Thanks for the info btw warmonger The problem should be better regaurdless because the combustion chamber + cylinder volumn will make the air going around the back side of the intake valve (side farthest from the exhaust valve) have more space to fill into before overscavaging happens. This doesnt do anything for the closest sides but you could go as far as to say the cylinder will be nataurally more restricted so this will cause more downward vacuum as opposed to cross vacuum from the negative wave in the exhaust port causing less overscavaging as well. Higher compression pistons should also help to keep the over scavaging down.

Shorter rods also to keep tdc dwell down and draw more into the chamber instead of having all that dwell time where there is no downward piston movement.

Lots of good info in the sae article.

IIRC, all future DOHC engines will carry the Duratec name along with them - that's how they will be distinguished. The architecture of the engines may be entirely different, just the same name...essentially the Duratec family will be growing immensely, but don't think that just because it has the name, it will work as an upgrade to a Contour, Taurus, Jag, etc, etc...

With a class-leading interior room, hopefully Focus will not repeat the failure of Contour.
