LOL, I have lost nothing, but I do apologize for what was evidently considered a cheap shot. That was not the intent. The Mods can delete it if they choose. Maybe they already have, I'm not going back to look.
I still don't like friction held timing gears and no amount of "science" is going to change my mind. I also prefer torque over HP in a work truck.
Yes, putting turbos (or superchargers) on a 1.5, 2.5 or 3.5 liter engine is going to help it out a lot in that department and flatten the curve, but it also works on 5.0, 5.7, 6.0 and 6.2 liter engines in the same way.
@8thTon you can call it a win if you like. It really means nothing to me either way and I do sincerely apologize if I hurt your feelings or anyone else's.
