Seems feasable, but I would think that you would need to design the head to ensure combustion from the center, out.

while we are talking about dieseling can anyone explain this to me? I was readind in last's month Road and Track(i think or one of my other magazines anyway) and they had an article about a HKS modded Evo8 and they mentioned this dieseling problem at shutdown.


Now my question is...how can you have a car diesel when it has electronic injectors...you cut the ignition you cut the fuel and without fuel the car cannot keep dieseling....

am i missing something....the only explanation i can think of is some electrical problem that will keep the injectors running even with the ignition off
