Just to add more confusion, each rotor chamber displaces 1/4 of that, or
something like 327 cc.  There are a total of 6 chambers in a 2-rotor engine
for a "true" calculated displacement of 1,962 cc.

Can you point to a source for these numbers?  It's my understanding that
each chamber of a 13B displaces 654 cc's, which gives 1308 cc's for a single
rotation of the e-shaft. I've believed that for about 20 years, so I've got
a couple decades of unlearning to do if it's wrong :-)
