Damn best of luck to you man. You don't hear too many ppl now of days really striving for bigger and better much less looking out for our economy. The cool part is your not alone! Sounds like you got one hell of a lady in your corner.

Definately interested in hearing more about this!

So, is this motor still only on paper or do you have a prototype yet?

Right now its on paper, Im selling the truck to be able to build the prototype, it wont be anything special but its to prove that it can work even in a primitive form. Ill most likely rent out a garage or something to work out of and I want to find a motor cycle or two cylinder engine to work with to make it as basic as possible... Also this would be able to convert most previous internal combustion engines as well.
