I've seen the atkins single rotor engine. Is there anyone else out there who makes a single rotor engine. How about a tranny, something that would fit in a mini engine bay and still maintain fwd. Been some rotary nuts on the mini forum wanting to go rotary, and i've been entertaining the idea of a turbo charged single rotor. Any creative ideas out there?

single rotor engines are very unstable, thats why mazda discontinued them prior to the 10A engine.
|
Do you have any kind of documentation or some links?
|
measure it up, i think the width (if the motor is sideways to keep the fwd) is your limit.

Here is a 12A Torbo 1 rotor that Pettit racing made. You might want to contact them. From what I understand this car is really fast too.

A guy in georgia makes 1 2 and 3 rotor motors of his own design. I'll see if i can get info tomorrow on if he wants to sell them. Last time I heard from him, the single rotor turbo was making 200hp and 100ft/lbs. I'll send you a PM, my boss will be driving his 3 rotor Spice GTP car in june, so i'll se firsthand how his products are https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
Convert the car to rear drive and put a stock 13b 4 port in it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif |
Excellent info!! Keep it coming!

A 1rotor gokart sounds fun.

I have seen in person a 63 cooper s with a ZETEC ford in it, The car was very fast, and all the motor had was a milled down head for a little more squeeze
|
I was thinking of doing a FWD rotary Geo Metro. Those cars are hella light and hella cheap too.
|
Paul Yaw was trying to produce one but I don't know how far he got with it.
