The main thing would be the transmission...The auto will take more HP away from the wheels over a six speed. But it doesnt matter what you put the motor in, it will have the same crank HP in either vehicle.

The HP will be the same. However, you have to take into account the weight of the vehicle too. The same motor in the lighter car is going to feel a lot better than in the heavier truck. You will have to make more power in the truck to run with the car.
