inlines do cancel out the torsional torqu better than V configurations do. Due to the V design, there is a slight dipole of torque forming at the top of the V, that can be amplified with an unbalanced or unsmooth engine. The inline, however, cancels all most torsional strain and just runs smoother, and might be slightly more effective at trasfering a little more of the actual torque to the wheels. However if you just want the theoretical best answer, a flat or radially opposed engine (not practical) design is the best. These ratings of engines really don't make a difference for our intents and purposes. I believe that since most inlines require a good deal of space, also making them more spacious and easier to work on, makes some a little more inclined to praise it more than the V designs! IMO,
