I haven't encountered many good V6 engines, I'm not really sure
why
but
they seem to be much less robust than inline 6's, perhaps it's
the
compact shape?

Depends on where in the power band. Inlines, because of the
relatively
short stroke, and big bores, have a lot of low end torque. Modern
V6's
on the other hand, because of the configuration, are longer
stroke,
smaller bore. Top end torque. Nissan makes a bitchin' V6

Do you ever get sick of being wrong?

Show me. Or shut up.


Torque is relative to crank throw- longer stroke = more torque, not
less
as
you've stated.

Now will you shut up? Hmm, so I take it that you think torque is
relative
to ONLY stroke?? Are you REALLY saying that?


Everything else being equal (# cylinders, displacement)- yes.


Now that's just a plain stupid answer!


How so brain sturgeon?


I'm not a brain surgeon. But, since I suppose you aren't even bright
enough to realize how stupid your answer was, I'll dumb down my
response so that you MIGHT understand it. Of course if the ONLY
variable you wish to change is stroke, then of course it would change
the torque. BUT, now try to hang in there, if you changed the bore, the
torque would also change. The real measurement would be to change the
stroke AND bore to keep the same displacement.
