I don't think there was enough web thickness to do a booster version of the D44. I know that there were none made up. I don't remember what the delays were made up - maybe Mike Hellmund would know.

We looked at using the NCR igniter for the engine, but we never got the cost down low enough to go in a BP motor pack.

One 'o these days, I'm gonna turn an E9-P into a D44-0...
