So the new Impalla that chevy has released has a option for a 330 HP V8 with 28 highway fuel consumption.
Thats amazing. Just amazing. I wonder how far fuel efficency can be pushed? |

That's alright Jim, (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) IMHO, I feel that when there is so much engineering and so little progress regarding MPG numbers, that indicates the need for a fundamental paradigm change in the way engines operate. But that is just me. I did make a little 4 stroke motor idle using my own bubbler device. Crude is an understatement as to it's engineering but I know it works. I even brought a friend and his mom to witness just in case of doubters. =-) Keep up the good work and hope to see pics of that 2.0. Roger just another "out of the box" thinker, amateur engineer, designer, builder, 914 owner. PS. A little better data on the Pogue. See Data B. http://www.himacresearch.com/books/crisis1.html This post has been edited by rogergrubb: Sep 26 2005, 11:43 PM |
