fitted to them) in which case you can take the V8 out and give it to me, then stick a rotary back in it, easy peasy!!!!!!

I know what you mean, I\'ve built our Grant his FD, next up is the RX4(pp\'d 13B),Mustang(almost finshed)!!!!- Trans-Am -half done( the hardest half) and then----- Arotary spinny thingy powered mini!!! This won\'t be started till all the above are finished(should be april next year) then we need to look for a mini shell.We just happen to have a pretty rare Elford turbo 12A in the shed for just such a project.-When I say \'we\' I actually mean \'me\' as it seems my two lads come up with the bright ideas then numpty here spends all his waking hours lieing on a cold garage floor executing them!!

My money\'s on a Rapide...

First things first dude, do you want NA or turbo?
With NA, it\'s going to need some largeish ports, and a few ol\' supporting mods - the block will need opening.

If it\'s turbo, it\'s pretty easy, and probably a fair bit cheaper, as you won\'t have to crack the block. The stock twin turbo\'s 13B from an FD RX7 will easily make 300 with just minor breathing mods and a bit more boost.

Yup, Rapid. Turbo is fine by me, It\'ll be a first as I just got my first turbo\'d car and its a Shogun diesel...
I\'m\'a gonna join that Irish Forum and find a local one for McBreakin\'. Light porting and some boost uppage y\'all say? easy peasy, I think.

Why a rotary? Light, rev-happy, it\'s (kinda) been attempted before, and the challenge is fun. Most engines have been put in to them, with varying degrees of success, but the only other light small engines dont develop enough power, or spin the wrong way...
