Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Or, a 400lb-ft diesel that revs to 9000rpm!

See, that's the difference between me and you. You're an optimist.

Yeah, I know. While I was writing that I was thinking how it was really backwards.

Somehow, I doubt you could funk with the rotary's geometry enough to get the compression high enough for reliable compression ignition.

Maybe if you supercharged the living snot out of it...

I have now invented the 4-sided rotar rotary engine. It's basically a square that rotates in a triagle-shaped chamber, on dual planetary gears, with extra long powerbands and dual turbonators. It makes 900hp at 1000rpm, gets 80mpG, burns sunshine and its only exhaust is rainbows.

Interesting. I had a similar concept a couple years back, but it ran on girl farts. I just couldn't capture enough girl-fart gas for fuel.
