I owned a 74 RX2 in high school. It Once you get used to burning oil like petrol you cant help but love the engine. I have always thought a rotary 914 would be fun. No torque, but you have so much powerband at the top end that it really doesnt matter.
The exhausts on these engines run very hot. Just a thought when you are running headers and muffler around cables. |
