Paul, The nsu engine looks like the perfect arguement for the variable intake timing you had laid
out some time ago. Some of the last versions of two cycle engines used variable timing in the
intake and exhaust to improve drivability, even on the GP bikes making 400 hp/l ! The comments
about the rotary I.C.E. still being a relative baby do ring true. A version of the variable inlet
seems a perfect fit. Any plans to persue or too many irons already in the fire? I know I would
like to help.

Ken was going to build up an engine with them but then he got
shipped off to South East Asia. Are you back yet Ken?

Other than the idle I think it has few advantage for an aircraft
engine as they mostly run from 5000 to 7500 RPM. A simple P-port
would give the same or better power.
