Todd has published his efforts on the Barn. Try the search utility again. I know he is not very active here.

I have about 1,500 miles on my Burtz engine and it is still improving as it frees up. Each time I take it out, it impresses me again and again and I congratulate myself on making the decision to buy one.
I bought it for the almost indestructible bottom end. I did about 45,000 miles on an original engine rebuilt for the purpose of towing a camper trailer through the outback. While it is still going, I expect this engine will have way more stamina.
