More specifically, the ignition system contains at least one spark plug having an elongated center electrical delivery electrode, and, an elongated ground electrode.

Abstract

An engine with a design for an inwardly opposed-piston, 4 cycle engine with a common, fixed cylinder and external induction system. The present invention features include a fixed, common cylinder in which 2 pistons move towards each other during the cycling of the engine, external, modular, fix mounted induction and exhaust system, multiple power take off shafts as well as additional cylinder/piston bank modularity. The production of such design provides for increased thermal, mechanical and volumetric efficiency as it relates to similar internal combustion engines.
