An internal combustion engine in which the piston (10) rocks about a pivot point (60) with the piston (10) being connected adjacent the end remote from the pivot point (60) to a connecting rod (12) to drive a crankshaft. The piston (10) has a first arcuate sealing surface (41) and a second arcuate sealing surface (42) which is offset radially from the first sealing surface (41) with the first and second sealing surfaces (41, 42) being connected by a floor (44). The first arcuate sealing surface (41) seals against a correspondingly arcuate wall (51) of the combustion chamber (20) and the second arcuate sealing surface (42), which forms one wall of the combustion chamber (20), seals against a wall (52) of a boost chamber (53). The engine can be compression ignition or spark ignition and can be of the two-stroke cycle or four-stroke cycle.
