Imagine dumping the big V-8 in your SUV for a 25-pound, 2.4 liter engine that gives you 150 miles per gallon on biodiesel - with a boost in horsepower and torque to boot. Meet Raphial Morgado and the little engine that could... With up to 40 times the power to weight ratio of a conventional engine, flexible fuel compatibility, a displacement of 850 cubic inches and the torque of a 32-cylinder engine, the MYT is the beginning of a new paradigm for engines in the 21st century!
"The inspiration for the MYT Engine design came from the need to have an engine that can stand up to the tremendous abuse of drag racing. After literally blowing up more than my share of engines during racing, I swore to myself that I'd build something that met the required needs while providing higher-durability & reduced complexity in the process. Also, because this design was originally intended for the output demands of the drag-strip, I wanted a design that would give me the largest displacement, highest torque, and lightest weight available. The Massive Yet Tiny engine meets those needs, with 850 cubic inches of displacement, 32-pulses per cycle, and a 150 pound package measuring only 14" by 14" in diameter."
"By replacing an 800 pound V-8 engine with a 25 pound MYT and running it on biodiesel, we can achieve 150 miles per gallon in an otherwise conventional vehicle -- plus, you're going to have better take-off and stopping power by removing that 800 pound engine. That's what we can do. It is achievable." - Raphial Morgado
The MYT engine is the result of a $4 million dollar R&D project undertaken by Angel Labs LLC to build the ultimate internal combusion engine. Inspired by drag racing, inventor Raphial Morgado designed the engine with a focus on power, torque, and fuel-efficiency to meet the hefty demands of the today's automotive applications in a lightweight package. The result was a revolutionary design with a power-to-weight ratio up to 40 to 1, over 3,000 ft/lbs of torque, and a diesel-mode mileage in excess of 150 mpg!
This series of 3 videoclips provides an in-depth look at what the MYT is, how it works, and why it's important. The "Los Angeles Auto-Show Presentation" features a 10-minute commentary on the technology by inventor Raphial Morgado, and provides details on the background of the engine and what makes it so unique. The "MYT Engine Description" clip is a 5-minute narrated animation providing a walk-through on the operation of the engine and how it compares to traditional interal combustion technology, and the "MYT Engine Testing" video shows both a closeup rotation of the cylinders in the Angel Labs prototype, as well as 2 minutes of test-videos shot with the MYT in dyno-testing on a 150-psi non-combustion airstream.
THAT"S WHAT THEY"RE DOING!!!!
geez.
Investor Warning
Angel Labs, LLC is not publicly traded
Recently, we have received many emails inquiring about investing in Angel Labs, LLC. Some have said that their stock broker quotes $1.50 for our stock. This is not possible. These references must be to an unrelated or non existent company. Angel Labs, LLC equity is not publicly traded or available and our private placements have been limited to accredited investors. Our ultimate business goal is to spin off companies that utilize our technologies and can go public, and that's probably a few years down the line. Angel Labs, LLC has 100+ inventions that cannot be revealed to public before being awarded patents, so we can not foresee it going public (mainly due to the difficult valuation issues). Please be on guard for fraudulent promotions. Thanks.
Ditto on all your observations. I also wondered about the perceived variable "phasing" of the two rotating assemblies. There may not yet be a practical working model, but still, I see some possibilities.
Man, I SO hope you are right! It would indeed change the world if the U.S. no longer needed the ragheads for much oil.
Modern CNC machining can cut and polish any shape you can dream up in a CAD program. It's common practice, these days, to use a small ball end mill to engrave text into a metal plate.
"There goes a new design for the history heap."
Methinks people are going to buy old Popular Science and Mechanics Illustrated magazines to come up with revolutionary new concepts in motor design.
His name doesn't show up in the US Patent Office online database for published applications.
Woops, it does under Ralph Gordon Morgado.

I think this guy is on to something....If Washington were smart, they would subsidize racing with prize money rather than pork to congress......
They certainly seem to be as transparent about all this as they can be.
Nope. Not gonna say it.
I type my fingers to the bone posting straight lines and nobody appreciates me...

Sounds like the "cold fusion" fiasco of a few years ago!
By that time I knew the boss was a scammer (a French one). What was I gonna do. He still owes me my last paycheck.
The reason they ran it on compressed air is they could'nt get it working any other way. Be very skeptical.
In that video, he had a prototype powered by a tank of compressed air, just to demonstrate the mechanical function of the engine. He measured the torque at the driveshaft. It was pretty impressive for only having an input of 150 psi or something, which dropped off as the tank emptied.
I believe they are working on a fuel powered model. Automakers are involved.
Anybody who only knows one way to spell a word has no imagination.
lol those two posts right after each other- that's hilarious!
Tires have something to do with it, too. A tire with a coefficient of friction of 1 (just a bit higher than regular tires) can only hit about 200 mi/h. (Some used to think accelerations of over 1 g weren't possible.) Now they put a high friction coating on the track, use higher coefficient of friction tires, use wings to push the drive wheels down, and use special clutch/transmissions to control tire slip. They are getting effective coefficients of friction of around 3, which lets them top 330+ mi/h.
