Well I'm glad the questions in my head were the right ones!
At first all I could think was this will be awesome and probably blow the other 2 HD gas engines out of the water, then I started thinking wait why hasn't anyone done this before, which lead to how will a gas engine that's...
Which gets into if the gas engine will be able to spin like it needs.
That rotating assemblies weight and long stroke are a major limiting factor in how fast the 6.7 can spin.
Unless I'm completely wrong and missing something, which I'll gladly admit if you have the answer to whatever I'm missing.
I know on a diesel it's more fuel/air equals more power (I know that's an over simplification of modern diesels). Wasn't sure if on a modern electronically controlled forced induction gasoline engine if the same could be accomplished on the fly, to a certain point.
My concern is how something...
So it's the same rotating assembly, gas has slightly less energy than diesel.
What's keeping this 6.7 gas engine from producing near the same hp/tq as the diesel version? I assume compression ratio difference?
