Default Re: Any body have any dealings with the chevy 6.2 liter at the track?

I haven't seen one yet. We saw a magazine test recently which featured a 6.2 against our 5.7 in quad cabs. The 6.2 was a tenth faster, but was killed by the 5.7 when loads were added. Some interesting information can be taken from this.

They did not disable traction control on anything. I am not sure what that does to the Chev but it hurts the Tundra for sure. One other very important consideration....the 6.2 is not available in an RCSB....you can only get them in a fully burdened "performance bus".

I think with nannies disabled and racing unloaded in 4HI the 5.7 would have beaten the 6.2, as evident in the results of the loaded races. Throw in an RCSB and it would be a slaughter. I suppose someone could counter by saying they could use a Chev RCSB for reduced weight. Bzzzt, wrong!! Those only come with a microscopic 5.3.
