I know that since the inline six was gonna be put into engine bays designed to carry the weight of a big V8, they just made the I6 thicker and tougher than a regular 6, and it turned out to produce a nearly bomb-proof engine that produces the majority of it's torque in the low end, all of which is basically below 3k. which is good cause I never get downshifts or Torque converter unlocks going up any hill. good for the mpg's. And the 95 I6 even sounds like a diesel too a diesel that's not? sounds like it.
