I actually asked my Dad about the plastic engine concept a few years ago. He said it's not possible because engines produce too much heat for plastic. In order for it to work, it couldn't be 100% plastic... SOME parts could be plastic, but it would need something to buffer from the heat.
Also, on a side note, wouldn't heated plastic cause toxins? I know they say not to drink water from plastic bottles that have been sitting in the sun.
In which case, I'd think a plastic engine would just be a bad idea. lol
Sorry... sorta a nitpick? lol
