Not boxer because is doesn't actually have opposed cylinders, it's actually an inline engine with opposed pistons just like those Fairbanks-Morse Model 38 engines.

But anyway, I'm not sure if the gasser version will be actually released, even though the Diesel seems in fact promising. Achates Power has some partnerships with Cummins and Fairbanks-Morse which may be a sign of the viability of their concept.

Well, I'd like to see how they would make it run on CNG and biomethane instead of gasoline, or maybe ethanol.
