Re: [A/S] Longer-term living in an Airstream



My wife's hooked on the adjustable pedals! LOL! At 4'10" she feels 
mighty powerful with 500+ ft-lbs of torque at 1,600 rpm! That's the 
only problem I see with the new engine... it may have higher peak hp 
& tq but they occur at higher rpms. You could do the same thing with 
a 7.3L with a little help from Banks. Here's the info on the new 
engine if anyone's interested:

And it looks like it may not make it for 2003 due to some teething 
problems:
