Wouldn't any injection after the exhaust port closed preclude, overlap
affecting mileage?
A conventional injector(s) above the intake port would be in a cool low
stress area.
Easy to do................
Injecting across the hot rotor face would get things atomized quickly.
No mass being added to the inducted air column. So curves in the intake
tubes wouldn't screw things up quite so badly.

That might be right Lynn. I was thinking mainly about the BSFC issue and the auto industry seems to be going with high pressure right into the combustion chamber so I assume there is something to be gained from that, maybe stratified charge, I'm not sure what the factors are.
Powersport (the original with Everett Hatch) tried fuel injection into the oil injection ports in rotor housing but Everett said it did not work well for some reason. No details though.
