    OK Radial Nirvana, here is an interesting Radial Engine that may interest some of you. This would make for a truly Experimental Aircraft Engine.

    I must say I agree! When my daughter was 8 or 9 we went on vacation, as my wife was driving through the mountains in Colorado, for every sharp turn or steep down hill grade we would hear her yelling "We're gonna die!"

    I didn't like the rocker arms hanging out in the breeze, one bird and a hell could break out.

    I would expect the rocker arms and push rods would get the better of most birds. My windshield would be a more delicate area! It, like all radials, just looks cool. Also I am jealous of his machinist abilities.
