I am all for a successful demonstration of the Turbine Truck engine, as I am a shareholder myself, but there are questions I have about the practicality of the engine. They are:
1.) Will the 540hp prototype engine generate enough torque for heavy duty truck hauling?
2.) Can they modify the engine to fit into the bay of a truck (from the pictures of the prototype it looks like the size of desk)?
3.) What about the electrical, fuel management, A/C, etc. components of the engine?
