Re: Engines 6.1 Hemi vs. 6.2 LS3

I know the chevy motor has a better following and more aftermarket parts but the modern hemi motors have gained a great following and it gets better almost daily. When comparing the two motors in question when not considering aftermarket support the hemi wins in my book. More power with less displacement. Also the guys at allpar said that with the 6.1 and a six speed that 26 mpg highway was easily achieved. So that takes the gas mileage off the table. Also to the best of my knowledge the modern hemi motors given the same cubes the modern motors are more efficeint. That is what we should be judging motors by. Who can build the most power with the least cubes.
