The "spikes" on the piston rods are hollow tubes that go into the holes you can see on the bottom of the pistons (left picture) and inject oil into the inside of the piston which keeps the top of the piston from overheating. Some high-performance auto engines have a similar feature where an oil squirter nozzle squirts oil onto the bottom of the piston.

Is that a similar thing that BB were working on for the c1j?

I have had some zetec jets fitted into my mini engine for this past year with the idea of cooiling the pistons! :)
