Constant combustion wouldn't matter if the car is powered by Stanley Meyers fuel cell in a closed system, of course no plumbing and storage problems as the hydrogen is produced at the point of ignition so no explosion, no polution either from to much moisture, google it and be amazed, many people now have built it and it is now on line with their videos showing it works. Google the words Stanley Meyer fuel cell. Don't be fooled by the garbage fuel cells that won't run without gas. They are a fraud but have payed the most for adds on Google, boy does that suck

Wouldnt constant combustion mean horrible gas mileage.

i saw the web site and i can see what you are talking about and i can understand that they used a test engine to tweek the design. the engine is actually supposed to be for an airplane not a car but as for what happened to the wankel engine will probably happen to this one it'll be used for some overprised sports car that most shops will not even touch. but, then again it does look to be a much simpler design than the rotary so we can only hope for the best. 1 hope it passes emissions. 2 they make it inexpensive to maintain. 3 and that it is at least put into a car that looks good. and it would be nice to not have to worry about breaking a crank.hahahahaha

It's a 4banger boxer motor that subies have you see that big pulley in the middle, that the crank

revetec.com says that the pistons are in an X configuration with 4 cylinders.

the absence of a crankshaft allows the engine to retain alot of stress caused by all the moving parts under pressure... the constant combustion theory suggested here comes from the ability of that relieved stress to be added into your cam and pistons therefore more rpm and more gas bruning... i'd love to see the rpm guage on this when and if it ever comes out lol... probably starts at 5k more haha

Looks like a V4 to me. Delete this BS.

yeah i didn't see anything that should of impressed me. next time give at least somebody else's dyno sheet.

Don't Waste your time reading all the comments. This video was posted by a 14 year old Kid, This Engine only makes 79HP Look at his profile....
Also look at previous comments

Umm, I'm 13 years old and am VERY mature for my age. I won't take that as a n insult though.

IT DOES NOT MAKE 800 HP,
I Called the Company and Asked them,, They never had an engine that had 800+ HP, they have a 6 Cyl Aircraft engine that will have 300+
