Here are my levels of importance, do you think this is a good engine for me?
Price: Low (The importance is low, meaning I'm willing to spend $$)
Reliability: High
Torque: High (Very important on our small track)
Top-End: Low (It's a small track!)
Longevity: Medium
Top end in the red dot is medium to high. Longevity could be high as well if you change the rod after approximately 2 gallons. It is definitely the engine for you. For low top end, you may want to go with an OS TZ.
