@hairles That article was out of an old car magazine presumably HOTROD. I even have the 'zine lying around somewhere if i stumble across it ill let you know a definitive answer. the overall concept was about fuelc harge temperature, very interesting theories regarding optimal temperature for gasoline atomization etc

he custom built a set of hemispherical heads for this 302 which made it one wicked motor.

info on Smokeys adiabatic engine can be found in 83 or 85? Popular Science or Mechanics??dont remember corectly now.
also try eng-tips com forums
the secret is its coated pistons and combustion chambers with ceramics to prevent meltdown.
its incoming air and fuel is preheated to about 900*.thats what gives it efficiency.

600? isn't that a bit optimistic, even with smokey yunick? I think its closer to 480-500... BUT I could be wrong.

Was hoping someone had the info on the time smokey took a 1984 fiero and got it to get 54mpg, would like to send it to all the so called experts and economist,with all there degrees, and all the talk radio and t.v.s shows.Any one knows where this info or article is?

Don't know... but I have also (in 2006, previous amelia island concours) seen Smokey Yunick's DMC12 Delorean which was #2 built and had his engine work done to it with its secret turbo/intake system.
