My racing partner, Bob Wismer (an ex-Deere engineer), found it to be amazing. 
 He finds it looks very different from a direct-injected diesel engine, which 
he's seen many times. He also said if this was his engine head, I would work 
on "swirl."

I don't know what that means, but I'll ask him to explain it at one of our 
MID-OHIO breakfast meetings (unless Shirley makes us talk about quilting).
