I cant think of or see any reason for this in the rotor housing. At least in my application.

pinning...
adding extra dowels and/or tension bolts to strengthen the motor and resist flex.

Have you actually looked to see what you would be pinning to if you did that?...

I would have to desagree with you on it , the dowel pinning takes place on the spark plug side between the two stock dowel pins .
check this out so you can have an idea what I am trying to explain

pinning isnt always done in the same spots.
in the picture he posted, that might of been a test housing for a failed attempt. Or an unfinished project.

Every housing I have has that. I think they all do.
Its only on one side of the housing. Unlike the stud holes that are cast all the way through.
