Interesting collection of engines here. 5.3 in the Silverado, 2.7EB in the F-150 and the diesel in the Ram.
One thing is for sure: GM has tuned all of the snap out of their Gen V engines in truck applications. Probably for fuel economy.
I suppose the 4.3 V6 would have been a better fit with this group.
Although the 5.3 is slower than the F-150 with 2.7EB. That's impressive. The 2.7EB trapped 93 mph! Also, that diesel in the Ram is a SLUG. Thing runs 16.6 @ 81.5. That's dog slow.
