IMHO, unless you are running the Pan
Carrera Mexican Road Race, or moonshine through the Ozarks,
how much horsepower do you really require? (I know, I know, as any red blooded American male would answer; MORE! NOW!)
My point is that a well built and regularly maintained B-18 is fully adequate for everyday usage, and driven sanely might even get you a respectable 25+, or more MPG.
I mean, isn't 90 or 100+ horses enough to keep up on the roads nowadays?
Take those extra tire chains and cinder blocks out of your trunk, check your tire pressures, etc., etc. Just like they've been telling us for years!
The B-18 is arguably one of the most effective pushrod 4 cylinders ever built, and you get one already installed in your car!
Oh, well, I wax poetic, but I'm prejudiced.
