Now how cool is that photo? The father of the rotary engine saw the potential for a rotary in a 914. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif)

actually, there was a previous thread about that car. it started it's life as a 914/6 and was converted to a wankel rotary in the very early days ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Andy |

Thanks for the welcome Scott!
Did I see that correctly? Felix wankel had a 914? I would like to see their set-up. I don't really expect much power out of a stock N/A 13B. My plans were to upgrade to a turbo (or find a way to supercharger the N/A) later on. I have three side shift trannies... all three are questionable, especially the one with the stress cracks in the bellhousing. I want to find one good case and rebuild it... unless it is more economical to start with a 930 and convert it to midengine. Ha ha ha ... I guess not. |

actually, that's not too hard. and probably cheaper in the long run ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) Andy |
