Sorry this is so large but using the thumbnail method gives a smaller difficult to read version

Some snippets that I found interesting:
The flywheel weighs 120lbs about 1/8th the weight of the car.
The engine speed is controlled by a foot pedal that reduces the opening of the valves.
The water cooling system is assisted by an impellor pump.
