The omnivore was a good concept but I see more merit for turbocharged engines with high Static compression. They would run efficient on Gasoline during partial loads but they trade some power and efficiency at moderate to heavy loads. And then run at full power and efficiency with E85 or even a midgrade like the Ricardo engine.

I still see Ethanol as the power with efficiency option unless they start making Ethanol fueled Diesel engines in the US.

And 82mm 4g63, please stop calling the MPG loss efficiency loss. That word you keep using, it doesn't mean what you think it means.
The omnivore engine?

My last reply was literally quoted verbatim from what the experts are saying, I guess you should take their use of the word efficiency up with them? lol
