As the Imperial States of Hamanistan has more pressing jobs for our scientists and engineers, we are looking for an outside contractor to develop an engine that runs solely on ethanol.

What we are looking for is the designs of:

A heavy duty engine that can be used on a main battle tank, and one that can be outfitted on a light an/or medium tank.

We will also look into designs for ethanol burning engine designed for civilian use.

If you are interested in this post under here, or telegram me. I would prefer a telegram though. Once contacted I will work out a way to see a sample of your design.

occ:Sorry if this is a little vague but im pretty dern tired and im pretty dern tired.

More efficient than both standard piston and wankel rotary engines, the quasiturbine is the overall best engine technology yet. It is 5 times lighter and smaller, 20 times quieter, and has zero vibrations compared to standard piston engines. They operate at a constant speed at very low RPMs(1200), at a lower temperature, and require no gearbox. They can use almost anything as a fuel source, both liquids and gases.

We'll wait for other nations to submit designs that are directly suited to your needs before we sell you these, because they are much more flexible.

Have you looked into Sterling Engines or Cold Fusion?
Better than ethanol, which has extremely low power ratings.

I may end up looking at another type of engine if I can't find a suitable engine.

Sileetris I dont understand one word thats written on that site, perhaps a translation?

The United Socialist States of Schultaria Prime, in conjunction with the state-run storefront Designwerks, are willing to aid the Nation of Hamanistan as per their telegrammed request.

We, since our very declaration of sovereignty, have been completely dependent on Ethanol due to the complete lack of abundant liquefied fossil fuels. With over 50 years of experience in production, manufacture, and retrofitting engines from conventional fuel sources, Designwerks has the resources to help develop engines tailored to your specific needs.

Simply put, we are willing to listen to what YOU need, and we will design the engines you require while helping to retool your industry to compensate. We have had great success in assisting other countries break the endless cycle of fossil fuel dependency and we hope that we can be of some service to you.
