What is the rod that the connecting rods are connected to??? Vary that thing.

Using this in a V6 or V8 would be kinda hard. Maybe a I6 would be better. Maybe some type of hydrallic mechanism could be used, kinda like how the hydrallic system that works on brake caliper pistons.
You mean the pins? The crankshaft and the rest of the rotating assembly move too quickly over a 360 degree angular displacement. You wouldn't be able to plumb any sort of hydraulics thru the pistons to vary the pins.
