What do you guys think of this. I wonder how hard it would be to swap!

Who needs a 6.0 swap when you can have a v-16 swap.

I'm gonna have to raise the flag on the gas mileage numbers...

If it can get that kind of mileage though it would be a beast to throw in a Silverado. I guarantee those Hemi guys would get the word out to each other pretty quick!

I think the mileage comes from DOD (Displacement On Demand). I wouldn't mind having the extra cylinders, but I'm sure regulations are the first hurdle to overcome. Oh yeah, and the $$$.
