But why is that the case is it prop efficiency too long to get the motor in the power band worried about spinning the motor at high rpms for extended periods of time.

They don't want to spend triple on the valvetrain to make it work. And after the initial cost it's much more maintenance.

This is some really good stuff. I appreciate all the input and effort put into this debatable subject.
