I wonder, I wonder.........
The Subaru 360 is an air cvooled 2 stroke IIRC.
What about using a water injection system to supplement engine cooling and downsizing the radiator? Or going without a radiator entirely on a smaller engine?
I wonder that an air cooled engine would be able to heat up faster without the drag of the water pump. And having the higher temperatures might instantly vaporize the water to steam and give a bit of additional thrust to the combustion cycle?
I like the premise of the 6 cylce engine, as well as the suprisingly consistent numbers from one type to another.
