Sounds like a very interesting swap that would probably require a ton of fabrication both in the engine placement in the bay and the wiring harness. Built, the 13B is a beast of a motor and if it's balanced right, what redlines these motors generally is that you can't get enough fuel to them. 10-12K redlines are not unheard of and if it's built right- you're still making substantial power up in that range. Short of its weak points (apex seals; housing seals) the Wankel is great design. These motors bare weigh closer to about 200 lbs- what adds all of the weight is the turbo system and the other goodies. |
