I would say that the piston installation didn't break any laws of physics. They are merely complying with the laws. The laws dictate that the pressures and angles act on the pistons in a certain manner. The engineers, that designed the pistons, understood this better than anyone in this discussion. They designed an offset to minimize unwanted movements of the pistons and maximize efficiency. Choosing to go against this is most likely causing the noises in this engine. But he wants to blame it on the moon, stars, and everything else. I say, GOOD LUCK!
