pour some out on that sad day.

Always wanted a lowered 2WD V8 Dakota. One of the square-body ones. Autocross minitruck!

You’ll excuse me for not standing up right now. You see, there’s just this... um... reason that I can’t stand up right now.

Those original 5.2 Shelbys are cool - not many left...

There was great comparison in Road & Track between the cyclone and a Ferrari way back in the day. They were both fast, but if my memory serves me right the Cyclone won due to its beer keg hauling ability.
These were quick trucks back in “the day”.
