Ok Chris-

That is not what I am doing with my idea. My idea changes the piston motions/position/acceleration (all for the better) for a given crank angle/RPM. I have a few technical articles here that demonstrate the principles that I am basing my idea off of, and they appear to be very promising. They did not eliminate the wrist pin, however, or change any of the conventional design parameters of the piston/rod like what I have in mind.

I think you will be able to run higher compression ratios without fear of detonation with what I am doing.

Of course, this would require a complete tear down of the engine. Not fun.
