Hi Chad
Dude, way to slip the surely bonds of lurkhood!!! That makes 3-4 posts in
two days! Doesn't it feel good to be part of the action!
I saw a new engine concept that's called "Dies-Otto". Thankfully they didn't
reverse the words, "Otto Dies"! It's a combination engine that runs on both
principals, spark ignition and combustion pressure combustion. It's a direct
injection into the combustion chamber gas engine. The engine primarily runs
on spark ignition but switches over to diesel at cruise speeds. Think of
putting detonation to work for you. Gets 40 mpg and has lots of torque. Enough
to
power today's full size pickups to 7.5 seconds, 0-60.
Check it out.
Otto
