What kind of engine are you?

Options
So I was posting about engines as a metaphor for metabolism (sometimes you need to add more fuel to speed your metabolism up) and I got to thinking: what kind of engine do you see yourself as?

Me:
Chevy big block (572), high horsepower, high torque, high speed. Hampered by weight. haha!

    One that goes suck, squeeze, bang, blow. Or maybe suck and bang, squeeze and blow... on the same strokes. You know, like a weedwacker.

    DSM 4g63t. Because I care more about speed and power than looks. And tend to push too hard and break stuff.

    Toyota 2ZZ-GE. Small with a great power to weight ratio. Able to pootle along efficiently for mile after mile, then kick it up to the more aggressive cam profile and leave you in my dust.
