Default How good is the 4.0L Petrol I6?

I came across this YouTube video and thought it might make more sense to link it here than in a number of different threads.

Even Scotty gets a kick out of revving this engine!

I’m obviously a fan.

It is corse, it is old school, but does everything well.

What I like it that it is tough and durable as well as fixable.

No limp mode and only basic electronics. I feel confident it will get me home after a trip away.

How is this for 4.0+ L power?

Interesting to compare dyno results from various throttle body sizes and intake manifold configurations.

Maybe Stellantis should have based it's hurricane engines on a derivative Powertech I6 4.0L instead of the 3.0L?
