I just read about this in the latest issue of the TDR and it mentioned it. The specs on it are very interesting...the prototype was 270lbs, dynoed 325hp and made nearly 600ftlbs of torque. Thats pretty impressive from a twin cylinder engine that weighs that little
Suppose to be super fuel effecient also because of the lack of parts. No cam, no valves, rockers, push rods, ect. And the article mentions because of the design and the way the force is being applied to the crankshaft the main bearings are almost under no load all the time. It litteraly floats where its at. Pretty bad ass.
I put new in "" cause its an old design Even the article says it was developed by Hugo Junkers in WWII. We just havent had the technology to use it really.
