still looking... 700

i'm still keeping my eye out for a nice 740 to upgrade into. i currently have an '88 244dl and love it but it's getting a little dated for the wife. i have found a pretty nice looking '90 740 non-turbo that i'm gonna look at this weekend. my question pertains to the engine: what is the power difference between a non-turbo 244 and a non-turbo 744?? as it is now, i have to get a running start to be able to 'jump' into traffic. will i notice at least an improvement in take-off?? i don't care for top-end/low-end power or anything like that, i would just like some 'traffic' power.

thanks for all the responses,



Bubba
