If you want to install permanent magnets on engine internal moving parts AND electromagnets in the block or wrapped around a spark plug AND a control system to make the electromagnets pull or push on the permanent magnets, then you need to pay royalties to Doug Pelmear. After you negotiate terms.
I read about a Russian engine at least five years ago which from the description did the same thing.

International Patent and US Patent are different birds, from the sounds of it he cannot even afford the maintenance fee on the Patents. That would be another problem.
