5 and 6 stroke engines.

i believe the only thing that will ever replace a 4 stroke gas engine or diesel engine, are ALL battery assisted and all out battery. those 5 6 strokes may be usefull for like specific apps but will never actually replace what we have now. imo

interesting articles tho
 
Very interesting! But I agree with the battery comment. Caterpillar just released a limited number of electric bull dozers. The have a smaller diesel engine driving a generator to power the drive motors. I believe this and the ford tonka project are the way of the future.
 
gay looking future... gota think, performance parts, tuning and just knowledge of all that will have to be rewritten. thats f*cked.
 
yea i like the part that the 5 stroke only gets 5 % better efficency then the 4 stroke.. but yet tho if you look at it on the 6 stroke article the 4 stroke gase is only 24% efficent so that would me the 5 stroke would only be 29% which said would me that the deisel is still a better engine cause it is 30% an the turbo deisel is 33%... so i mean everything will always have its pros an cons an like said above everything will have to be rewritten in txt books an everythign but if it does pan out i guess theyll have to make changes an us backyard junkies will have to relearn everything too.... another thing to add to my books.....
