[Vwdiesel] school casting project

[lbaird119 at aol.com]

  Actually I can't.  Terrible at that sort of thing.  :-(  Considering what the School's Gillig busses sounded like, it'd be kind of a higher pitched growl.  Those were fairly quiet and nothing like the screaming diesels I'd always heard about.

 Aye, that would be me!
 Could you imagine what that would sound like?

   How about building my "Deutchland Diesel?" (thusly named by Lee I believe.)    
ake a regular VW diesel, machine intake ports somewhat midway into the bore and 
raze an insert in to seal off the water jacket (hard part is figuring the 
orrect porting.  Add a supercharger and a manifold and you have the intake.  
ework a cam so that intake and exhaust valves are both running on "identical" 
xhuats lobes so it has twice the exhaust valve area.  Different cam belt and a 
rank gear that's twice the size and tada!  A two stroke VW diesel!  :-D
