Chevy 5.7 LS-6 = 405 HP
Dodge 5.7 HEMI = 345 HP

I think if you wanna compare it should be
chevy 4.8 dodge 4.7
chevy 5.3 dodge 5.7
and 6.0
chevy ls2 dodge 6.1, 6.4 or whatever else
all the other
ls based engine
But thats not a good way to compare because of all the diff. kinds of trucks these motors come in. I mean my ecsb 4x4 has owned a few hemi trucks, and been owned by a few and im sure it goes the other way around

I am probably closer to 435 than 345.............. but I can't put it to the ground worth a flip.

LS6 was an expensive sepcialty motor, best comparison is the LS1 with 305-350 HP, in others words, a dead heat. Hemi is rated at 340-345 HP, but abit more torque.
