On the other car, the revs will be kept at 4,000 rpms.

At the end of the experiment, your tear the engines down and inspect for wear.

Which one will show the most wear ...... or will they be the same .....??

The difference if any at all the would be so minor that you would not be able to see it.

The numbers look like it should be different but the engine does not care if it is doing 2,000 rpms or 4,000.
