So the 60's part is ignorant inference, the terrible heads is the ignorant generalization, and the premise in full is the plain old lie.

I remember reading that rally cars or awd cars focus more on torque, but that would be where cam specs come into play rather than head flow right? If subaru had cylinder heads and said, "Okay, we want more torque." They would turn to cam specs. Do you have flow numbers from any of the boxers? I'll look, but I'm new at this internet thang, I usually be out hasslin da streets and e-thuggin
