The end of the combustion engine as we know it?

[C.A.R.]

I work in the oil and gas industry in oz. the amount of wells that are being drilled around here, no chance of oil running out in 15-20 years. It may seem like it but that just drives demand/prices there's not a chance in hell of it going in 15 years.

This.
There's a f*ckton of oil out there.

Don't really see what you're gaining on this design (aside from the omission of a cambelt of course) that bearing is going to be under considerable stress and how the f*ck do the cylinders produce a good seal when they're rotating like that?

Also what about the balancing of an engine like that? In my head, having the weight off-set like that is going to work like a giant lady-pleasurer?
