Re: Cabon ceramic engine conponents

i know a few sports car teams tried to make pistons and maybe other internals from ceramics in i think the 80's or 90's. i think one of the problems they had is that ceramic is not as maleable as steel or iron or aluminum so ceramic stuff just shatters instead of mending or streching or moving a little.
