Ed,

Cool video.  Love that sound!  Too bad the 3-rotor will likely never be produced in mass again.  Good thing it will most likely outlast my flying career.

Ah, Mike.  You think perhaps you joke about the 24B.  Take a look at the video of this Mazda Concept car With perhaps a 24B in it!!!  If the 2 rotor 1600cc is suppose to put out around 250HP the 3 rotor 1600 should blow everything with pistons out of the air (figurative speaking of course)

Yes, compared to the car installation, even our busiest aircraft installation looks anemic.

Well, rather than replace my older 91 13B with  a Renesis, I may just wait for the 16B (but, I won't hold my breath {:>))

Hi Ed,

Your off list help on the number of studs on the RX-7 throttle body paid
off.  I never could see the fourth nut, but I stuck a socket and
extension on the fourth corner and it locked on to something.  After
turning it a while, the throttle body came right off.

I always wondered why people would let the oil injector feed lines get
brittle and crack without checking them once in a while.  Now I know.
Who the hell could ever find them without a shop manual.  There are
more hoses, wires, and devices attached to that engine and I don't even
want to know what they are for.

The 1600 cc engine is beautiful, thanks for the pictures.  If they put
it in a car, they will add so much junk that you won't ever see the
engine.

I like old cars with a few modern improvements, like electronic
ignition and EFI.  This week I started my '74 Suburban for the first
time in a year.  It has electronic ignition, manual choke, and an
electric fuel pump.  After charging the battery overnight, it started
right up.  After 60 miles on the highway it was running as good as
ever.  (That only cost me about 25 bucks for gas which is why it
hadn't been started for a year.)

Bob W.
