That sure a step in the right direction. Wonder if they can "dieselfy" it?

That’s some serious tech running the engine.
The HP for the displacement isn’t all that spectacular though. There are lots of Yamaha triple 1049cc engines in sleds that are north of 300hp some pushing 400. Those sled engines run fairly reliable at 290hp. Mine is 200ish without any engine mods....besides a turbo and a ecm map. Runs on pump gas.

Anyone remember the rotary valve? I honestly haven't paid much attention to new engine tech, I am happy just to have stuff run. Looks interesting though, pneumatic and cold though might be interesting too.

I remember reading about Coates about 15 years ago, they have been at it for a while. Interesting idea with rotary valve. Read that it is also not new, that this kind of idea has been used before such as on steam engines. Valve float is a typical barrier on max engine performance so Coates saying 14,800 rpm test run is certainly interesting. www.coatesengine.com/csrv-system.html |
