I'm just an slightly average mechanic. My opinion is we (the people who pay), are gonna have solve the mpg problem. I telling my age, but i was watching nascar racing in the mid 60's and early 70's. Ordinary guy's who started out racing (with a little history in bootlegging in the 30's, 40's, and 50's. E'nuh of that, one of the best (engineer's, mechanic's or whatever) Henry "SMOKEY" Yunick. Hey, i don't have no degree in physic's, or engineering. I won't even try to explain thermal dynamic’s (but correct me if i'm wrong, a. {a liquid when heated expands in volume}, b. {a liquid's boiling point is increased by pressurizing it}, c. {a vapor under pressure cool's when it is allowed to escape}. However we do it, we are gonna have to solve this! The tinker's, mechanic's, modder's, hot-rodder's, or whatever. I just wanna hand the key's to my 85' small-block g-body to my grandson in about
20 yr's. (getting about 400hp 50mpg, i can dream can't i) It took only one college grad to figure out the trajectory to get to the moon an back. If anyone on the planet can, WE CAN. I think that ole nascar mechanic was on the right track.(no pun) intended) Besides how many patent’s do you have attributed your name, and how many nascar legend’s, people in the automotive industry, do you know on a first name basis. So before
you discount his idea. Do some research! I know i am.
