I suspect he's trying to hint that swaping out a Cam can make other
engines -- which may be much more desirable all around; low torquers.

At least *I think* that's what he's getting at :)

Just off the top of my head, the I6 has a longer stroke and greater rotating
mass, which makes it "torquey". You can't duplicate that by swapping in a
cam.
