Fantastic. I have a half-completed steam car in my garage. I’m building it myself.

Building your own steam car...now that's something.

Really, external-combustion steam power is an idea that ought to be on the road today. If this technology had been developed alongside the Otto cycle engine, we would have some truly modern and truly efficient designs today.

Gotta love the torque curve on those bad boys. They make peak torque from a standing start...

Al Gore will be so proud of you. After all, he thinks the internal combustion engine is Satan.
