Guys I appreciate all the help and the discussions so far.  It is making
me think and hopefully it is useful to someone else out there.  I now
plan to keep the 12A engine and do several series of experiments with it
to investigate these things.  I'll let the list know what I find out.
First I have to get the engine out of the car and on to a test stand...

I really am not interested in building a defiant though.  The MkIV will
be sufficient.  At the pace I'm going, I'll take years to get 'er done
anyway.
