   Here is what I had in mind more or less.
   The small holes are for cooling oil into
   the rotor and pressure fed apex seals.

   The chrome molly or SS covers are flat head screwed
   to the base.

Your multi-sectional rotor could accommodate a special spark plug in the middle of the combustion chamber.  It might be possible to activate the plug by some type of magneto ignition where the primary is in the stationary part of the engine and the secondary is by the plug in the rotor.  Failing that it might be possible to put a slip ring on the eccentric shaft to feed power to the in-rotor coils. The plug could be removed thru the peripheral port.



Obviously an unorthodox system but perhaps some big combustion improvements and other sealing benefits could be had.  Might be worth testing.
