   My heavy lifter engine has an important igniter to design.   
   An aluminum screen is given a cylinder geometry.  It   
   serves also as a mould for the engine chamber.   
   It is coated with a suitable electric fired flaming glue.   
   The glue very quickly fires the whole camber, igniting the safe kind of fuel.   
   This two purpose design allows poring the engine fuel   
   very simple.  A graphite bottom engine cap with a central hole   
   forms the flame escape.   
      
   If you want one the cost is no less than $30K for a prototype with   
   all the engineering tested.  Meaning you have to supply your   
   own fuel.
