I just got an e mail from Zoche diesel the other day, they are near production he said. I went to their site at http://www.zoche.de/zoche_brochure.pdf and it looks the same but a lot of the text has been changed.
Their 150 HP at 185 lbs with all acc burning 5.5 GPH and the 300 HP at 270 pounds and 11 GPH, and all this on road equipment and stove oil diesel? Man, thats less than $ 2 bucks a gal. I would (will anyway as auto gas is so much cheaper too) put a fuel tank in the truck bed to fill my plane myself.
If they come through (been gonna for years now) it will sure be a blessing. They say motor makes less noise than prop without a muffler, so you can never even hear the engine. Has a lot of new innovations and advanced features, one piece cylinder and head for no gasket to fail or bolts to tighten or leak, no hoses, belts, starter/generator one piece built in direct drive, no PSRU, etc etc. Their sites a nice read anyway. One clean neat little package for sure.
