This thing is one of the most efficient combustion engine in the world. IIRC it use about 0.21 gallons of fuel per horsepower-hour. Similar engines have been used in combined heat/electrical generation facilites for years.
FWIW - it is a dry sump engine and the lube oil is continously filtered and treated while the engine is operating.
