I posted the dyno results above. Insane torque, over 400 ft pounds at 1500 rpm. Its better then a diesel
Has anybody heard of these guys, they are doing some pretty cool things with valve technology. Here is the link...

That's an interesting idea, don't see why it wouldn't work, I wonder about long term durability, wouldn't want to see the results if one of those got gummed up or dirty and hung the valve open. I do like the original thinking.
That is a good point about the gumming up.......They are saying it is not an issue because of the more efficient combustion....I would like to see a motor with lets say 150,000 miles on it though. I am sure it would translate to boaters, but I was thinking more of towing, can you imagine the improved mileage, being able to tow your boat at 1800-2000 rpm up a grade. I really appreciate people thinking outside of the box so to speak. It is so easy to get complacent in this day and age.
