Diesel Pressure - Wow!!!

The Mercedes / Bosch design used 1100 to 2000 psi - sort of a piss dribble to
the diesel world - but at least 25 times better than standard port injection.

But since you asked - a SWAG ( scientific wild ass guess ) - probably nothing
much.  Diesel is far easier to compression ignite than gasoline - centane vs
octane - so gasoline should be far safer ( from pressure ).

Lubrication would still be a problem, but with the piss that is the current
low pollution diesel, its a problem anyway.

But from combustion point of fuel - the mixing would be incredible.  

Course I could be full of it.
