I reside in the mile high area, Longmont to be precise. Let's just say I have an unofficial PHD in rotary engines and while I highly regard them as a wonderful piece of machinery I must face the fact that they're getting old and parts are pricey and not usually reusable.
I am focusing my attn. in my 1989 Mazda RX-7 that previously had a Series 5 N/A 13B engine in it. I have owned over 8 of these cars and wrecked my dream car a Series 5 Turbo II in mint shape.
This is the engine I will will be swapping in with any luck I will have it in my home Sunday. LC9 5.3 Aluminum engine.
Hopefully it will look something like this
A proper introduction also requires some of my other cars and projects.
