You can register using your Google, Facebook, or Twitter account, just click here.I know some people who work at US motor works. I asked the person i know he says its for a small 3 cyl engine thats in development. He says they have only sent 5 units for testing. I showed him the pictures he says thats probably it he isnt sure but its supposed to have a high demand in the next coming years.
Tell me if I am remembering this correctly, or if I am remembering a dream.
I think I watched an interview with Mr. Elio. He said that all parts supplied by companies other than Elio would have that company badging on it. I think I heard him say the engine would not be badged Elio but IAV.
If that is true, would that mean the engine could be sold on the open market by IAV? maybe even mfg. by Elio?
I was kinda hoping for an electric water pump to reduce parasitic drag on the motor. Oh well.....
The energy to drive the pump is coming from the engine anyway, whether it's driving a pump directly or driving the alternator to in turn power an electric pump.
There's no free lunch here.
