Any 'Lodge PT/WBs with Jake Brakes?
Opinions vary, but one (non BB) 8V92 w/Jake owner I know (he reads here but
doesn't post) says he could get about the same amount of slowdown by putting his
hand out of the window into the breeze.

Compression brakes on a 4 stroke like the Series 60 make a huge difference, but
on an 8V92 every stroke is already a compression stroke, so all you can do is
increase the time under compression.
