Perhaps efficiency would go up because of less expansion losses through those tiny holes.

Anyone have an engine on the way out willing to run an experiment?
Sounds like something someone over on the superturbodiesel forum would do. That or drilling out the holes to a larger size.

It is kind of nice to know a Glow Plug tip or fragments will not fall inside of the Engine.
