You know what, i've been thinking about this for a while now and the only thing I cant figure out is the E-shaft. I basically wanna take a junkyard engine and make a 1 rotor for like a pulling or racing lawnmowe, and mabye even go and do generators and ect as I work on a potato farm. Can someone help me figure this out, like can I just make this engine simple like a lawn mower or what? I just cant figure out how to cut the e-shaft, will I be welding something back on or can I technically go with out it? Basically I wanna take even more stuff off a non complicated engine lol .

The machine time alone will cost you hundreds. It's one of those situations where if you don't already know exactly what to do, or have the right tools to do it, then you're screwed.

talk to Carl Hayward in the UK if you have the cash he's looking for a customer to build a high reving single rotor turbo. Carls Website http://www.mazdarotary.co.uk/

I think a single rotor would work good for a go-cart or a trumph or MG. This is with a turbo or bridgeporting. The small engine would fit easily and generate a bit of power.
