Lines: 12 An article recently appeared in a popular magazine -- Popular Science, I think -- which reported on Smokey Yunick's developments. He's keeping things pretty quiet, apparently because everyone else is trying to figure out how he keeps the air-fuel mixture from detonating with such high cylinder wall temperatures. The high temperatures involved, together with utilization of would-be waste heat, lead to high efficiency. His two-cylinder engine generated 150 HP. By the way, I think it's "Yunick."
