Description:
I am an inventor and it always been my goal to design and make a more efficient engine for cars, boats, planes,etc. It finally became evident that the current engines are based on technology started over 100 years ago. But now we need greater efficiency than ever before. Current engines turn off some of the cylinders to sort of make a variable displacement engine. However, all the drag on the engine continues on the dead cylinders. So full efficiency is not possible. My engine keeps all cylinders running at maximum efficiency by gradually changing displacement while keeping the engine running at maximum efficiency. Also by moving one CAM in the engine it can easily adjust to all kinds of current fuels and those still undervelopment. This company has assisted me for over 12 years. All funds were my own personal funds.
