I must admit, one of the most interesting things from where I'm sitting (as a non-mechanical engineer) is the reversal of the cylinders. In my head, it always seemed strange that the inward bound air is drawn from the rear rather than the front, and the reverse with the exhaust where the airflow could assist in clearing the gases.
