How do you design an engine to run LOP?



Compression ratio, cumbustion chamber shape, valve placement, valve
material, crankshaft counterweight design...............................



Example?



The original Continental in the original Malibu.


I've seen a claim to this effect on Avweb, but haven't seen anything
from TCM. Do you have any data from them that claims this engine was
designed differently for LOP operation? I'd like to see more details.
