Default Beating the "Horsepower" Horse to death with a camshaft!

Denny, Would you quit pushing those E-Tec Water cooled Chain Saws! We pay good money for outboard motors and we sleep better at night knowing there is extra "stuff" werring around in our engines. Valve springs, cam chains, belts, sprockets, pulleys a such give you a sense of sophistication when you are out on the water. Life is complicated and we need to keep it that way no matter how much it costs. And don't be bring up any of that Pratt and Whitney engineering stuff about "power to weight ratios" or "cost of scheduled maintainaince" because we fully entrenched in the principal that "More is More" and that "Less is More" is just too old school. So wake up and smell the Double Expresso Caramel Micchiato with a splash of Creme de Mint and quit asking for black coffee.
