Teflon melts at conisderably lower than 800 degrees found in any 4 stroke engine's combustion cycle, well alone a rotary with its higher duty cycle.

If the teflon lasts as long on rotors and apex seals as it does on my pots and pans, its a big ol waste of time.

Ti expands quite a bit under heat expansion.&nbsp If you're going to go Ti, you'll need to go Ti for ALL parts!
