There is a guy in the PA area that is using 3 rotor Wankels to power a full race specialty car. It looks like a Lotus 7 and, last I heard was gonna weigh in around 1600 lbs. Talk about a pocket rocke

Hello list: Since a few folks have mentioned rotary engine swaps for Spridgets (often with positive results) I thought that the following news item sounded interesting. Maybe I don't understand rotar

It might be a 2 rotor engine rather than 2 rotary engines? << how does one fit two engines in a single car? >>

I like the A-Series engine in my Midget. I couldn't see myself dumping it for something else. I've often thought about getting hold of a TR7 with a FUBAR engine and swapping in a rotary. For some str
