    Madzda did not invent the rotary engine, it was first build by NSU and the car was the RO80 with 115 horsepower. The inventor was Wankel and the engine was called Wankel motor.

    I owned an original Mazda RX-7 with a staggeringly tiny engine but make no mistake, it possessed the torque of a diesel V8 truck motor and the horsepower of strick road prohibited race modifications, further it had an unlimited RPM range,"without worry about winding it out or damaging it, performance wonder the size of a carry-on suitcase!"
    P.S. Although, a young inexperienced man regarding automobiles during my ownership, a Masters degree in aerospace engineering I still recommended, before one should attempt crucial repairs! When it ran properly, it was like no other automotive experience, simply bewildering, satisfying and inimitable, to this day!

      The Spitfire guys enjoyed it a bunch as did the P51 pilots.

    I don't really think any engines were built to 'confuse'.

    Although the sleeve valve engine was not generally a high revving engine, and thus not high horsepower for its size or weight, its "superpower" was longevity. Cylinder wear is normally greatest at the top of the stroke, where the piston momentarily comes to rest at the "hot end", and the piston ring lubricating oil film can break down. In the sleeve valve engine a point on the cylinder traces a 'figure 8' on the sleeve, never coming to 'rest', with improved lubrication and dramatically reduced cylinder wear.

    the one that really attracts me is the Deltic.. 18 piston, combustion chambers created by the pistons. Been thinking around about this for more than a little while now. Even thought about making a Deltic into a petrol engine. Lets say be make the pistons work out to make their triangles equal 6 liters (displacement of 18 liters, this thing would have to give you a thousand horsepower, smooth as glass. Also thought about taking the exhaust gas from one triangle and feeding it (along with a little petrol) to the next bank). Making up 2 six piston fresh levels and 2 6 piston exhaust sets.

    How is that Nissan engine leaking oil in CAD?

    Not a single one of those motorcycles had a duke engine, the ktm is a normal piston engine, the suzuki was a 500cc twin rotor wankel engine, and the hercules was another rotary bike with a single rotor engine

    Oh your chinese water drive engine does not work on the face of it from your description. Let phrase it this way, first we find energy from somewhere to break up water, then we burn the water to propel the ship and make more water. This is called a perpetual motion engine. You can not get more energy than you put in and here is what you explained

      Exactly what I thought when I heard the description - As described, it cannot ever produce more energy than what was used to electrolyze the water. Indeed inevitable losses guarantee it will produce less.

    The caddy 864 was and is the biggest failure in gm engines. FMS or displacement on demand which destroys engines at predictable low miles. I would put this engine in the dumbest engine catagory.
