I missed it in March.

I don't understand the lower cost part when at least one set of connecting rods, block, intake/exhaust aren't mass produced.

Which is going to be bigger, this or the six stroke?

The opposed piston engine is nothing new.

The opposed cylinder is. WATCH THE VIDEO.

It's a good idea. But yeah this is older than the bread in my cabinet.
