    Into the weeds engine design for fuel efficiency discussion.

    A large engine operated at 3000 rpms with a slight throttle opening will get better mileage than a small engine at the same speed at WOT. Put a slant six in a one ton truck and try to haul a load up a grade while getting more than 8 mpg. A 440 can idle up the grade and beat the mileage of the...
