They can't release a 6.4 truck and have it be priced anywhere near the TRX pricing . Max, it shouldn't be more than 70k. And even that is pushing it. If it happens, I hope it will be a RWD factory lowered street truck. They already have multiple off road 4x4 edition trucks. Should be...
If you don't care about driving fast, or towing why get a 392 Rebel when a 5.7 one will get you to the same place at the same times with better fuel economy.
Yes, cold air charge with higher cylinder temps. That's why you need a true cold air Intake, or somewhat to cool the intake charge. I know it may sound crazy, but you can have a cold intake charge and an engine running 200 degrees coolant temp. At full throttle, there isn't a lot of heat soak...
Don't try and inject reason and facts into the conversation. Cooler is better because my grandpappy told me they never ran thermostats at all back in his day and his old carbureted big block never missed a lick. I run a 180 thermostat in my 1966 D100 with factory original 318 Poly because...
You must have an older classic Stingray, because all the modern ones run the same temps as our Hemis And it may be hard for some to comprehend, but technology, tuning, and even engineering concepts have changed a lot since the 60s and 70s.
It's funny you even try to bring that up. Most people swapping to colder thermostats are racers trying to keep engine cooler so they can run higher timing, which is harder on the engine. I'd bet you find more 250k mile modern vehicles on the road that have maintained factory thermostat temp...
For the reason you stated. Margin or error because your average car owner isn't paying attention to the gauges until the idiot lights start flashing in their face. And even then, many don't know what or why the lights are on.
If running cooler was so much better why do they set the efan...
