Any engineer will tell you that high horse-power-per-pound is a good indication of efficient engine design. And Chevrolet's modern short-stroke V8 truck engines do more work for their weight than any other V8 in any truck today! That means they carry around fewer pounds for power they develop. (They weigh up to 200 pounds less than other comparable. engines!) It means, too, that less of the maximum truck G.V.W. con sists of engine weight and more is devoted to payload. So, you not only can haul bigger loads you have more usable power to move them! Stop by and let us show you how Chev rolet's compact, super-efficient truck V8's can save hours and dollars on your job.
