All kidding aside, 3000rpm is 3000rpm no matter the engine.

Aw, I'm sorry. I thought it said "Diesel" at the top of the page instead of "Open".

Actually I'm trying to re-coop from some oral surgery I had yesterday. I was wanting to be sedated earlier as quoted in a song by Joey Ramone.
Now, I'm actually comfortably numb as a quote from a famous Pink Floyd song.

Ahh, never fear! All you need to do is travel to China first before you use it, then it will work in reverse since its upside down.

They tried "spinning" engines in aircraft in the early days. There was a bit of a problem with the gyroscopic effect.

Should I try putting the engine in a gyroscope to see how fast it spins at 3000 RPM's?
What do I do with my steam engine?
