I saw that Wards listed the GM 4200 inline six
in the 10 best engines in the world. I think
we might want to begin to take a closer look
at these inline motors as it appears the early
teething problems are solved.
It is hard to ignore the flat torque curve,
power and efficiency of these inline six
motors, a configuration which almost all manufacturers had given up on.
The older trucks would probably weigh less
than the current GM models. You don't really
need a supercharger as these motors can
go far beyond their stock output.
