>>The main selling point of LP would be in durability
Um, I haven't seen them significantly promote that even rhetorically, much less with data backup. Replacing Wankel's ordinary tip seals with ceramic tip seals (yes, more expensive) and proper lubrication both improves performance and very much extends inter-rebuild time.
I'm definitely interested if you can point me to any data showing LP extended life. Their previous comparisons have been so bogus as to be laughable, such as comparing their weight vs some old military diesel generator-set (and not to the much more relevant Wankel).
>>LP doesn't seem to execute well.
Agree - that is the understatement of the year!
- aredox 3y agoLP doesn't execute well, so I don't think they can have data showing their engine has a better life span (which is dependent on more than just these seals). It just makes sense from an engineering, "first principles" point of view.
