Can you share the details of the on/off switch, did you buy that on amazon or something?

ChatGPT response:

I think we can do better. Some people buy art, I'd buy this and just park it in my driveway.

Sounds a lot like how I use mine. But I'm not called Harry.

You'll probably get more replies on the hdram forums, this forum is more for the 1500: https://hdrams.com/forum/index.php

It has, hasn't it? And all because he wants to pretend there are no advantages to the hemi over the hurricane. Who would have thought a thread celebrating the return of the hemi would bring in such intense arguments from hurricane guys. But I'll take the hint and move on. He is now chilling...

In the end, some truck buyers want a NA v8 engine because they have them on the shelf already, right now, and it has a better duty cycle (among other equally attractive features). Better duty cycle is not an opinion, its a fact backed up by the engineers themselves and decades of knowledge...

You assumed. If I said 6.4 in a thread that previously mentioned both the BGE and SRT, then if it isn't clear to you which one is being mentioned then you need to clarify before picking one option and arguing against it. And now you're just stubbornly arguing this inane point for no reason. You...

I said 6.4. You assumed BGE. This thread has mentioned both of them several times. Now that it has been made very clear to you which engine I am referring to, maybe you can move on and stop arguing completely inane points.

I've also made the decision to upgrade my shocks to more heavy duty shocks, yet my truck isn't "heavy duty". Imagine that :rolleyes: As for the cummins, they don't build the 5.9 anymore even the 2500. Please keep up. And I'd never purchase the 6.7 because A) it's probably 12k+ CAD over and...

A Google Gemini summary: Modern heavy-duty truck gas engines (like those in 2500, 3500, F250, and F350 models) predominantly use cast iron blocks instead of aluminum for several key reasons, primarily related to the demands of heavy-duty applications: Strength and Durability: Cast iron is...

Why don't you actually research this instead of spilling nonsense on the forums? For example, TFL interviewed the 7.3 engineers and asked them pretty much point blank why they didn't use the ecoboost; the answer, as I've been saying, "duty cycle" and "mpg". All the heavy duty engines use iron...

No, you assumed we were talking about the BGE. Your mistake.

The 6.4 BGE makes 410 hp before 2025. They dropped it 5 hp for 2025. The 5.7 numbers are fine where they are. It is 100% competitive with the other 3 v8s in the segment. They just need to add the 6.4 SRT (at 485 hp) for those like me who would like a decent bump in power, while maintaining all...

No. They use iron because of duty cycle and how it handles heat. You bet with your money as you see fit.
