The millenia is a supercharged miller cycle engine...totally different.

And? What does the intake valve being open longer, during the compression stroke to pressurize against the supercharger rather than the cylinder walls, have to do with the pistons that is still within a Duratec block?

well, the millenia used a six cylinder, not a four cylinder, irregardless of the cycles.
The 2.3 is a four cylinder family. You might be able to take the 2.3 oil squirting system and convert it over, maybe its just a rail or perhaps it is individual jets that tap into an oil gallery.
That would be nicer!

Mazda had a 2.3L DOHC V6 Miller Cycle engine. Supercharged even. (210HP IIRC)

The millenia motor is NOT a duratec...that was my point.

Very nice! Those squirters look good, wish I'd known about them before, assuming we have an oil gallery in that area.

I'm gonna check where the oil gallery is on the Duratech. Must be somewhere in that vicinity. Only question is who is willing to sacrifice a block to try and retrofit squirter and the cost would be high. I'd be worried about to much oil pressure loss - and with these engines, it's something we've found out that we cannot afford at all!
