The Ford Mustang needs no introduction, and in 2024, it is somewhat in a class of its own. It returned for 2024 with its V8 engine intact and even better than before, refusing to follow the Chevy Camaro and Dodge Challenger to the grave. Ford already gave us the Shelby Mustang GT500, it unveiled the GT3 race car and even gave the world the Mustang Dark Horse.

The 5.9L Cummins diesel engine is best known for its time when it powered Dodge trucks beginning in 1989, and it's an engine that certainly helped propel the Ram into being one of the top pickup truck brands. If you're looking to get as much performance as possible out of 5.9L Cummins diesel, then you need to set your sights on the latest iteration of the engine that you can find. For the first several years, there's no difference in performance as the engine produced 160 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque from 1989 to 1993.

How Much Torque Does A 5.9 Cummins Engine Have? Here Are The Specs

It used to be that an inline four-cylinder was just slightly more powerful than a lawnmower, but modern performance technology, as well as super and turbocharging, has made them formidable engines. In fact, there are some high-output I-4s that rival V-6s and even V-8s, both in horsepower and torque. Gone are the days when four-cylinders were only for sensible compacts, as they now power some of the hottest rides around.

Corvette E-Ray A four-figure horsepower number isn’t the exclusive province of sketchy tuner cars anymore; there are a handful of warrantied engines and electric motor arrays making over a thousand horsepower, but mostly they do it in cars that weigh as much as a full-size pickup or more. The new ZR1 weighs 3670 pounds in coupe form and 3758 pounds in convertible form, which is within around 100 pounds of a Porsche 911 Turbo S. This powerplant is going to live in a relatively lightweight car, built by some of the best chassis engineers on the planet.

The first thing to follow a crate engine announcement seems to be a long wait. Dodge announced a range of Hurricrate inline-six engines and four Hellephants in November 2022. The Hurricates are finally here. They start with the Cat 1 (as in hurricane category, ba-dum bump) making 420 horsepower and 468 pound-feet of torque with 22 psi of boost from its two turbos and a 10.4:1 compression ratio. There's an aluminum block and twin-cam head, cast aluminum pistons, and liquid cooling working on the exhaust manifolds and intercooler. The Cat 3 Huuricrate upgrades to forged aluminum pistons and rings, plus low-friction coatings on the wristpins. There's greater flow through the fuel injection system and additional cooling for the intercooler. A reduced 9.5:1 compression ratio and 26 psi of boost crank output to 550 horsepower and 531 pound-feet of torque.

The 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1's LT7 shares its capacity and basic architecture with the Z06's LT6 but makes 394 extra horsepower.

To most people, the name WD-40 is associated only with the lubricant and degreasing multi-use spray that is famous all over the world. However, not a lot of people know that WD-40 is actually the name of the entire brand, rather than a single product, and that brand has a lot more to offer than one multi-use spray.

A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

Last week, a 32-year-old was arrested on trafficking charges after allegedly fleeing from a traffic stop and abandoning the vehicle with a child in the passenger seat. The chase resulted in the discovery of 230 grams of methamphetamine, which the suspect allegedly threw out while fleeing on foot. According to local detectives, the vehicle the suspect was driving was registered to NFL football player Tyreek Hill.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

For a number of years, a company called Centurion Vehicles based in White Pigeon, Michigan, created a handful of models that The Blue Oval didn’t at the time – including large SUVs based on the F-Series, not to mention oddities like van/pickup conversions with dual rear wheels. These Ford Centurion models are quickly becoming red-hot collector’s items, meaning that this 1990 C-350 is more likely than not to attract a lot of attention at auction.

GM recently dropped the details on the new 2025 C8 ZR1. As an engineer who has worked in both OEM development and aftermarket performance, I’m nothing short of impressed. I spent the last quarter-century bouncing between walking the aisles of the Performance Racing Industry show and releasing engine calibrations that have been driven by millions of unsuspecting users around the world. I have seen lots of 1,000-hp engines. I have had lots of engines go to production after passing emissions, durability, NVH, and safety standards. I haven’t seen very many that did both. Sure, there’s the Bugatti ($3 million and 1,200 hp), the Aston Martin Valkyrie ($3 million and 1,000 hp), and the Ferrari SF90 ($540,000 and 986 hp, combined), but all of these are about as available as unicorn tears to mere mortals. Engines like the Hellephant make over 1,000 hp but have zero chance of passing emissions, so they’ll never be offered in legal roadgoing cars. What we have in the ZR1 is a real accomplishment, and a point where my two worlds seem to have collided.
