    Diesel Power Magazine reports that the 2007 6.7 Cummins will be 350hp and 650 ft/lbs of torque. This engine will be available after 1 Jan 07.

    This press release from Cummins relates to Medium Duty Trucks, I assume 4500 and 5500 trucks no one has seen yet. Engine torque is at 750 ft/lbs.

    Go to this thread and then to page 4 of the post (half way down) to get info on everything that is out there, engines, transmissions, gearing etc. Sounds like this is going to get interesting. The new 6 speed autos are detailed with gear ratio's etc.

    Here is the link to the Dodge Press release from TDR.

    This 6.7 still has another 100 ft/lbs in the hole ready to jump up if they need it. I'm sure, when chevy showed the LBZ at 650 ft/lbs of torque, Dodge had no choice.

    Good Reading if you a Dodge guy.
