Hi, this engine will be a horizontally opposed ( either a flat twin or flat four or six maybe ) engine.It's apparently 50% more efficient than the comparable 4 stroke engine.It's a very simple engine by the looks of things, i.e. no cylinder head.There are no spark plugs to buy for this engine, as it's a combustion ignition engine meaning the immense pressures inside the engine when both the pistons are close together ignite the air/fuel.I don't doubt there will be an ecu to control the fuel mix too.Here is the website showing a computer image of it.
