Great stuff"......at the right level could produce many oz jobs!

I'm not mechanically minded, but it sounds great for diesels.

That's brilliant.
NP99 unfortunately were fubar for manufacturing here I think. Maybe saving grace that countries like China will steal their idea if manufactured there, so maybe there is hope

certainly aiming for the big bucks.
I saw somewhere where someone has nearly perfected the perfect auto too

Yea I'm with you. Doubt it will make 1 Aussie job. It'll be sold to all the overseas companies and we'll buy it back..
But good on em for having a crack. I don't doubt we'll be seeing this in top end cars, if not race cars very soon..

Sounds very interesting I must say, but tend to agree it won't go to production here.

This sound awesome, it could change heaps.

It's old tech, being used in a new way. A ringless engine already exists :)
