The puts the torque in the area of a 6 good cylinder and the horsepower in the area of a good 4 cylinder.

It’s speed and performance really isn’t much of an issue. I remember early 4 cylinders had so little torque that you could almost hold them in place if the person didn’t gun the engine.

My parents had a Datsun way back when that they’d have to gun it just to get over the curb into the driveway.
