I've always preferred straight sixes. I've covered the bases, the 216 in a '51 Chevy, and a 240 ci in '80 that was the end of the line. I had the 170 in the Falcon, and my '86 F-150 has a 300 ci. Then there was the 225 slant 6 in a '60 Plymouth and a 62 Dodge pickup. They were all workhorses and easy to work on. > Mustang people don't want to ADMIT they were just Falcons with a > sexier bod bolted on I finally got around to a Mustang in '73, which was the last year before the Mustang II POS. Poor weight distribution and a big engine made it great for burnouts, not so great for winter driving.

It was his camper. My uncle had a radio/tv business when the repairmen still made house calls. He had a woody, then a newer wagon but I don't know the year. It was handy for carry tools, components, and for hauling a TV back to the shop if it couldn't be fixed in the field. > A place I worked had a heavy flatbed truck with a straight-8 ... dual > water pumps as I recall ... and ran on six volts.

Great road car but my wife's vocabulary got a little rough when she had to parallel park -- on power steering. Most of the big trucks are straight sizes. Do it right and a straight six has perfect balance, unlike a V-6. I only had one V-6. It was okay but due to a design weakness the rear main seal tended to rotate. When everything was lined up right, or wrong I guess, it would throw oil on the exhaust manifold. I got tired of people telling me my car was on fire. Then it would rotate a little more and all was good. > Seems like every trick and variation has been tried over the past > century.

The engine is a slightly more civilized version of the SV650 crotch rocket. The Sportster is a V-twin of course. No comparison between OHV FI and a push rod engine with a carb. Horses, courses.
