Thank god that the general public is demanding more efficient, and cleaner burning engines. As our administration isn't. And the manufactures are still responding to the public. The piston will still go up, and down for a while. The camshaft will be the next major part to go. The mechanical parts now used for valve operation. Just can't be controlled to the extent that will be required. The valves will need to be computer controlled. An electric solenoid of some sort will be needed. I drought that the type of valve now used. Will be up to the task. Due to it's mass. And the combustion chamber turbulence it creates. As I have reservations that this turbulence issue can be resolved as is. Electronic fuel injection well need major changes to match up to the new combustion chamber designs. As the spark plug will no longer be needed. The crankshaft, and rods will have a more sleek shape. To reduce the load resistance to rotation that the oil spray in the crankcase creates. This is my crystal ball of what's to come. It's exciting to me. You'd never have any hint that I'm into engines. Bob Dunahugh A true engine NUT CASE
