Explanation: the 617 has one more cylinder than a 616 (of course I know that you knew that, it is just that new math that Nate is talking about ).
EDIT: I must have had my head in the clouds, I meant one more cyl, not two.
of course!

Talking Gotta Be -OLD-........

To remember the 'new math' of the 1960's, it was crazy .

As noted Harvard Professor Tom :Lehrer put it ' the point it to understand what you're doing, not to get the right answer' .
