THE COST OF HORSEPOWER
PER SQUARE INCH
Story by Matt Moghaddam
2019 is a strange time. With the ever-looming threat of global warming and
environmentalism on the rise, nobody could have predicted we’d be locked in
the most heated horsepower war since the ’70s. With the Big Three (GM, Ford
and Mopar) all offering their most powerful production vehicles in history, their
respective parts departments have answered the call of the homebuilt hot rodder,
making their most powerful production powerplants available as a crate-engine
option. Putting brand loyalism aside (briefly), we aimed to find out which one of
these top-of-the-line crate engines (and a bonus one) really gives you the most
bang for your buck.
