I don't know how long Greg is going to leave us in the dark. I forwarded the pictures to a friend of mine that is running a Mazda Rotary in his RV and he recognized it right away (note his comments below). Thought Greg might find my friend Scott a useful resource, as he has been running his rotary for a couple years.

This is a 20B Rotary it has three rotaries, mine has two rotaries. I see it has a turbo changer on it, depending on how it is set up your looking at over 300 hp. I believe this engine could put out 600-700 hp at 10000 rpm.
Your looking at lots of heat. This guy will need good vents in the right places to vent out the heat around his exhaust system. What kind of gear box is on it? It looks like it might be a little small for that horse power? I wonder what is that in front, water or oil cooler? He is going to need more stuff on his set up. It sure is looking real good so far!
