Re: inline 6 vs. 283

I drive mine like a low gruntin diesel in town, starting off in 2nd unless I have a load or upgrade and chugging around corners in 3rd without lugging. I played with the timing advance and with an A/F gauge, going for that snappy throttle response. On the highway it's turning 2300 @ 65 so that's the target sweet spot.
