Well...kinda but not quite.

A ramjet engine is the only engine that needs no moving parts. It is a pipe with a cone-shaped device in the inlet to compress the air, nozzles to add fuel to the stream, something to ignite the fuel and a narrow section about two-thirds of the way down to compress the burning gas and accelerate it to supersonic speed.

Ramjets only work if they're moving, and they're not really efficient until the plane gets up to Mach 3.

Why doesnt a ram jet operate statically?

A true ram jet can only operate if it is pushed through the air fast enough to compress the incoming air, mix it with the fuel, ignite the fuel causing it to be pushed forward to repeat the process. Many ram jet designs will not work below 600 miles per hour or 1000 kmh

Where is the distributor Rotor pointed when number one cyl fires on a 350 ram jet engine?

In a 350 Ram Jet engine, when the number one cylinder fires, the distributor rotor is pointed towards the terminal for the number one cylinder in the distributor cap. This position ensures that the ignition spark is sent to the correct cylinder at the right moment in the firing order, allowing for optimal engine performance. Typically, this corresponds to the first cylinder on the front driver's side of the engine.
