Surprising it does not weigh a ton for the diesel cycle compression.

Also since it is such a low RPM engine you figure it would be swinging a VERY large wheel. If that picture looks as a typical, that is surprisingly small for a diesel topping out in the typical diesel 2000-3000 rpm range.

Interesting. I wonder if it has the 3 or 4x the price as diesels do over gas engines?
