Default Re: 4.7 V8 vs. 5.7 V8

Well, the 5.7 probably gets *slightly* better mpg during normal driving thanks to the extra overdrive gear with the 6-speed transmission. But those drivers with a heavy foot will get better mpg with the 4.7 than the 5.7, because if you get on the gas hard, the 5.7 will start consuming lots of fuel.
