Developed engine control system that could improve gas mileage by about 10%. Managed 3 cylinder diesel program - 85 mpg highway (then canceled). Indy 500 Pace Car engine design and simulation. Liaison with outside inventors, developing and promoting some of their ideas and many of my own. Reviewed GM Research projects for possible application to production vehicles. Worked with a NASCAR team (Junior Johnson/Darrell Waltrip) to improve their engines, and with legendary engine builder Smokey Yunick to develop several prototype engines.

Received full scholarship and summer employment for two years. During second summer invented and applied for several patents on a new type of engine control system that was ranked as the 3rd most cost effective way to improve fuel economy at GM (and 1st and 2nd were already slated for production). Was given $300K budget and small staff to design and build prototype while commuting between Cornell (NY) and Michigan each week of senior year of college. Finished work after hiring on as regular employee in 1980. The engine matched computer simulations exactly, for an average of about 10% increase in MPG.
