  • That's the plan, Herbert. This motor is still running strong, and again this video is incredibly old. Nevertheless, I've been pondering a 20B as of late...=)

  • @Rotaryisgarbage, no sir, still rotary and still running strong. Compression test shows good compression and I got the oil changed along with the plugs, ready for this season. =)

  • @ AtzengamerMemphis - LOL, thanks man. :) This video is actually very old, and my car has been fixed for quite some time. Thanks for the support though! I appreciate it!! =)

  • @ langjaijono - I wish that was the case. This is an old video, and I've rebuilt the motor since then. 2 apex seals were flat out shattered in the rear rotor housing. No amount of revving on earth would've fixed it....lol. All it would've done was score up the rotor housings some more. :P

  • @Rotaryisgarbage - Don't get me wrong, I'd go LS1 in a heartbeat if this blows. I just decided to give the Rotary a fighting chance, now that I know it's built properly. :) But yes, there will be a V8 going in if this motor lets go...

  • @Rotaryisgarbage...

    Uhhh, no...I don't recall blaming myself for it. This motor failed because 2 apex seals split in the rear housing. They were atkins seals (installed prior to me owning the car), which are known for being brittle. Combine that with the fact that the motor was making 370RWHP for a year and a half and it was enough to blow them. It had nothing to do with my maintenance, but nice try. =) Now I'm running RA 3mm black superseals, so this won't be happening again.
