[08:59] Steve: Say, 1979 [08:59] Steve: ish [08:59] Joe: HEY, I WAS JUST BEING BORN THEN [08:59] Steve: Yeah, I was negative two [09:00] Joe: NO KIDDING [09:00] Joe: HOW MANY MILES ON THE RX-7?

I'LL SEND YOU THE LINK WHENI FIND IT, YOU'LL BE AMAZED. [09:16] Steve: Cool, [09:16] Joe: IT WAS AN AIRCRAFT ENGINE THAT WAS DROPPED INTO A CAR Any truth to that? |
maybe they measured the displacement differently.
|
true, you did take a smoke break.....
|
that was the 787b i think it was the 26b so thats 2.6L
|
Holy crap - Curtiss Wright made a 31500cc single rotor that made 782bhp at 1525 rpm.
|
seriously?
|
yes
|
see:
|
that **** never ran right
|
i dont remember any rotary with 1000hp running correctly.
|
at least for a long period of time...
|
ive been thinking about putting this 6.0 into my car though, but I'll need a t-900000000 to run with it , I'll need a big screen so i dont suck in people walking down the street when i boost

Many people think that doubling the litre's on a Rotary can tell you the equivalent piston powerplant it has. I.E. Our 1.3 Litre motor's are similiar to a 2.6 litre 4/5/6 cyllander car. 10 psi on 2.6 litre piston can probably do 255 no? Who knows...
Anyways, take 2.6 (787B) and double it and it's 5.2, round up to 6 litre's...and...I'm gay? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png |

The engine's in the srt-4 impressed me, but I later realized it is the same engine that is in the 2005 Chrsyler GT Cruiser. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683664.gif |

That one would make a pretty big rotary clock.

HMMMMmmmm

The E-shaft would bust your balls.
Here it is during assembly: http://208.62.166.66:82/guest/pics/big_rotary.jpg |
You could put your foot through the exhaust port.
I bet that housing would flex visibly on the power strokes.. |
a two or 3 rotor of that would be great for a boat
|
that is just amazing

[snapback]743676[/snapback] [/quote] maybe not that big of a boat but something pretty big |
I wonder how big the Hitachi's are on that sucker.
Think of a multi-rotor. I don't think they could make an e-shaft that big. |

[snapback]743688[/snapback] [/quote] i dunno some of the diesel engines out there are ginormous, someone posted picks of a 10 cylinder diesel that was in some huge boat or something on here a while ago, it looked like you could walk across the pistons. kevin. |

[snapback]743740[/snapback] [/quote] that i did not know, id be amazed at the size of the raw aluminum block first, then seeing the machine that cuts it id be even more amazed. kevin. |
Haha anyone else remember Colin's photochopped turbo version? Where is that?
Mark |
I belive that huge rotary was meant for an industrial generator. 600hp at 1500 RPM or somthing, I remember reading about it a while ago.
