Sounds like a cross between a Wankel and an old GM A/C compressor. I'll
bet they have similar problems to the rotor seals on the Wankel. I also
thought that port valving was a poor way to go because of lack of proper
sealing.
Doubt the life expectancy of this engine will be as good as standard
engines. With newer materials and engineering this may be thw wave of the
future!
Peace,Pat
