My dad has a drag boat and this will be his first year racing. Its a berkley jet drive with a chevy 454 in it.
Welp, ive convinced him to rotorize it!!! We've got 7k (actually more but he wants to make that the engine budget) to spend on a 3 rotor 20b rotary engine for it. Whatcha got? Were racing it against pistons.....i wanna make them cry. What kinda packages are there? |
There arent really any "packages"
Find a 20b Rebuild w/ a big arse port and a big turbo and have fun. can turbos and boats mix? |
yea they can but hes supercharging it i think, u can SC a rotary right?
I thought maybe you could buy them reman and ported like you can 13b's. |
Atkins has 9" and 12" SCs for the 20B.
|
i couldnt find a listing on actual 20b's there tho : (
|
you need torque for drag racing boats, not sure if you will
get all that you need. a stock 454 probably has more torque then a modified 20b |
i was thinking the difference in weight combined with the fact that the rotrs spint he same way as the jet drive would make up for it. The races he will be in are from a rolling start.

hmmm, i figured there was a reason people dont use the rotories in racing boats too often but i assumed it was because they dont know or understand them.
