Paul, I couldn't open the jpg for some reason. Is this a turbocharged
engine? I'm still hoping that someone will build a 2 cycle turbo diesel
(Jet A) for GA. Continental took $20MM from the Govt to develop this and
it's elegant engrg, but I'll bet we'll never see it in our lifetime because
it would ruin their existing engine business. They have however
successfully locked up all the patents and will defend them to the death in
GA.



I will send it PRIVATE again.

BTW it is hogged out of a 500 pound block of aluminum with
a 3D NC mill.
