Go the Powertorque engine!
The relative simplicity, ease of doing repairs and maintenance, durability, ruggedness, and seemingly endless willingness to never give up, even on the thickest of weeds, shrubs, vines, stems -and even small trees makes them appear at the top of any list of contenders for “ best small engine” for push mowers, in my opinion.
There just doesn’t seem to be too many issues or significant drawbacks that appear on a regular basis, with these engines.
