Dont really want to be a guinea pig as I would probably have to sell my body to science to pay for them
Couldn't see any thing about types available or pricing. Mind you only had quick browse.

If that worked, on a 4Cylinder, yes you could hit 20 000RPM probably (Well 15 000RPM most likely)
It's not the stress on the head that cause low red lines, it's all in how much can be moved in and out at a given time, and how much "load" there is (Resistance)
There was a huge article posted in here a while ago, I might have it bookmarked... I'll see...
Nope, sorry I dont... Might try and track it though... Was an excellent read on why Smaller 4 cylinder engines with DOHC rev harder then a pushrod V8...

With the crappy dumb ass rules in F1 surely such innovation would no longe be allowed?
However if we got rid of all the regulations then perhaps an innovation like this could help one of the teams take on (and beat) Ferrari.

Interesting.Maybe they have finally got it to work when lancia gave up on it years ago.
Just goes to show that everything gets another go eventually.
