Kelly,

great pic! This also shows that there seems to be very little space to make the dish in the rotor deeper for a lower compression ratio.

Do you know how much one could mill out of the rotor before it gets critical? Obviously the idea would be to modify the NA-rotors for turbo use.

Rotors are cooled by oil spray from jets in the eccentric shaft .
