I've always wondered about a few driving practices I use in my everyday
driving. One of the ones I wonder about the most is the best way to handle
power.

If I'm going up a hill or just plain accelerating, I can use a lower gear
(2 or such) and rev the engine very high or use a higher gear (3) and
keep the revs down but stress the engine. On my newly rebuilt 70 BGT which
is more likely to burn the engine up faster or is this one of those no-win
situations?
