mb893 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 The bit you missed was just were a light weight kit-car doesn't need it. so Always wrong (sigh), ? Nope, just more focused... "Torque always there" = torque low down were you don't need/want it in a lightweight kit-car, you know, it's called wheel spin at tick over, wheel spin gently pulling away at the lights while not actually touching the go fast pedal, wheel spin trying to get it on a trailer without launching it over the roof of the tow car, etc etc etc BTW, does that say 284.2ftlbs at under 3Krpm? What's this engine in, an ocean liner? I never knew you could get lumps of coal down the choke of a Holly, where do the stokers sit?
