Claim:
1. A combustion system for an engine, comprising: a cylinder block that defines a cylinder bore and opposing pre-chambers located along a circumference of the cylinder bore; a fuel injector located equidistant from the circumference of the cylinder bore that injects fuel in a direction perpendicular to a diameter of the cylinder bore; and a piston located within the cylinder bore that has a substantially conically shaped crown having fuel direction grooves that direct the fuel from the fuel injector towards the opposing pre-chambers, the fuel direction grooves becoming narrower toward the pre-chambers, wherein the fuel direction grooves are formed at locations corresponding to the pre-chambers, respectively, such that the fuel injected by the fuel injector is directed through the fuel direction grooves to the pre-chambers on the circumference of the cylinder bore.
