You are RIGHT about the comparative displacement. It IS 132.5 cubic inches versus 175 cubes for the Chevy. But that's what this board is about: the exchange of ideas; many brains are bigger than one. I don't see how it could work if you rotated the cam plate, and didn't rotate the cylinder. Those cruciform upper and lower piston plates have to be attached to the output shaft. The engine is started by rotating the output shaft. The cam followers in the piston plates follow the ascending ramps pushing the pistons up until two pistons fire at the same time. Then the cam followers travel down the descending ramps. The output shaft has to turn in order to follow the ramps. If you tried to rotate the cam plate instead, the output shaft could not be connected to the upper and lower piston plates. Piston motion would not turn the output shaft.
