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 .....??

Assuming the were both broken in and driven the same, the measurements would be so close as not to matter. I'm assuming oil and filter changes.

Ermax needs to give us his definition of "cruising" and "extra wear".
