Petter type engines

Can anyone point me in the direction of some technical information about petter type water-cooled 1500rpm engines please (are there some rated at about 6hp?). I need to know things like:-

- Combustion chamber design

- Compression ratio

- piston material

- which models are the most durable?

- how does their durability compare with a Lister CS?

- do they come with electric start?

Much appreciated.

I've just noticed that an earlier Petter post mentioned petrol. My interest is in diesels only.
