    but if you just wanted a moving model, it sure would be pretty.
    I will try to google it to see if someone has done it.
    Good point...but it could be really think glass...like really really thick glass.

    Yeah, a massive thick cube, with a real low pressure combustion, just enough to make it all go around. Metal parts, just a transparent engine block. Good idea for some eccentric bastard with masses of money! Or maybe a solid cubic meter of diamond.

    Nah, that'd be reserved for Posh's next engagement ring.

    Edit: come to think of it having a cubic meter diamond ring with a working engine inside might be right up her alley...

    WHAT??! Posh and Becks can't break up! Their relationship is the very foundation of Western Civilisation! If they fail then the hordes of Mecca are upon us.

    Yeah and a crappy flame-front. all the fuel burn is around the edge of the intake as if it's slightly leaking. Good spot ont he mixture, I hadn't seen that.

    Looks like three and a half strokes to me.

    Intake, compression, power and the first part of the exhaust stroke.

    Remember, more that two strokes is a wank.

    My guess is that they ran out of tape/storage on the high speed camera.

    The intake cycle makes me think of the human heart. Funny that.
