Was just wondereing what the difference is between the 1800 and 2100 rpm 12.7L series 60 engines. Is it just the rpm the engine is governed at or does it have something to do with the torque curve of the motor? Which one is preferred??

HP, 455 is usually 1800 and 500 is 2100. Huge difference in power.
