Where the 5.7L 8-cyl sits in the 2500 engine lineup

Every engine family this model was sold with, ordered by size. The bar spans the model years it was fitted; the price is what cars carrying it ask today. Older engines look cheaper because the cars are older — the only fair comparison is an engine whose years overlap this one's.
